ROLLING GREENS GC OF GRANITE BAY

The Sierra Nevada foothills serve up a daily test of precision and course management across this Robert Trent Jones Jr. design, where elevation changes of 200 feet create dramatic approach shots into well-guarded greens. Ancient granite outcroppings frame several holes, most memorably the par-3 16th that plays downhill to a green carved into the natural rock formation. Despite heavy public play, conditioning remains surprisingly solid for the price point, making this one of the Sacramento area's most honest values for serious stick work.
