Every hole is unique

It’s a bit of a drive to get to Gilroy, but eagle ridge is well worth it. The layout of the course is thrilling and has hardly been spoiled by real estate development. The bunkers were going to seed for a while but they are being rebuilt and that will make the course an A+ in my book.

Still Under Construction

I wish they would tell you when they have shortened holes before you pay for the round. This course has been working on their traps for several years. They are making progress, but are only on #11. Disappointed that this work is not done.

Always great time here

Let me start off with a minor suggestion, when they are doing construction on a fairway the front office should let you know when you check in.

My friends and I love this course. We have played it about Five times since we started playing golf last year. When we first played here we scored about 110.... now we are mid to low 90’s. And have improved our game by only hitting other fairways about 5% of the time compared to 50% since we first started..

We plan on playing this course at least once every 5-6 weeks as we like to hit other courses around the Bay Area.

Eagle ridge

First timer on the course . Would have been 5 stars across the board but.. one of the holes was under repair so they shortened it to the fairway and made it in to a par 3. Using the fairway as the green...

went out as a single and didn’t know the course so wasn’t familiar with the hazards ..

looking forward to my next visit!! Hopefully All repairs will be done !

Challenging Layout

Looks like Eagle Ridge is working on revitalizing the course. I would bring my buddies into play when we see improvements. There are tight landing areas and forces you to think through the course. Glad it’s in the surrounding San Jose Area.

No Better Way to Spend the Day

Good shape course for no rain, some bunkers under repair and some trees need to be trimmed out of the fairways. The generous fairways are all green with very few bald spots. The breeze did affect our ball flight but not bad. There were a couple of twosomes that were in a great hurry so we let them play through.

Great course layout

I really enjoyed this course. The course design is a good challenge. The had the tips moved up to the blues so I look forward to playing there again from the true tips. The greens were aerated but the still rolled really well. I’ll definitely play here multiple times going forward.

Impressed With the Work!

Played on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, 75, no wind and not too crowded. Teed off at 1:30 (15 mins early) with a gentleman and his wife, as well as their puppy...cool by me! They played through 7, then the rest of the afternoon it was me and my "hits from the 70's). Back to the course, they've put in a ton of work and it's starting to pay off. Greens were absolutely perfect (bummer they have to aerate starting tomorrow, but makes sense), fairways were a solid 8/10, tee boxes ok, bunkers on front 9 looked good, they start work on the back 9 soon. All In all, awesome day...I'll be back soon!

Nice course

Nice course. The fairways were a little rough but that’s to be expected this time of year. Beautiful sand traps on the front 9, the back 9 were terrible but they did mention they are in the process of redoing the back now. We will definitely go again if ever in the area.
