Lake Redding’s announced range prices start at $10 a bucket

The Range at Lake Redding announced an October 1, 2026 opening, with $10–$15 buckets and public hours Thursday–Sunday, 11 a.m. until one hour before dusk, according to the September 24 opening announcement. This is the driving-range phase of the former Lake Redding Golf Course’s redevelopment—not the reopening of a complete nine-hole course.
What does a bucket cost?
The September 24 announcement lists these launch prices:
| Bucket size | Price |
|---|---|
| Small | $10 |
| Medium | $12 |
| Large | $15 |
These are range-ball prices, not a green fee. The announcement does not specify ball counts, so ask how many balls each size contains before choosing solely on price.
When can you practice, and what should you bring?
The announced schedule covers Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Closing is tied to dusk rather than a fixed clock time, so leave enough time to finish your bucket before the range closes.
Bring your own clubs. The announcement makes that a requirement and says up to 23 golfers can hit simultaneously. That is capacity, not a guarantee that a hitting spot will be available when you arrive. Source: September 24 announcement.
What is included in the first phase?
Plan a range visit rather than a full round or a night session. The USA TODAY Network’s September 24 report described lighting, covered hitting bays and a short course as future improvements. The final short-course hole count was still unsettled.
That report also said the clubhouse was not expected to open initially and beer-and-wine licensing was still in progress. Do not build your visit around those amenities without checking.
These sources establish the announced launch terms, not current operating status. Before visiting, confirm operation, that day’s closing time and prices with Richard Eramaa at The Range at Lake Redding: (831) 676-7775, the contact named in the opening announcement. Ask whether any short-game areas are available if you want to chip or putt as well as hit a bucket.
