Too Wet & Muddy

We played on a very cold & windy day & there was Golf Cart restrictions on the Golf Course due to the extremely wet & muddy conditions.
Also way too much grounds crew personnel on the course that got it the way of play

Solid track but too slow

Purposely played mid commute between LA and Sacramento. It’s a good looking course, big, occasional water and some nice doglegs. Greens recently punched, so no comment there. I like the track. I’d say length is it’s defense. Pace was stinky, which is a complaint often seen about this place, and no Marshall to be found, which nobody likes on a weekend morning.

Just a cool course

Always enjoy playing here. Fairways were immaculate, tee boxes good and greens were fast. People need to fix their pitch marks though, as the greens weren’t the truest I’ve played recently. The layout is fantastic, coupled with the surrounding scenery it makes for a unique round of golf.

Poor management/course way overbooked

Stopped by to play on my way for a business trip to San Francisco and course is in good shape. But, the course overbooked and round took 5 hours and 45 minutes. Waited every tee box, every approach shot. Was ridiculous. Just frustrating. Will play there again.

Dragonfly golf course review

Greens were bad and very sandy, fairways were dry and sandy, I had a lot of trouble with the golf carts, I stayed on the cart path the whole time and it kept turning off saying I was off the cart path, it was very annoying and frustrating, did not have a good experience at all, the pace of play was terrible, there was a group in front of me that kept losing their ball and kept looking for it in the deep rough knowing well they wouldn’t find it, I wouldn’t recommend tus course

Nice Day for Golf

The weather was beautiful & even though it is still winter & the fairways are dormant they played well with a lot of roll. The pace of play was Great & the greens are not the best I’ve seen them but still in good shape. Dragonfly remains my favorite public golf course in the Fresno Area.
