Golfer Reviews
$9 fees at checkin !!
Course is in good shape but the $9 fee that they are charging you at checkin is a turnoff. I will not be coming back to play because of that alone
We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share your favorite part of your experience and what we can do to earn that last star! Thanks for golfing at Eagle Ridge Golf Club!
Not worth the money
The course is in poor shape and is not worth the money. They are charging an extra $9 for some reason. I will not play here again. There are other nice courses near that charge far less.

Weeds Weeds Weeds
If you like weeds you will love this course. Weeds in the sand traps, weeds in the fairways and they even have weeds on the tee boxes. So disappointed. This used to be a great course but the conditions are horrible. Pluss they charge you a $9.00 booking fee.

Course improvements
Eagle ridge is a Great Track. Country setting, interesting looks and unique golf holes. But the course is getting away from the maintenance staff because of a wall to Wall green irrigation system. Reccomended that eagle ridge shrink their irrigation footprint and switch to a Desert, naturalist style Single line irrigation irrigation system. Eagle ridge will save water and encourage their maintenance staff to prioritize fairways and greens and NOT the peripherals of the property.
Hello, rodcarrillo. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club.

Enjoyed it
Got a reservation on GolfNow. Did not mind paying extra $9 at check in for the resource recovery fee. The course was in an excellent shape. I enjoy playing here because I get to use all my clubs. Shot accuracy rewards you. I love 8th and 9th. They are tucked into the wooded hills with a stream still running. I saw a herd of deers grazing in the hill. The air feels absolutely clean and refreshing.
u000004322456, thanks for the amazing review and for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon!
The scenery was beautiful, but the course itself was in mediocre shape

Great Round!
Has an 11:30 tee time, got there early and was able to go out by myself. Played the first 9 holes in 1.5 hrs. Back nine is tough but well worth it. I’ll be coming back for sure.

Very tough back 9
Beautiful but very difficult course.
FRONT NINE: was interesting, a lot of challengers. Course and greens were in good shape. The rough was tough, as the grass, for the most part, was kept at around 5 inches. For us, that meant a lot of time looking for the ball if it went off the fairway.
BACK NINE: was very difficult. Almost no flat lies, always on a slope....and the slope could be in any direction to the hole. A lot of steep slopes. Played with a young scratch golfer. He was not feeling well, so quit at the turn. In parting he said he didn't think he was missing much because the back nine is so difficult...even for him.
In conclusion, this course is good for 15 or under handicappers. Otherwise it can be very frustrating.
Hello, u160159180. Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Eagle Ridge Golf Club. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
wontc2001, thank you for the awesome rating! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another great experience, and thanks for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club.
Course good, extra fee BAD
The course and pace of play were excellent. The extra fee of $9 you had to pay for fertilizer was a bummer. It is not about the money (I understand prices have risen) but adds an unnecessary unexpected surprise to one's visit. Why not make it simple and raise the golf rate so one knows that once you have paid you have paid and no need to pay again...??? I asked and there is no extra fee for using electricity and water even if that is more expensive as well, as of yet anyway....
Hello, enejder. Thank you for visiting us at Eagle Ridge Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Hi, u456334211. We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share with us your favorite part of your experience. Thanks for golfing at Eagle Ridge Golf Club!
Tough Tough course
The front nine was challenging, but the back nine was almost impossible. Narrow fairways, extremely sloped hills that you had to play as a sidehill, bunkers with long grass on the uphill outside. A lot of water ways..
Greens are in good shape. Bunkers had good quality sand.
A true challenge for the best of golfers. Do not recommend for average golfers.
Thanks so much for the great review, u160159180. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club.
Eagle Ridge--
PLEASE NOTE THAT THEY HAVE AN EXTRA FEE OF $9.00 (recovery fee) PER PLAYER that you pay upon checkin--RIDICULOUS.
Hello, btsudama9. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club.
Springtime Golf is back!
A perfect day to be on the course anywhere in the Bay Area, but I especially enjoyed being close to home. The course is recovering well as we've had an unprecedented amount of rain. The maintenance staff is doing a great job dealing with all the issues. They've got the greens rolling sweet!
Thank you for your review, kendo19. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Eagle Ridge Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Additional charge will be asked
$9/rider will be charged without notification even if you prepaid everything.
Course condition is bad. No worth playing here paying more than $60.
Thanks
Hello, hiperax. Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience.
We're sorry to hear you were less than satisfied during your round. We pride ourselves on our providing great service and the high-quality standards we maintain.
We would like to make things right. Please reach out to our management team at the pro shop.
We hope to hear from you soon.
This is not right!
Booked a fouirsome on Golfnow and paid on-line.
Got to the course and they wanted an extra $9 per player for some ridiculous fee they said they are charging since their fertilizer cost went up 300%.
I told them my PG&E bill doubled so they should give me a credit on the green fees.
This fee is on their website but I did not use their website to book so to charge an additional fee once you get to the course is bad business.
Thanks so much for the great review, skiphouston. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Eagle Ridge Golf Club.
