Good but windy

I've played here many times. The course is great and in excellent condition every time. However, due to its location, it can get really windy here.
It's a course that requires thinking instead of just bombing the driver down every hole.

tournament course

It was a hot day, so the lag in play on the course wasn't a great thing. We also had a three some behind us that was impatient and kept hitting up on us while we were waiting for the group in front of us. Had this not been my first time here their balls would have been hit onto the highway
the clubhouse staff was great and very friendly. I think putting 1 Marshall out on the course woul be a good thing.
I don't understand why the GPS has the drink cart button on it and nobody ever showed up.

South Silicon Valley Treat

Coyote Creek has evolved into a nice operation and continues to improve yearly. As a long-term SV resident, I recalled the original Riverside track (which is now the Valley Course) and before the expansion with the Tournament Course. The facility, staffing and playing conditions are impressive and moderately priced. Even with the local area drought, Coyote is responsibly managing their water usage and the playing conditions were ideal given the middle of the summer. Recommend you enjoy yourself soon.

Wind causes challenges

What a beautiful course. However, the length of the Par 4's combined with the wind provided a tremendous challenge for me. I loved the course and will defiantly take the trip to play it again. Probably the favorite course I have played in a long time. Fairways were pristine. The greens were challenging and I gave them too much credit for breaks. Look forward to the next visit!!

Golf heaven!

Beautiful course layout, and the greens were in excellent condition!!! I give two thumbs up for the fast and well put pin positions. If the bunkers were raked occasionally after watering them, this course is a prime Bay Area course. Staffs from the pro shop to cart attendees were very courteous and friendly. The snack bar sandwich is a must bite to experience...yum...the best!!! Overall, this course was one of the best yet played this year!

Cool hole layouts, fast greens, windy

Played both courses this week, the wind is a big factor but it just makes it more interesting. Grass driving range was a big plus as well. With Golfnow discount it's a great value for the money. Nicklaus course for ~$40 midweek w/ cart is solid

Tough Course 4 first timer. Want another attempt @ it!

Must drive outta trouble and avoid the long brusb
Had 3 lost balls on a bad driving day. Wetter sand
Greens relatively fast and you'll 3-putt easily if you don't pay close attention
Pin positions from heck all day; tight to one side, behind traps, corners of greens.
Lush green fairways with lots of gulleys and barrancas within hitting distance.
Pretty green outside the fairway made for some nice views.
Course knowledge (none here; have play the "Valley course - much easier!) is definately an advantage. . . played w/ member.
I'd rate it an 8 for both conditions and challenge for any advanced player.

Fair challenge, good pace..would recommend

Found the course to be well manicured and in very good condition. Course is fair but challenging. Staff friendly from check in to the ranger that helped drive my friend back to the parking lot because he had to leave early. Did enjoy this course quite a bit.

RB 06/28/2014 Review

Overall the course was in good shape and it played tougher than I expected, especially with the persistent fairly strong wind from the northwest. I also had some difficulty on the greens althouh they were smooth and rolled true, they would not hold a shot. The only real negative was the sand traps had little if any sand so if you were in them as I was several times it was somewhat unfair.

Coyote Creek Tournament 18

This was our first time playing the tournament side after playing the valley side at least five or six times. The tournament 18 is a little more challenging and has a bit more character. There is no escaping the noise and views of the freeway that the course runs alongside but the scenery was otherwise very nice. The fairways were in pretty good shape but it is still easy to lose a ball here if you are slightly off line.

Great Time

I played this course again this past Sunday (late evening) with my almost 8 year old son who is an NCGA Youth on Course member. We had a great time.
The course was in very good condition, the pace of play was great and the staff was very accommodating towards my son.
Certainly recommend the course.
