Vibe Notes: Tucked away in the Oakland Hills with a hidden gem feel. Reviewers describe ‘lots of elevation changes,’ ‘stunning views of the city,’ and ‘every hole is a new and fun challenge.’ The Par 6 18th hole is legendary. Range is described as basic (‘dry dirt track’) but the putting greens are praised. Course condition is rated 3.5/5 and difficulty is rated ‘Hard.’ Fast pace of play overall.
