Brentwood Golf Club

Brentwood Golf Club is a public, Ted Robinson-designed golf complex in the Mount Diablo foothills of east Contra Costa County — a 27-hole facility built around three nines (Creekside, Hillside and the walking-only Diablo) that combine into a championship par-72 layout stretching to about 6,800 yards. Opened in 2000, it is a go-to for public golf on the far-eastern edge of the Bay Area.

The headline round pairs the Creekside (3,485 yards) and Hillside (3,343 yards) nines into a par 72, while the Diablo nine (3,144 yards, walking only) adds a third option, and each nine has four sets of tees. Expect bunkers, water, mature trees, wildlife, undulating greens, doglegs and some elevation change, with several long par-4s among the toughest holes — Creekside's ninth often plays into the wind with water right, and Hillside's long ninth brings water down the left.

Difficulty is manageable for all levels, with a slope around 120, and the course is walkable, making it both beginner-friendly and interesting for better players who want to maneuver around the hazards. The rolling terrain and varied routing give each nine its own character.

Practice and amenities are a draw: the course lists a driving range, a practice putting green and a two-bay simulator, with professional instruction available, plus a well-stocked pro shop. The on-site Palm Tree Restaurant and Sushi Bar serves a Korean-Japanese fusion menu alongside burgers, salads and sandwiches — a more distinctive clubhouse dining option than most public courses.

Green fees are moderate, roughly $39 to $69 depending on day and time, with carts included on the regular nines; tee times can be booked online through GolfNow. The course sits off Balfour Road in Brentwood, an easy drive from Antioch, Oakley and Discovery Bay.
