Front 9 fairways not best maintained, though greens very good. Back 9 very challenging holes and entirely different from front 9. Excellent value. Check website for specials such as $30 for two with cart and hotdogs.

Considering spring has not come yet the course is in good condition. It has a few challanging holes and is a good muni. course. A great value to play at $40 for two with cart on a weekend. If you live in the Central California area or visiting it, it is a good place to play.
