A quick round |
2721 Elverta Road Sacramento, CA 95843 United States +1 916 334 5764 |
You can play 18 beautifully maintained and challenging holes in less than 3 hours. While this public course measures only 3,100 yards from the back tees, it is no pushover. Playing to a par 58, the holes measure from 77-355 yards with just enough water, sand and trees to keep you sharp. Greens and fairways are the equal of any private course and plenty of food and drink is available in the clubhouse. Greens fees are USD28 on weekdays and USD32 on weekends, including the price of a golf cart rental. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Soft spikes and hard hat |
8301 Freeport Blvd Sacramento, CA 95832 United States +1 916 665 2020 http://www.capitalcitygolf.com... |
Long is not too important, but straight is mandatory to score well on this course. It has 6,118 yards of narrow fairways. Several fairways on this 18-hole, par 71 links-type public course parallel each other, so watch out for cross-fairway play. In other words, be ready to duck and cover. Before noon the greens fees and include a cart. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Old and affordable course |
6801 Freeport Blvd Sacramento, CA 95822 United States +1 916 433 2283 http://www.http://www.bingmalo... |
This is one of area's first public courses. The trees lining most fairways are fully grown and best avoided. Greens are on the small side, but there are no long forced carries over water. In addition to the old 6,558-yard 18-hole layout, the course offers a more-open, but still challenging, nine-hole executive course. Call or check the website for price information.

Nine holes along the river |
2 Cadillac Drive Sacramento, CA 95825 United States +1 916 922 5861 |
This scenic little 3,074-yard, nine-hole layout runs right along the American River near the J Street Bridge. Although owned and operated by Sacramento State University, the course is open to the public. While there are some testing holes, this course is considered a good course for beginners or for a quick round after work. Wind can be a factor both for your golf shots and your skin.

Tough but Beautiful Course |
1111 Catta Verdera Road Sacramento, CA 95648 United States +1 916 645 7200 http://www.cattaverdera.com/ |
The lush narrow fairways, lined by very mature oak trees in between meandering creeks and rock outcroppings, make a score of par-72 a stern test for the best. While the course is new, the designer's sensitivity to natural elements, and hazards, gives it the visual appeal of a much older course. Greens fees are $45 on the weekdays and $60 on the weekend. Cart rental is $15. The course has a dress code. All men must wear shirts with a collar and blue jeans are not allowed. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Watch the 1st and 18th |
2360 Elverta Road Sacramento, CA 95626 United States +1 916 575 4653 http://empiregolf.com/empire/c... |
In 1991, Golf Digest selected this course as one of the Top-Ten New Municipal Courses. Despite what it seems you are not driving through the gates of a private club; this is one of the newer and already popular public courses in Sacramento. Dry Creek and Sierra Creek run adjacent to the lush 6,562-yard layout that offers both challenge and opportunity to golfers of all skill levels. Greens fees are $19 Monday through Thursday and $23 Friday through Sunday. Cart rental is $22. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great golf package |
7200 Garden Highway Sacramento, CA 95837 United States +1 916 922 5209 http://www.tealbendgolf.com/ |
This course may sound like a tough track, but it really plays shorter than its posted 7,061 yards from the back tees. No long carries over hazards are required, and the par-five 17th hole gives up lots of eagles to players who choose to hit over the lake. Fees include a cart and a bucket of balls for loosening up at the driving range. Note: Non-metal spikes are required here. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Challenging terrain and full services |
2323 Rockwell Drive Sacramento, CA 95616 United States +1 530 753 4900 http://www.eaglgolf.com |
With rolling hills, nooks and crannies along the very long fairways, this course really penalizes golfers not able to hit straight. On the extreme northern edge of Davis among the new Wildhorse development (no affiliation), this course is currently a work of art in progress. There is a wide range of practice facilities onsite, including driving ranges and variously configured greens. Greens fees include a cart, and range balls. Review © 2007, Wcities |
