Course in about as good shape as it may ever be. Greens were like glass and demanded your full attention. Haven't played or practiced much lately so the greens had me scared LOL.

Wasn't in any bunkers (my hiddenbrooke superpower) but they all looked a little crunchy and in need of some sand. Tee boxes could use a leveling otherwise everything else was fantastic. Course playing firm and fast throughout. A real pleasure to play.

It's almost always windy but if you don't mind playing late Golf Now seems to have one 3:30ish tee time a day for less than $30 with cart. Highly recommended and glad to call it my home course.

Great round this morning 6/1/26 riding with buddies Ron and John joined by gker Richard who was a pleasure to meet and play with. Group 1b under beautiful 75 degree weather with about 1.5 clubs of wind today. Our Pop was around 5 hrs keeping up with the group ahead.

Great round this morning 6/1/26 riding with buddies Ron and John joined by gker Richard who was a pleasure to meet and play with. Group 1b under beautiful 75 degree weather with about 1.5 clubs of wind today. Our Pop was around 5 hrs keeping up with the group ahead. They had their downhill range on mats and had a nicely sloped putting green nearby the 1st and 10th tees. My second time here as I played a while ago in 2008 with a buddy. Really enjoyed the layout which is tight in places but looks tighter off the tee vs when your in the fairway you realized you had a little more room to operate. Found many tee shots you are hitting over a rise to a hidden fairway in the distance. A bit more dogleg left to rights here at Spanish Hills. Plenty of greenside bunkers, fairway bunkers and out of bounds to keep the best players honest. They also have a couple water features on holes 10 and 18.

The greens were in great shape very quick true rolls. Would say close to a 11 on the stimp but holding irons nicely. Surprisingly a bit more undulating then they look on approach. Rated 9/10. Star of the course.

Fairways were in above average shape with most all lies in the fairway padded nicely with some minor brown grass here and there but mostly green lush lies. Rated 7.5/10

Tees level and in above average shape. Rated 7.5/10

Was in greenside bunkers on #13 and #16 that contained firmer clay like sand with enough base to hit out of. Rated 7/10

Not much rough on this course and it varied in length depending what hole you were on. Found the rough about a foot or so off many fairways and the lies were great. Rated 7/10

Looked like the facilities were nice and all staff encountered were friendly. The proshop was small but adequate. They did have a snackshop/bar on the range which was pretty cool. Views from the golf course especially the back nine were amazing. If you have an opportunity to play here jump on it. Recommended.

Greens were punched/sanded about a week ago, medium speed and bumpy compared to normal here. Probably 7-10 days from being smooth and quick again. Fairways/Tees very nice with the Bermuda out in full force with warmer temps. Greenside traps really nice, fairway traps have more rocks than I remember from years ago. Fringes mowed down, which is not a good thing on the many holes ... » More

Greens were punched/sanded about a week ago, medium speed and bumpy compared to normal here. Probably 7-10 days from being smooth and quick again. Fairways/Tees very nice with the Bermuda out in full force with warmer temps. Greenside traps really nice, fairway traps have more rocks than I remember from years ago. Fringes mowed down, which is not a good thing on the many holes with false fronts or drop offs from on or coming across greens. But do provide more bump run opportunities when short sided from just off many greens. Many areas of the course have been vericut, which does not affect playability. Rough patchy hit/miss, mowed low. Range, carts, GPS excellent. Restaurant/men's lounge provides decent food in a friendly atmosphere. Recommended overall in spite of the current so-so greens, but play Mountain instead until about June 10th.

Played many rounds on Mountain recently with the Canyon greens recently punched. Course is in very nice shoulder season condition. Greens back to medium fast and smooth. And for the first time in memory, you can stop irons close to their newly made ball mark.

Played many rounds on Mountain recently with the Canyon greens recently punched. Course is in very nice shoulder season condition. Greens back to medium fast and smooth. And for the first time in memory, you can stop irons close to their newly made ball mark. Which creates a whole another set of issues after people are used to there being nothing but a dent to maybe fix if you can maybe find it where an iron landed. I have gotten used to playing for roll out, so coming up a club short is the new normal while I ascertain if this is just a few day issue or if that is the way they are now going to play. But I have seen more divot ball marks on greens in the last week than in the last several years here.
Many areas of the course have been vericut, which does not affect playability. And the same issue on the greens is present in the fairways. Balls plugging or barely rolling when you normally get 50 yards of roll creates a different course.
Bermuda coming out well on the Tee's/fairways, very lush. Rough patchy hit/mniss, mowed low. Mowed low around the greens, you can definitely use putter from well off greenws currently. Which when going over large mounds to a firm, quick green is frequently a safer play IMO. Nice range, carts, GPS. Good restaurant onsite. highly recommended.

Played a twilight round last night. Started and 4:30 and finshed at 8:15. $35 w cart and well worth it.

Found the course to be in immaculate condition.

Tee boxes all clean, level and playable.

Played a twilight round last night. Started and 4:30 and finshed at 8:15. $35 w cart and well worth it.

Found the course to be in immaculate condition.

Tee boxes all clean, level and playable.

Fairways are wide and provide lush coverage that give you an excellent lie followed by great roll out. Some of the best fairways I have found since playing here in N CA.

Rough is wicked. Ball settles down in it and not only makes it hard to find but difficult to advance w/o a big powerful swing.

Then add in the water features (plenty and large/small), the vineyards lining many of the fairways (which of course are all OB) + natural OB areas and you can destroy a round real quick on this course.

Greens are large, undulating and protected by deep large bunkers and were rolling at about 12 which added to the "fun". You really needed a high lofted shot when going for the greens, as they were firm and rolled out when the ball landed. And the rough around the greens was deep if you rolled off.

Traps ( I was in one fairway bunker) were all clean and raked and very playable. Even at that time of day.

The layout of the course is terrific. Lots of great elevation changes on the course. Beautiful scenery of the SF Bay, Napa and over to Santa Rosa and beyond.

Number 14 is a beautiful island green with tee boxes of 165 B, 166 Blue, 150 W, 139 G, 108 R high above the hole.

Very good customer service from everyone. Great restaurant. Large putting greens. Nice driving range. Excellent carts. No GPS bring your own you will need it.

A great course if you are ever in the area. And right next door is another great course called Chardonnay.

And just down the road a few miles further is Napa golf course in Kennedy Park.

Great combination of courses available in this area and all of then are under 25 miles for the most part.

And the best part is its not LA traffic to drive you crazy or take an hour to go 20 miles.

If you look at the pics the nines have been reversed since they were taken.
