Course History:

This is the oldest golf course west of the Mississippi River and was opened in 1895. It first started out as a nine hole course and was later expanded. Numerous tournaments are played every year at this amazingly beautiful and historically rich course. During World War II the army took over the course and to this day you can still see some of their bunkers.

What You Need to Know:

The course does have a cancellation policy for tee-times. You must give them 24 hours notice or you will be charged the full green fee. They do have a dress code and all players must wear collared shirts. Please note that tank tops are not allowed and the course also has a soft spike policy. In addition, no glass containers are allowed on the course at any time.

All golfers must have their own clubs. Rentals are available. Absolutely no spectators are allowed on the course at any time. Tee times can be booked online or by calling ahead and are available up to 14 days in advance.

The Mare Island Café is open for all meals, including breakfast. You can get their menu from the website. Beer and liquor are served at the clubhouse.

Playing Hints:

The first four holes are pretty straightforward, but the only par five, hole five can be a bit more difficult. It's best to try to power the ball as far as possible and then use a 3 or 5 wood to get on the green from there.

The eighth hole is definitely tricky and is cut in half by a large lake. Again, your best bet is to use your driver to get over it in one shot and then iron out the rest of the hole.

Although the fifteenth hole looks like an easy par three, you'll have to be especially careful to avoid the bunkers on either side of the green.
