I played it at the beginning of January. Midweek for $45ish with a cart. It was worth that but not much more. Greens were ok and fairways were serviceable. I wouldn’t pay weekend prices for the mediocre condition. ...

[quote]-Where did you play?[/quote] 7 nights, 6 rounds, it was a perfect balance IMO. Stayed in St. Andrews at an AirBnB for 6 of them and played courses around there. It was MUCH cheaper to stay in an AirBnB than, say, the Old Course hotel. You can find some nice spots for less than $250/night. D...
Muir Woods sucks anyway, go to Big Basin Redwoods State Park. You could go to Lodi instead of Sonoma/Napa if you're dead set on visiting wineries (no power issues out there)...its a great wine region known for Zin grapes. Or road trip to Tahoe, it's beautiful and only a 3 hour drive. ...

Since you're coming from the airport, then eating in the Mission, I wouldn't suggest going all the way across the city to Lands End, Ocean Beach, Marina, etc. then coming all the way back. Haight is pretty close and plenty of walking and shops to browse. Chinatown is a good idea. In the Missi...
