Greens are good and fun to play.

Great course to get some practice. Easy to walk and does have some challenge. Play early and you can play 18 in 3 1/2 hours.

Beautiful course located in the "hills" of Cupertino.

A very nice course to get out and play and get 18 holes in in less than four hours (depending on your t-time) Very friendly staff and the course is well kept.

Really fun executive course.

I had limited time and this course was perfect for that. Lots of fun and some challenge. I played behind two others and walked a leisurely pace and still finished 18 hole in an hour and 45 minutes. Great place to work on the short game both on course and with the practice facility.

A scenic, challenging and serene course, particularly for beginners and seniors. It is reasonably well kept. I'm a senior and try to play it once a week.

I cannot recommend this course. Slow, unmonitored play. Staff dismissed complaints by stating "you only payed $17 to play".

Do not waste your time and money unless you have plenty of both. I played here for the first and last time on 2/24 with tee off at 3:07. After 1.5 hours I played just 5 holes due to unmonitored play including groups of parents and children taking 4 and 5 tee shots, looking for balls, and taking multiple shots again and again. I left the course after 5 holes only to complain to rude staff.

Good Scenery

Deep Cliff is great for the beginner golfer. It is a short 18 hole course with pretty scenery. Right now the course is not in the best of condition but it is very playable. Great for honing your short game.

Nice course, good location, but needs cleaning

This is probably one of a few golf courses in the SF Bay area, where you can lose half a dozen balls on the fairway. Because the fairways are half covered with leaves! Par 4s are really small. I am a casual player and I was able to drive to the green several times. Makes it too easy. If I'm feeling low and need a morale boost, I'll tee up here!

But you do get to see a couple of families of deer while you play!

Beautiful relaxing course.

Beautiful little course tucked in a small valley. Short but fun and entertaining. Good practice for your short game. It takes about 3 hours to play as long as play moves. If your a long hitter and like to hit driver off the tee then the course isn't for you. One driving hole on the course and you can drive the green.
An excellent course for couples or beginners that don't want to spend 5 hours on the course. Bring your camera, beautiful surroundings with lots of wildlife.

Nice Executive, Muni Prices

This is a good little executive course with a few nice water holes. It freezes over a lot and that can lead to a really muddy day, but when the weather is cooperative it is quite nice. Greens are decently kept, muni level putting surface. The fairways on the par 4 holes are not great; there isn't much difference hitting from the middle of the fairway or from the rough under a tree most of the time. Plays fast if no one is in front of you. I finished the course with my friend in 3.5 hours, but played with a 3some and people in front of us slowed it down by almost an hour.

The staff is nice and the guy who cooks is good at what he does. The driving range is basically just a hitting net.

This is the most wonderful executive course!

Deep Cliff Golf Course is wonderful! The staff is extremely nice and welcoming. This executive course (60 par) is the best because it is well established in a stunning area of Cupertino. There are a fair variety of holes nestled among creeks, ponds, and a deep cliff. It's a lush setting. Deer, California brown rabbits, and a great variety of birds enjoy the course as well! There are some very challenging holes even though there are only about six 4 pars. It's just an enjoyable place to play 9 or 18 holes! The Premier Club and senior rates offer a good deal. (Did I mention those great fries that come from a tiny kitchen with a friendly staff?)

Mediocre conditions and slowish play. Good for beginners.

Played this course in the middle of summer. The greens were soggy while the fairways were firm. The ball literally rolled for days. That coupled with the fact that the course is very tight and short makes hitting driver nearly impossible. Deep cliff is good if you want to practice your iron play, but the pace was slow mid day and the greens were too fuzzy and soggy to focus on the short game.

Tees were in need of improvment. Greens were pretty good. Fairways were a tree lined and had a mix of different grasses.

This course is a great place for beginning golfers or if you need to work on iron play and short game.

Short, easy walking 18

This course is a great value especially for seniors. Short 18 yet you use all the clubs in your bag at least once. Beautiful surroundings. Must hit fairways and greens to play well. I've lost more balls here than on championship courses!

Fun Course, Slow Day

I had a great time at this course, however, the course of play was super slow when we played.

According to the field marshall the people who were 2 groups ahead of us were very slow.

good short game practice, some narrow fairways, tight shots

It's always fun to play this course. Recently the grounds crew are working to improve specific areas. Some grasses have been sprayed/killed so there are some rough patches. The greens are in pretty good shape however.

Perfect for the not so serious golfer!

This is a very pretty course and mostly non intimidating for those relatively new to golf. It's easy to get around in less than 4 hours. Love being able to easily walk the course. People are very nice. Be prepared to lose a few balls though!
