Definitely the last time

I last played Eagle Ridge in 2017 and vowed never to play there again. The bunkers were a mess and many parts of the course wasn't doing well. After watching a YouTuber play there this year I decided to give it a try and while they've fixed the bunkers the rest of the course was in pretty rough shape. Lots of burnt or dead grass and the greens while they rolled well were littered with unrepaired divots. With the water issues in CA and how hot Gilroy gets you almost can't blame the greenskeeper but this will definitely be my last trip to EG

New Eagle Ridge

With all the sand traps rebuilt and a new superintendent the course has taken on a new look with all the challenges that require all your clubs.

While Eagle Ridge is still a course with a challenge it is now fair and rewarding.

As a member I play often and it has improved my game. Grip and rip holes as well as target shots.

Golf shop lady

Older lady in the golf shop was rude and not very helpful. The tee boxes were beat up and had tall weeds that needed to be pulled in order to not get your club snagged. I will not play there again unless it was free.

You need to fix some of tee areas as some were not level!! Some pin placements were too close to the edges, but all in all pretty good positions.

A nice find

Lately it’s been hard to find a public course in good condition in the South Bay. Though a bit of a drive, this course is awesome. Scenic, reasonably challenging, walkable, true greens and well paced. The only disappointment was absence of a good sit down 19th hole!

Great day

3 of us had played this ourselves about 8 times before, we met a player and from India at Deep Cliff and we invited him to play this course and he loved it. Everything was great, from the clubhouse, the tees, fairways and greens.

I had one of my best rounds, hit 14 out of the 18 fairways, missed a few par chances because I tapped the ball instead of following through.

We will definitely play here again, one of the nicest courses in the Bay Area.
