Cherry Island Golf Course is located in: Elverta, CA

Phone: 916-991-7293

Website: http://www.empiregolf.com/empire/cherryisland

Course History:

Robert Muir Graves, one of the most celebrated course archtitects today designed this course in 1990. It has become an area favorite with most golfers and offers just the right level of challenging play for golfers of all skill levels. The course is lush and scenic and is a great place to relax and get away from it all. It is tucked away, so we included directions on how to get to the course below.

What You Need to Know:

This is truly a full service golf course with a great grill, pro shop and lessons. The practice facility is terrific and offers numerous opportunities to improve on your game. This is a public course but we still recommend wearing appropriate golf attire.

You can register your tee time by calling the number above, but you may want to check out their website as they post frequent specials to save on their already reasonable green fees.

Playing Hints:

Water hazards are plentiful here and there are a few that are quite tricky. The first hole is clear of these but the sharp dog leg will definitely test your skills. The third, fourth, sixth and seventh holes all feature large lakes, so you'll want to try to be as accurate as possible on your tee shots.

The thirteenth hole is bisected by a creek, so you'll need to watch your tee shot here. Some players may prefer to hit it short and then iron over the creek to be on the safe side. The eighteenth hole is no gimme and meanders along with plenty of rough patches to keep you guessing. This one will take some time to master, but you should be able to birdie it with practice.This is a long course so we really recommend making use of a cart unless you are in tip top shape.

• Tee Times Green Fees Golf

Plumas Pines Golf Course is located in Graeagle, CA

Phone: 530.836.1420

Website: http://www.plumaspinesgolf.com

Course History:

This is a terrific course on a resort that is still open to the public. If you're looking for a challenging round set in a beautiful location, this is the perfect course. Since it opened it became incredibly popular with the locals and the stay and play packages have since made it a favorite among guests. Overall, given the green fees and the amenities, this is truly a great value.

What You Need to Know:

There are numerous lesson plans available here and it is a great place to go if you're new to the game or want to get a few tips on improving your score. They offer an eclub that features even lower rates on their already cheap green fees and the pro shop is incredibly well stocked.

You can book your tee time by calling the number above, but we recommend checking their site first. They do run frequent specials and they have several offers that are well worth checking out.

We recommend wearing traditional golf attire since this is a resort course. They don't specifically state that there is a dress code, but it is best to respect the course and err on the side of caution. The practice facilities are really top-notch and at the end of the day, the grill is the perfect place to relax. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Playing Hints:

This is a course that is well planned out and offers just enough of a challenge to give pros a good game while not being terribly intimidating to a novice. The terrain is a bit challenging at times and we recommend a cart unless you're in terrific shape. There are plenty of hazards that keep the game fun, so you're best bet is to try to aim for the center of the fairway with most of the holes.

The eighteenth hole is a real killer, but if you've got a great drive, you should be able to get a birdie without a problem.

Tokatee Golf Course is located in McKenzie Bridge, OR

Phone: 800-452-6376

Website: http://www.tokatee.com/

Course History:

The name Tokatee means, "Place of Restful Beauty," and there are few places on earth that embody this phrase as closely as this course does. This is a rare course that was inspired and built by the nearby residents and they shaped a course that has gone down in history as a favorite among pros and novices alike.

What You Need to Know:

You can register your tee time using their online system or by calling the number listed above. They do offer frequent specials on their website, and you can even get a free round of golf, so we highly recommend stopping by there first before you call.

This is a family run course and we found it to be very relaxed and laid back. You won't have to worry too much about dress code here, but we still recommend a nice sleeved shirt and shorts. Denim is pretty much frowned on, even at public courses, so it's best to leave that at home.

The Pro Shop is simply terrific and offers a wide selection, as well as a very cute little coffee shop, lessons and a whole lot more. The catering service onsite is terrific and we loved the box lunches you can take out on the course. If you prefer to eat in, they've got a great menu with traditional, good Old American food like hamburgers, hot dogs and everything else you'd expect from a great family place like this.

Playing Hints:

While this is a fun course, don't let it fool you. It can get pretty difficult at times. However, even novices can master it with a little practice and pros find it still challenging enough to offer them a very good game.

The course layout is pretty straightforward, but accuracy is still key to getting par here. Watch out for the numerous bunkers that are filled with White Idaho sand - they are incredibly tricky. The fourteenth hole is one of the biggest challenges on the course. As you approach the green, make sure you don't overhit the ball. There's a big lake just waiting on the other side and it is notorious for pulling your ball right in.
