Nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills, DarkHorse Golf Club tumbles across a magnificent landscape that once served as a cattle ranch. The course incorporates a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. This tough layout is definitely not for the faint of heart. From short par 3s to monstrous par 5s, this course has a little bit of everything. The severely sloped greens demand accuracy and the bunkers were strategically placed to provide a multitude of shot-making opportunities. Tricky doglegs and uphill and downhill lies aren't the only challenges you'll face, there are also several water hazards that come into play throughout and an abundance of trees that make it even more difficult to navigate your ball. DarkHorse G.C. is situated 50 miles east of Sacramento and though it might be a bit of a drive to get there, local golfers consider the round well worth the trip.

Reader Ratings / Reviews
- I live in Colorado and dicovered this golf course when i visited my brother who lives in Sacramento. I rate this course at least a 9.5 on a scale of 10. the greens are the best i have ever seen. The scenic views are breath taking. when you play golf in colorado with the Rocky mountain views it's hard to rate a course better than this one,but this is the best for the money.
