Great short course

Only 2-3 drivable holes, great short course and fairly forgivable, great views near hole 7-9 too, definitely recommend walking not really much point in taking a cart here.

Good for short game work

This is a good course to brush up your short game. Each nine has 3 par 4s and 6 par 3s. It's a beautiful location, nestled against the eastern edge of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Flat course, easy walk. Pace of play is affected by all the par 3s. Amenity rating is due to Covid-19 constraints.

My time

Got sent out with three others and they played at or better than my skill level.., I am 70, so I just try to manage my play that are in my physical limitation( bad back).

My group were very friendly and fun to play with them. The course is great and it was my third time playing here. What I really enjoy is that this course is short for an 18 hole course but it is very walkable. The course is narrow at times and has its share of obstacles which makes challenging. I will be playing here again.

Great condition!

Mild fall weather, sunny not hot. Course in excellent shape. Greens were perfect. I didn’t hit any balls into the bunker, but visually, the sand looked good. Love this short course; great place to practice the short game. I only used my driver on two holes.

Pace of play

If you are playing here on the weekend, be prepared for a long day. Make sure to bring a comfy seat and some refreshments for lines you will inevitably be waiting in at each tee box.

Would not recommend.

Interesting layout, need some tlc

Played on a Friday at noon. Greens were in need of recovery. Since Covid-19 all the courses are getting allot of play so it is understandable that there is no rest for the super on maintaining the course. Hopefully winter will bring some rain and let them heal. Overall, fun round but will not be on regular rotation..

Management was arrogant.

Management enforced rules selectively, and they were very arrogant towards a senior citizen. Went back and played after not playing there for years at this course where my son first learned how to play, and the course seemed to have improved in many ways, but the management was a big disappointment as I had never been treated this way at this course before. I felt like someone paid them to harass me, and this would never have happened when Mr. Montalban was the manager.

Fun course, a little rough

A fun “executive 18-hole” with a few quirks. The fairways can be a little rough and the overhead power lines infuriating, but this track can be a lifesaver when looking for tee times late in the week. Very walkable, with a good amount of shade for those hot South Bay days.
