Tuscan Ridge Golf Club

I booked a tee time online for a discounted rate. Drove 20 minutes to the course to hear the GM tell me they couldn’t honor my tee time and that I would have to call GolfNow to resolve the refund.
The course has an interesting layout, so it gets one star. It’s widely known to be in the worst condition of any course in the area. Booking through GolfNow it can be worth playing for $ 10. But apparently they don’t honor their agreements.

Great green complexes. Interesting design. This course has a variety of holes and is fun to play day in day out. I love the views!

Amazing wedding venue! My husband and I just got married there and everything was perfect! Nathan and Jerrad met with us whenever we wanted and made sure that everything was exactly how we wanted.

I took a few minutes to read the prior posts, wondering whether Tuscan has made progress over the past few years. I am pleased to report that the greens are in good shape, while the fairways are better than they have been. I’m not saying the fairways are great, but they are playable.
However, Tuscan has serious problems. Yesterday I reached my limit. Our tee time was 2:16. When my playing friend and I got there, we were informed we would have to play the front 9 twice, due to a wedding being scheduled at the clubhouse for early evening. I asked whether we could start on the back 9. No deal — the wedding party would be having photographs taken on the 18^th green! Are you freak’n kidding me?
We got our cart and headed over to the first tee. By the third green, it was obvious the cart (a hand-​me-​down from another local, but successful, course) would not last the day. We nursed it up to 5^th, resting it and one of us getting out to walk on the slight uphills. (Nope. Neither of us are porkers.) From the 5^th back to the turn is a downhill run. All good.
At the turn (is that what you call it when you have to play the front 9 twice?), we asked for and received a different cart. That cart stopped dead in the path on the slight pitch up to the 4^th tee box!!! Are you kidding me?
I would like to say this is the first time this happened to me at Tuscan Ridge. ITS NOT! I know, I know. I’m not looking too smart by now. I wanted Tuscan to succeed. It is a challenging course, with spectacular vistas. However, this was my last time. I’m done.
Tuscan needs to get the wedding issue fixed. Why is it necessary to close half the course for a wedding? The cart issue has been ongoing for years. The canteen (it’s NOT a restaurant) closes at 4 in the afternoon. That cold beer you want? Bring it yourself. Hazards include broken-​down equipment around the course, with dead carts scattered here and there.
It’s a beautiful day. Think I’ll head to Bidwell.

Well, played for 15 dollars, and really would not play there again for more than 10. Course is in terrible shape. Pretty much looks like someone said, hey let’s put a golf course here and maybe got half way done. Because the fairways and non-​descript scrub are indistinguishable you are guessing off the tee a lot with no idea if you are going the right direction, and if you do go in the right direction don’t expect your ball to stay in the fairway. Hard and dry and it will roll any which way. Hit several «good» shots and could not find my ball.

I was there 11÷10÷12, payed $ 41 for golf with a cart. Price was awesome, course was tough, and fairways almost non-​existent. Don’t let the pictures mislead you, the fairways are horrible. I drove from Sacramento and I was not too pleased with the course conditions. Guy at the counter says «we’ll give you a cart with GPS, but won’t guarantee it will work though». If you’re used to «decent» golf courses, or have to drive for more than 30 minutes… this probably isn’t worth it.
