Nice course

The course is nice but is in desperate need of new sand in the bunkers! Every bunker I was in only had about a quarter inch of sand in it so it was very difficult to hit a decent bunker shot.

It was loud, incredibly windy, and terrible sand. The greens were nice but overall I've had a better time at other places that cost less.

Grass condition excellent!

It definitely wasn't very scenic, but the course conditions made up for it. Long challenging holes mixed up with shorter ones that had plenty of sand and water around to make it just as hard. If you have the 80 bux to drop on a round of golf, i strongly suggest playing the tournament course. Haven't played Valley yet, the people i played with said it was slightly easier, will be finding out next time i head out there!

Winter Get Away

First game of the season. The weather was perfect and the course was in great shape and the greens were pretty fast. Overall had a great time at this course although we got stuck behind a foursome that would not let us play through., we were only two players.

Valley course ok

Valley course at Coyote Creek is not as difficult or interesting as the Tournament course. Conditions are good, but again, not as great as Tournament (which is fantastic). This course can be walked while the Tournament Course does not allow walkers. Pace of play was a bit of a problem on the back nine. Overall, I would rather play the Tournament Course since the prices are basically the same.

Tournament Course excellent

Outstanding conditions -- greens are in particularly great shape. Pace of play was fine as not too many people were out there. Tricky course if you don't have local knowledge/experience, but not unfair.

No Push Over

This is a great course that just keeps coming at you. Many holes require very accurate tee shots. Greens were in great shape. Make a note that many putts do not require as much break as you might think. Unless you are striping it perfectly, be prepared to take an extra club on many shots. Down notes would be noise from the freeway on some holes and the many environmental areas on the front 9. You've got to avoid them because you cannot go after your ball if you hit in them.

Very nice course in SJ

Booked round with Golfnow for $50, which was a great value for the weekday. Course conditions were excellent, except the bunkers. Greens were fast and tricky, but great condition. Fairways and tee boxes were nice, too. The only issue I had was the bunkers. There really isn't much sand in there. Kind of hitting out of mud with some top dressing of sand. I did hear Coyote Creek will undergo a renovation. I'm sure the bunkers will be much better afterwards. Overall, I gave it 4 stars. Highly recommend!

Coyote's Better Half

Greens were in great condition, rolled true. Sand traps on the other hand were very thin. Hit very hard rock like surface under just a film of sand. The holes on the east side of Hwy 101 had alot of charector. Distinguishing this course from the Valley Course.

Spectacular over all. Greens rolled perfectly. The starters are at times disorganized and you have to really work to pair up with other singles or non foursomes.

Great course for the money

I booked this course last minute for a round between a few friends and I. We had previously played on the valley course so this proved to have a few more challenges to it. However, the pace of play was quite good and we enjoyed the quality of the course. The club has done a good job maintaining it and keeping it in better than playable shape.
