About
Northern California's San Juan Oaks Golf Club is located halfway between the Silicon Valley and Monterey Peninsula off Highway 101 near the historic town of San Juan Bautista in Hollister. Opened in 1996, the 18-hole golf course is Fred Couples' first signature design in California and features five sets of tees for varying skill levels. It's also home to "Club Boom Boom," a popular junior teaching program. On top of the golf course, San Juan Oaks is known especially for its elaborate facilities including banquet rooms and patios for group outings, as well as driving range and practice greens.

Beautiful scenery
In addition to being a nice course, the weather that day and the surrounding scenery were beautiful.
Still a hidden Gem for the area
I'll start off with saying this has been my favorite track over the years. However it's been 2-3 years since playing last. Fairways were great, greens were probably the best I've ever seen out there. And the bunkers that have been worked on are pristine. The bunkers still in need of work also looked pretty good. Pace of play is a little slow because it s a tough (but fair) and long course. Snack bar at the turn was open and very friendly. Staff inside were exceptional, including the gentlemen arranging the carts and range balls. I would suggest a starter be more positioned near the 1st tee to better coordinate tee times, but that's a small knock on an amazing day of golf.

great course bad etiquette
Sadly, whilst this tarck is superb and a real good test of your game.... it suffers from people cutting in and ruining the pace of play. Course marshalls needed.

Nice course
It’s probably been over 10 years since I last played here. Course was in overall good shape with a couple of patchy areas which can be expected for this time of year. Weather turned out great and I liked the course layout.

Underrated
San Juan Oaks would be getting more street cred and golfing cred if it wasn't away from the hussle bussle of San Jose proper. Great trac and great views and value
Hello, Mark4857557. Thank you for visiting us at San Juan Oaks Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Great course but...
Greens were pretty bumpy today. Perhaps a hangover from a punch that occurred 1-2 months earlier? Bunkers are hard pan - very little loose sand. Several tee boxes were pretty chewed up.

Great time
Super course. As a 10 handicap I was humbled by the length and difficulty. Even long drives in the middle of Fairways were sidehill, uphill, or downhill lies. This is not a criticism. Just challenging. Green said were a bit bumpy but looked as if they had been punched recently. Overall great time.
Thank you for the review, Dberggren! We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed your round. We hope you'll be back again soon. Thank you for playing San Juan Oaks Golf Club!
Quick fun
Booked a tee off tee time for 10:40 because it rained early of that day nobody was out in front of us ended up playing in 3 hours Greens were great fairways were great The rain helped the sand traps all in all love the course was beautiful with the fresh rain and clouds highly suggest people play this course
Your feedback is important to us, sandersrun. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing San Juan Oaks Golf Club.
Reasonable course with poor time management
Course is a good outing but there is no time management. Single players are allowed to play single even if another single is waiting. Just because this gentleman rejected my plea to pair up to allow foursome behind us to be able to finish before dark, I ended up offering the foursome to play with me to save time and we ended up repeating back 9 . There was no marshal to manage .
Hello, malhi. Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff. Thanks for visiting San Juan Oaks Golf Club!

i like the course
great course, pace was good. started at 1 and finished at 5. wife likes the advantage for womens tee boxes. fairways are in good shape. this time the greens were bumpy and a little slow. I will go back again
Hello, dantearl. We are beyond happy to hear that you and your wife enjoyed a great day at our course. Positive experiences make lifelong golfers. We look forward to many good times ahead with you both. Thank you for playing San Juan Oaks Golf Club!
Unbeatable Value
Don’t let the remote location or small town feel fool you, this course is every bit as good as those which cost two or three times as much to play. The setting is peaceful and each hole has its own unique design. The front nine is a nice warmup for the much more difficult back nine. Greens and fairways are always meticulously maintained, with consistent speed throughout all 18-holes. I’ve been playing here for years and I have always enjoyed it; even when I was a beginner and shot well into the 100’s. Haha
