Surprisingly, this is such a nice public course not far from cities, like especially their driving range, first time seeing a range with a nice pond view. Like the way their holes are short but they do a good job hide the greens via curves, like Hole 1 and 11, particularly Hole 11, the green is a big slope facing you, your approach shot needs to be 5-7 yards more to compensate the roll back. Lots of short par4, you should be able to get on the greens in 2 shots, but the point is that the greens are tricky to putt. In general, the tees here will smooth out all the hard things from your week days, enjoyed playing here a lot.

Great place to start a jog or hike up the Brandon trail. It's pretty steadily uphill for a while but you're rewarded with the best friggin view of the bay once you get there.

Attended a wedding here. The venue is lovely. Tucked away and private, you never knew you were in the bustling Bay Area. The food and service provided was excellent. Also, they provided a lovely young lady who drove my parents in a golf cart to the ceremony. Now that's service! Highly recommend this venue for a special event!

What a fun course, Redwood Canyon surprised me by its challenge and beauty. Built into an amazing wooded canyon, this lush par 71 was a tight property that really transported you away from the Bay Area. The course was in good shape and the vibe was perfect for a relaxed round of golf but keep an eye on your ball because there are a lot of hazards from large trees and many creeks. I highly recommend this one if you are in the East Bay.

Actually, for a public course and the price of golf with a cart, my rating should be a 4 1/2. And I bet you if I had been there once all of the renovations were done (drainage, etc) it would have been a 5. First, and most important for me, the people who golf here are laid back and real. Second, it's not a terribly difficult course. Third, it is well priced. As someone who may have a couple Coors Lights and need to pee at some point, they could use an extra bathroom along the course. It's a great course for the price. End of story. I'm looking forward to golfing there in 2020 when the upgrades are done. Also...if you smoke cigars while golfing...buy them before you get there! I made the mistake...and they dont sell them there (since they are a part of East Bay Regional Parks).
