Rancho

Overall a good course but the greens need some work. They’re to hard for pitch and stick. And hard to read.

Play here

Great place to work on your short game. Very well Maintained. Fun design for a 9 hole par 3 muni. Perfect for what it is. Much better than other similar courses in the same type (public par 3 practice rounds of 9 holes).

Groundskeeper Problems

On Dec. 4th. I played Rancho Del Pueblo. I have been having a problem with one of the groundskeepers. Initially he wanted to play golf. That was okay. Later he wanted to hang out with me. Not okay. He started stalking and harassing me on the course. On the 6th. hole near the groundskeepers shed, he yelled out "I hate that guy" five times. I told management about this and other problems with this individual. They did nothing. I have no problems with the other groundskeepers. For my safety and well being, I will not play here.

Groundskeeper Problem

I am having problems with one of the groundskeepers. This individual wanted to play golf and I agreed. Later he wanted to hang out, but I did not. He started harassing me and stocking me on the golf course. On December 4th. he yelled out "I hate that guy" five times. I was chipping on the 6th. hole. The groundskeepers shed was right next to hole #6 where he was at. There was no one around me the time. I complained to management. They did nothing. I have a good relationship with the other groundskeepers. For my safety and wellbeing, I will no longer play here.

No goose poop

I think the course is in its best condition in years! Fairways are lush, greens were true, and hardly any goose poop!

Highly recommended for iron practice. $5 is a great deal! Golf Now service fee makes it just a deal : (

great course to practice your iron and short game

nice course to play and practice your iron shot, there's only 1 hole that is par 4 and the rest are par 3's.

fairways are playable and putting green are in great condition. They have a very good practice area for chipping and putting and convenience of having a driving range to hit your drivers.

Rancho del Pueblo, el Casa del Ganso

While geese and neighborhood cats are the only animals on this ranch, Rancho del Pueblo (or “Ranch of the Town”) does live up to its name as a local town golf course where kids, seniors, and everyone in-between can come to enjoy a leisurely round of golf. Mostly geared towards beginners, don’t expect the pace of play to be particularly speedy, or tee times to be strictly enforced. Also, know that Rancho del Pueblo is a First Tee course (a great youth program using golf to teach life skills and build character), so some holes may get reserved. The day that we went, for example, holes 1, 2, and 9 were reserved for First Tee, so they had us play 3-8 twice for a total of 12 holes (which didn’t bother us, but wasn’t indicated in advance on GolfNow). In terms of the condition of the course, overall I found the fairways, bunkers, rough, and greens to be very well maintained considering the price range. I also very much appreciated that, while there were geese everywhere, not a single dropping could be found on any of the greens. You know you’re not going to have a good round when your putts look more like pinball in an obstacle course of goose droppings...

Altogether I would recommend this course to beginners who don’t want the pace-of-play stress normally faced on the bigger or more expensive courses, or anyone who wants to focus on their short game, and see some geese along the way.

Fun 9 hole course

Short, but fun course.

1 hole is driver friendly.

Course in great condition.

Greens well kept.

Very kid friendly since it's a First Tee facility.

This is my go to course to play with my kid.

The pace of play is around 2hrs +/- 15 min with kid on the weekend.

Good Course, Fairways,Greens!

Played this course for the first time. I was very impressed the quality of it. It is kind of tucked away in the middle of San Jose, but very accessible. The weather was nice, along with the fairways, and greens. I wish the course was longer, but it is what it is. Definitely nice to get out to play a quick 9, to get your fix. I will recommend to my fellow golfers.
