Eagle Ridge Golf
We had an excellent afternoon playing this challenging but fun course! We really had to think of how to manage each hole!
Nice afternoon
ALTHOUGH THE SLOPE IS HIGH WE ENJOYED PLAYING
nice course but tight
Played there this morning. Nice layout, very friendly staff. Limited food items. Course was generally good but the bunkers need extensive work. I was told that up front which was nice. It's a straight hitters course with no bailouts on any hole with trouble left and right. Greens were very nice and rolled well. It's a very good course for the money.
Best Value for your $...no waiting
Even driving from Santa Cruz thru 152 was well worth it
Course is in a beautiful setting!
I enjoy playing this course, but it is a difficult course for anyone that is a "bogey" golfer like myself. Enjoy the scenery and layout, and don't worry much about your score, especially if your handicap is 18 or more. My only negative comment about my round is that the pace of play was slow with the group I was assigned to play with, even though they were a little lower handicap than myself, took a lot of time "analyzing" their shots!
Eagle Ridge - Gilroy
Very good golf course, well maintained and challenging. There is some moderate elevation change on holes with good quality greens. Tucked away in the hills of Gilroy, this course is worth the cost
Eagle Ridge Golf Course
Eagle Ridge in Gilroy is a course to play. There are many different tee's to choose from and the course is beautiful. The pace of play is very good.
Great hotdogs at the snack shack.
Good course
2 some tee time 720am. Got stuck behind a foursome that were looking for every lost ball. They let us play through on the 5th hole and never saw anyone in front of behind us the rest of the day. Snack bar guy in the morning wouldn't make me a breakfast burrito because he said they were frozen. I said I had 30 mins to tee time how long would they take. He said I told you they are frozen which really annoyed me.
this course has great features.
wonderful layout and good fareway condition.
high level golf course but a lot of fun.
Challenging
Tough course but well maintained.
Almost Perfect
This is my favorite local course because you get to use all different kinds of shots. Tight as well as wide tee shots, both cut and draw holes. Strategy off the tee on shorter par 4 holes is required.
Conditions:
-Greens are always fast and true
-Fairways are 95% good and only mildly effected by a couple years of drought. They are getting better.
-Sand traps are mostly un-raked or prepped on most days. It seems they rotate the raking so they hit them twice a week.
Staff is courteous and the marshall's generally keep play going.
Much better than Coyote Creek and Cinnabar.
The rate I paid was cheaper than Spring Valley! Wow!!
Great Morning at Eagle Ridge
We had the 3rd tee time of the day. The pace of play was outstanding. The early groups were all keeping a good clip. The course was in excellent condition. It has an excellent mix of holes. It's a rock solid value. Friendly staff as well.
Eagle ridge
Overall good course. But some of the holes the tree needs some pruning to improve site lines and giving different shot options especially when the wind picks up.
Nice, tough course
This course was in great shape. Greens were laser fast. Expect unevern lies no matter where you're at. My only gripe is that the bunkers didn't have sand. Mostly dirt. Found myself in 4 bunkers. They really only had sand around the edges.
Fun layout, challenging but playable
Nice course, good value. Interesting holes with a nice range of difficulty. One windmill hole.
Eagle Ridge Golf
The course is better than I remember from playing it twice previously. It's challenging with undulating greens all over the course. Couse management and knowledge are at a premium at Eagle Ridge. I found myself saying at times what was Johnny Miller thinking? It's a great place to get you golf game in shape. I also thought some holes played to longer yardage than indicated. I'll be going back!
ER is a Great, Challenging Course
If you play from the tips, bring your 'A' game and a few extra balls. This is a very difficult (especially when the wind is howling), but fair course. This course is worth the drive from the San Jose area...especially considering the alternatives around here!
A great round of golf!
Had a great time playing Eagle Ridge. Everyone that worked there was super friendly. Water jugs were filled out on the course since it gets so hot. Greens were in excellent shape, along with the fairways and tee boxes. Saw some deer and wild turkeys. Challenging yet fun. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks Eagle Ridge!
Beautiful course
Beautiful course, nice staff, nice layout.
