Cherry Island Golf Course, Elverta, CA

One of my Sacramento muni favorites at a good price: the greens are always in good shape, and the course can test your skills. Hole #1 is strange and sets a bad tone, but there are lots of nice holes. A bonus-we play very fast rounds here.

this is a nice course to play the first hole gets you ready for the rest of the day. If you like a challenge this is the place to play if you are just starting or have been playingfor a long time.

First time playing here. I will be back. Loved the challenge for a new golfer it a lot of work. I did enjoy the day with friends

Cherry Island is in need of some additional acerage. Built on donated land, its 18 holes are squeezed into a land area which would support perhaps 16 regulation holes. The first, nineth, thenth and 18th holes are unique. Trees and Dry Creek dictate their layout. The course has OB inside its boundaries in order to players hitting across adjoining holes. Course is fairly flat with some moguls. Not too many f/w traps to challenge one off the tee. Good clubhouse and restaurent. Range and practice greens are good. Fun course for mid to high handicappers. Some greens are very challenging to putt. Good bang for the buck here. Can be fun in the wind!

narrow fairways but extremly fun
