Good course, good value, need better maintence
In the front 9, followed groups of tournament. They were one hour behind. Had to wait every hole. All good pace in back 9.
Course conditions now a bit spotty.
First Time Visit
this course was recently listed as one of the 20 toughest in NorCA...opportunity presented and I took it, riding solo yesterday....nice staff, decent conditions and maintenance, which was a little disappointing...nice track especially 13-17 were not for the faint of heart...go visit...you'll enjoy I'm sure...
In general
Course was in great shape. Pace of play was spot on. Starter was on time.
Pin placements were challenging. Difficult to read.
Overall, had a good time. Restaurant was not open. Would of enjoyed a meal after round.
Course deteriorated a lot
This used to one of my favorite course due to it’s semi-private,
However, I was surprised to see how the course condition is now even worse than some public ones.
Even I paid $40 thru Hot deal from GN, don’t feel it’s worth if the experience.
What a DUMP
What an absolute joke, no wonder this course is the laughingstock of the south bay golf community. Course is in absolute shambles, clubhouse is a dump, food/bev is atrocious. It’s obvious that management has no clue what they’re doing, this place is run like a mom & pop liquor store. Don’t look at the pictures and think you’re getting that; instead, expect weeds/wildflowers/clover everywhere, weed THATCHES growing on the tee boxes and fringes, dirt patches everywhere, and never being able to play your ball without first moving it to an acceptable lie. This place isn’t worth $30, let alone the price they’re charging which is comparable Cinnabar/Coyote/SJO. Don’t give these people your money, you will leave disappointed no matter what.
Not worth the money
Restaurant closed, on a Friday. Course was in ok shape, should be better considering it’s spring time. Greens have weeds growing on them. For over $100 weekend rate, it’s just not worth it. I answered that I wouldn’t recommend, but I would if it was less expensive to play for what you get.
Needs Work
Have been playing this course for many years. It went through a bad period when the sand traps were terrible so I stayed away. The traps got fixed so I came back. Then many fairways were dried out and bare. The clubhouse used to be a nice spot to grab a lunch and beer after the round. No more. No stools at the bar. Food is terrible. The bathroom after the 4th hole is a pig stye. On many tee boxes it was hard to get a peg in the cement like ground. The 4th tee box had what appeared to be a fine gravely material spread throughout. There is no acceptable chipping practice area, just weeds. For what they're charging I won't be back until it improves.
Nice Course but beat up.
It's a fun track. Super challenging layout. Unfortunately it's all beat up. Weeds growing out of the greens, bare sand patches in the fairway. Golf is hard enough without that.
Didn't Play
I arrived at the clubhouse to check in and the person claimed I didn't have a tee time... I did not bring my laptop with the reservation number (Golfnow 401086708) (course 600841856) but told her I made it through Golfnow. She claimed there were no tee time with my name so I left... I DID NOT PLAY!!! I would like to be reimbursed the charge from Golfnow
Great variety and challenging
The course has a great variety of holes. Widening its way through some nice homes. Each hole is quite different from the last. The course includes more than the usual elevational changes and sand traps. Multiple fairways require you to lay up to avoid hazards or to find a space to hit through openings in the trees. Several doglegs and occasional trees in the fairway. This course is probably not for the average golfer. Although some of the views make higher scores worth it.
I would highly recommend this course if you enjoy being challenged.
Saturated and bald
Very wet, lots of bare spots on the fairways. Weeds and other foreign vegetation everywhere. Not what it used to be.
