Poppy Ridge is always in great shape. In the winter drainage makes this one of the best places to play and in the summer the speed of the fairways and greens can be scary. The course is fair and challenging for all levels as there are many tee boxes. The only real defense against a hot player is the wind. Note the windmills only a few miles away should give a warning to high ball hitters. Best value in the East Bay for this quality of golf course.

Best Muni in the Bay Area. Have played the course for the past 5 years and it has significantly improved the past couple. Greens are excellent. Driving range could use some help and there are still a few wet spots but the course is as good as a bay area muni will get. Good value

Conditions were horrible and unfortunately do not seem to be improviing. Just a few feet off the fairway = mudd. Greens were very slow but the biggest problem is lack of maintenance. Unfortunate as it is an interesting layout.

Played Arroyo Trabuco last month and while the course is fairly short, even from the tips, it is a fun challenge. The first hole conditions are not representative of the rest of the course as the 1st hole fairway and green are a bit chewed up. Once out on the course it is a pleasure to work around the canyons and forced carries presented by the back tees. Greens are true and run about 10 on the meter. The clubhouse is a real treat and Sunday brunch after your early morning round is excellent! Highly recommended. A real gem.
