A must Play Course but be prepared the Greens a very Challenging. The course is located in the Auburn foothills, its fairways are tucked between ridges and small valleys. The sceenry is outstanding with lots of wild life.

First I must say that Mather Golf Course is what I'd call my home course.
With that said the 10 or so public courses I have played and replayed in a 30 mile radius of Sacramento area Mather stands out as a very well maintained course. The fairways are well groomed, and old growth tree lined. Greens are medium in size, are not overly difficult to read; some may say not very challenging but they are typically medium in speed.
It is an old course once operated by the US Air Force so you will see a lot of memorabilia in the club house and the staff have always been courteous and accommodating. I like to walk the course and I rarely feel I’m being pushed while on the course; if I’m lagging I just let the speedster carts play through and always get a thank-you and a tip of the hat.
