Brian Bobbitt is an elite golf instructor. After suffering from the S word (shanks) for a couple…read morerounds, I decided I needed a lesson and went to talk to Bryan at the range. He was in between lessons and fixed me up within 3 swings FOR FREE. He is incredible selfless and will go the extra mile for his students. Since then brian has become a friend of mine and has helped me shave 10 strokes off my handicap in a little more than a year. He is an absolute wizard. From club fitting, launch monitor analysis, state of the art recording devices and lesson tools, he has absolutely helped transform my game. I even brought my fiancé with me one lesson and he worked with both of us. She had never touched a club and by the end of the lesson was making consistent solid contact. Couldn't recommend a better guy or coach for anyone who is looking to take their game to the next level.

I have been coming to see Brian for golf lessons for 20+ years. He does an amazing job of helping…read moregolfers of all ages and experience improve their swing. He is a great communicator and uses state of the art technology to analyze and improve golf swings in as short as one lesson. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to improve their swing regardless of their level

So I didn't have a reason to interact with any of the staff. There's plenty of parking, even when it's busy. If they put up more shade then it would've met all of my needs.

I am an absolutely beginner, never having even picked up up a golf club, and I was a little intimidated by the idea of playing golf before I attended High Heel Golfer's workshop. I was happy to get to learn the basics of golf, both on the course and through Jenn's Golf For Business etiquette class. Once I learned that it doesnt matter if you are a "good" golfer, as long as you follow rules of golf etiquette (like not slowing down the game or stepping in someone's "line"), you can still play with more advanced players for business or for fun! I learned so much in her one-day workshop and I look forward to working with Jenn to continue to improve and learn more about how to utilize golf for business!

We made our reservations online exactly 90 days before our tee time. The cost per player was definitely on the high side, especially with the additional $50 per person non-refundable booking fee, but for a bucket-list experience, we felt it was worth it. Fortunately, we were able to secure back-to-back tee times for the entire group. The gift shop was enormous--probably the largest golf shop I've ever visited. I would recommend checking out the discount section first, as there were plenty of quality items available at reduced prices. The staff throughout the facility were exceptionally friendly and helpful. A special shoutout goes to the gentleman handling the tee time check-in, who took the time to provide a brief history of the course, which added to the overall experience. We played the North Course, and it was extremely busy. The pace of play was very slow, making for a long day on the course. That said, the weather was perfect, and the scenery was every bit as beautiful as advertised. One unexpected highlight was watching military helicopters fly overhead throughout our round, which added a unique touch to the experience. Overall, we're glad we had the opportunity to play such an iconic course. However, given the cost and pace of play, it's probably a one-time experience for our group, and we likely wouldn't feel the need to return.

There are four big pine trees with separate retaining walls around three of them for owners to sit down. With it being so close to the bay, there's often a nice breeze that goes through the park. There's no divide between small dogs and big dogs, so it's best to just keep an eye on your dog, and many owners around here are usually respectful. The street parking immediately adjacent to the park is free, however, it has a limit of 30 minutes, and the parking meter workers are strict on it if they're around. I bring my dog here around lunch time because those who live/ work in the area tend to bring their dogs during their break time and my dog gets his socialization time. They close 8am-11am MWF for maintenance/ cleaning. Currently, both gates are broken so it's not as secure as it should be, and who knows when the city will actually fix it. There're a few agility structures and a water dispenser. The children's park itself looks pretty cool for kids with a lot of structures with slides and swings. There's also another separate area with fixed exercise equipment that looks well- maintained. The water feature in the park is a water feature, not a pool.

Where can you find a large art sculpture and the many areas made of wood and the climbing is for exercise.

Childrens park one of the best educational parks and for the many structures you can have fun the whole day.

One thing I noticed is that I haven't really seen any lifeguards around, so if you don't know how to swim, I wouldn't recommend climbing down into the water. I also see a lot of people walking their dogs here, which is something I personally like.
