As one of only three golf courses certified “beginner friendly” in the North Bay, the Santa Rosa Fairgrounds Golf Course is a great place to practice your skills or help a golf novice grow theirs. In 2006, the course was redesigned and reopened, focusing on Junior Golf and the continued growth of the sport. The National Golf Course Owner’s Association took notice of this, and awarded beginner friendly certification to the Fairgrounds Golf Course. With 9 holes with 2 sets of tees, the course can play similarly to an 18 hole executive course.
