A Family-Friendly Golf Course Confronts Cheating Couple Over Parking Lot Affair

In an unexpected twist for Skylinks at Buchanan Fields in California, a public 9-hole golf course is embroiled in drama that has little to do with golf. Instead, the drama stems from a couple’s alleged illicit meetings in the far corner of the parking lot.

Skylinks has earned a reputation in East Bay not just for its greens but for the surprising spectacle that unfolded near the recycling bin. While one might expect excitement from a hole-in-one or a fierce competition, this season has showcased an unusual affair.

Last week, an Instagram post from the course drew considerable attention. The post opened with a direct plea to a married woman and her companion, both estimated to be in their late 30s. It implored them to cease their clandestine meetings that have been taking place weekly in the back corner of the Skylinks parking area.

Quoted in the post was a saucy line: “To the late 30’s married wife in the black car who’s having a secret affair with the guy in the smaller silver car please stop.” This blunt public service announcement quickly ignited social media, racking up shares and sparking speculation from Bay Area residents and beyond.

In its closing remarks, the post highlighted Skylinks as a family-oriented golf course, stating, “We’re a family golf course — not some Jerry Springer family destruction zone.” It added a warning: “If it happens again, we’ll drop the footage and watch all hell break loose.” The tone was both humorous and pointed, leaving no doubt as to how the staff felt about the situation.

Insights from the Course Owner

An exclusive interview with the course’s owner, commonly referred to as “Kiwi,” revealed that the post was genuine and the footage of the encounters does exist. Kiwi emphasized that the situation is not a marketing gimmick but rather a community concern.

“We’re a small, community course in Concord — not a drive-thru hookup spot for cheaters,” he said, maintaining a straight face. “This isn’t the kind of hole-in-one we encourage.”

Kiwi noted that over the past two months, staff had observed the same two cars appearing on a specific day of the week in the same empty corner of the lot, which sees minimal legitimate golf traffic.

The Early Bird Encounters

Members of the maintenance crew, who start their shifts around dawn, frequently noticed the black car and silver car pulling into the parking area in quick succession. One staff member lightheartedly remarked, “Here they go again — early bird smash session in the car park,” which soon became a punchline rather than simply an observation.

As this pattern continued, Kiwi grew increasingly concerned. He explained how unsettling it was for a family-oriented environment. With children playing nearby, he found it essential to address the situation. “At a certain point, it’s just gross”, Kiwi stated. “Go to the hotel across the street. It’s 100 yards away and has doors.”

The Viral Fallout

Following the public post’s release, chaos ensued. The message went viral, and business owners began receiving countless direct messages from curious social media users asking for details and even expressing suspicions about whether they were involved.

“We started getting messages from people saying, ‘Hey, I think I know who this is. Send me the footage,’” Kiwi recounted. “No! That’s not what we’re doing here. We want them to stop using our parking lot like a poorly disguised drive-in.”

One man even reached out to clarify if his wife, who drives a black car, was among those being referred to. This level of attention only added to the overwhelming nature of the situation.

A Firm Stance

Despite the escalating curiosity surrounding the footage, Kiwi reassured that it will remain safeguarded for the foreseeable future. “We’ve got the footage, and yes, it’s very clear what’s going on. But no, we’re not releasing it. This is still a family business,” he affirmed.

Amid all the viral fame, Skylinks has garnered newfound attention, which could either benefit the business or complicate situations. After nearly shutting down, Skylinks has revived and thrived, thanks to Kiwi’s efforts. He acquired the course just over a year ago and transformed it into a bustling community center for golf enthusiasts.

A Vibrant Community Hub

Kiwi described Skylinks as a community club rather than a country club, highlighting that it caters to novice players, local families, and lunch-goers wishing to practice their golf skills.

Although the tone of the recent post was laced with humor, the underlying message was serious. While some curious newcomers visited the location out of sheer interest in the notorious dumpster, Kiwi hoped for the excitement to die down and for normalcy to return to the back lot.

A Word to the Cheating Couple

Directing his commentary to the couple, Kiwi expressed a mixture of frustration and bemusement. “I now know who you are. I don’t know why you picked our parking lot, but I do have a collection of footage. Grounded in reality, this is not a scene from a television drama; it’s serious. If you check into the hotel 100 yards away and keep it off my property, that’ll be the end of it. I won’t look for you, and I won’t pursue you. But if you do return to our car park, I’ll release the footage and it’s game over. Good luck.”

While Kiwi’s remarks might convey a touch of tongue-in-cheek humor, his message resonates with employees and patrons alike: this golf course simply will not tolerate inappropriate behavior in its parking lot.
