About Davis Golf Course
Davis Golf Course opened in 1964 as Davis Municipal Golf Course — locals still call it the Muni — and it was the first course built in the college town of Davis. Kim Connors designed the layout, an 18-hole par 67 that measures just 4,953 yards from its longest tees, making it one of the shortest regulation 18-hole courses anywhere in the greater Sacramento region.
On the course
The short scorecard changes how the course plays rather than making it a pushover. With a par of 67, the round leans on par 3s and short par 4s that average golfers can actually reach in regulation, so scoring comes down to wedge play and putting instead of raw distance off the tee. The terrain is flat Yolo County ground without much in the way of forced carries, and the course still hosts real competition — it is home to the Yolo County Amateur Championship and the Davis City Championship.
Who it suits
For golfers deciding whether to make the trip, the practical case is simple. This is one of the easiest walking courses you will find anywhere: dead flat, compact, and quick, with rounds that move noticeably faster than a typical full-length Sacramento-area 18. Green fees sit at the affordable end of the market, and reviewers consistently single out the value for walkers, even on weekends.
The facility includes a driving range and two putting greens, plus a full slate of lessons for players at every level. That combination — short, flat, cheap, and welcoming — makes the Muni a natural fit for beginners, juniors, and seniors, while better players use it to sharpen the short irons or fit a full 18 into a weekday morning before work.
