California Oaks: Where Your Golf Game Goes to Die (and So Does the Course) If you’ve ever wanted to experience what it’s like to golf on a post-apocalyptic botanical experiment, California Oaks Golf Course has you covered. Let’s start with the highlights: The greens are actually nice… if you’re into putting on shag carpet. They’re slow — painfully slow. So slow that you might have time to Google “how to putt on moss” between strokes. Beyond that? Yikes. The sand traps aren’t traps — they’re ancient ruins. I’m not sure if they were ever bunkers or just some guy’s backyard in the 90s. They’re mostly filled with weeds, rocks, and sand that’s more “cement mixer” than “beach vibes.” You’ll need a pickaxe, not a wedge. The rough? More like “Lost Woods.” Hit a shot two feet off the green? Goodbye ball. It’s gone forever, swallowed by grass so deep it might be hosting a family of raccoons. The fairways aren’t much better — mow jobs seem to be a once-a-season kind of thing, and when they do mow, they just leave the grass clippings to rot in the sun like someone said, “Eh, nature’ll figure it out.” No bathrooms. No beverage cart. No hope. I hope you brought a Gatorade bottle and a strong bladder. You won’t see a cart girl, a working restroom, or even a functioning bench (half are splintered or busted like someone teed off with them). Final thoughts? This course is a hazard in itself. Not just sand or water — the actual course. Your best drive could land in a dried runoff ditch and ricochet into the abyss. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll probably lose more balls than strokes. If you’re looking for a cheap round and a story to tell your friends about where your 7-iron went to die, this is your spot. Rating: 1 out of 5 stars — and that one star is for the comedy of it all.

Believe everything others have said in their reviews. No functioning restrooms at pro shop & on the course. Has lots of potential but lacks the elements of a great course. Nice wildlife such as geese, ducks, pond turtles, birds, etc 🦆🐢

I’ve played over 100 courses and this was easily the WORST! It’s a disgrace to the game of golf. Sure it’s cheap at $35 but it is worth only $5. Do yourself a favor and just go to the driving range!

Recently visited this golf course and was thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere is incredibly serene, making it a perfect escape for a day of golf. The course layout is both challenging and enjoyable, with well-maintained greens and fairways. What truly sets this place apart is the good vibe - friendly staff, quality carts, and fellow golfers who are here for the love of the game. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful round of golf in a beautiful setting.

I've only played in this course one time and sadly this will be the only time. To play 18 holes it costs $50.00 , when I arrived at the location to check in the club house doors were locked and had to wait due to one man running the whole entire operation. Nice guy nothing against him at all, just keep in mind if you want a drink or anything you might be waiting a bit. There is also only one bathroom as well which is kind of inconvenient. Now on to the course, the course is not kept up there are holes on the fairway, overgrown brush, tee off spots barely have any grass the greens have duck and geese poop all over it. So be prepared to get your ball and clubs covered in it. I was really hoping for a great experience since this place is in a gated community and you have to check in with a guard before you enter... But not the case I would recommend going to another course unless you absolutely have to play here.
