Course History:

When the course first opened in 1966, it was a simple nine hole executive course. However, the second nine were added soon after and it became an incredibly popular course. The founding fathers of Manteca built this course with their citizens in mind and the attention to detail shows. It is definitely a high class facility, even though it is a public course. The championship level of play is challenging enough to keep pros interested without overcoming the novice player.

What You Need to Know:

Tee times can be reserved by calling the pro-shop. This is a public course, but we still recommend wearing appropriate golfing attire. In addition to the course, you'll also find a full service park, making it a fun getaway for the whole family. Tennis courts are also available to the public on site. The pro-shop is stocked with all of the latest gear and the snack bar is well stocked. This is definitely a family friendly course.

Numerous tournaments are hosted here all year round and it is a very popular destination. We recommend reserving your tee time well in advance to make sure you get the slot you want. Please note that members of the military get a special rate on all green fees. Overall, given the low price, great atmosphere and challenging play, this is one of the nicest courses in the area.

Playing Hints:

The first hole is a bit daunting at first glance, but if you've got a strong drive you can easily do this one in just three shots. Watch out for the green though, it's very fast. The fourth hole is a bit tricky. You'll be pointing to the right, but you're going to want to shoot to the left. If you have a tendency to slice, be aware of the nearby water hazard.

The dogleg on the twelfth hole is a bit challenging for some. Aim to the right for a clear shot to the tee. You don't want to hit this one too long or you'll end up in the field. If you do, the course asks that you take an extra shot and that you do not go into the field to get your ball since it is private property. You'll meet another dogleg on the last hole. For this one, try to keep as close to the center of the fairway by aiming a little left. From there, you'll have a clear shot to the green.
