I like this course a lot. We drove 80 miles each way to play it last fall. I won a certificate for a free round, so we drove there again last week. They advertise that it is a Johnny Miller design, but I like the front nine (mostly not a Miller design) better than the back nine (mostly Miller designed). Holes 4 - 9 have an interesting variety of challenges. The golfer has to maneuver around creeks, lakes, vineyards, hills and valleys. Course conditions were good even in February, and pace of play was fine. The staff is helpful and friendly. They want out of their way to help my friend who had car trouble on our first visit.
Would travel: 60-120 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Layout, Price, Ambiance, No Houses on Course, Staff, Clubhouse
