Greens and sand traps are in good shape. Fairways and tee boxes can be better, but not bad for a muni course. Without the wind, you can score well in this course. Overall, a good layout and the green fees are very reasonable, for a weekend. Finished 18 holes in 4 hrs and 15 minutes

Always a great time. Love the links style. Coming from the sac area and escaping the heat for the bay area. Greens are in great shape and rolling well.

Love grass practice range is a humbling experience; hitting off grass is unparalleled. I hadn't been there in years and had forgotten how wonderful the facility and staff are. I plan to return with an improved game.

A nice, flat, public course by the water and airport. A number of people have commented on folks not replacing/repairing their divots and this is true. Folks need to be more considerate. I come here mainly for the driving range which is one of the very few in the area that the public can practice off real grass. It does not have a cover so it can get hot on sunny days.

Another course that air planes taking off when you tee off, as it's situated right by the Oakland airport. Other than this, this is a ok course to kill sometimes with friends as there's not much design.
