Not Good!

Course was in terrible shape. Driving range was limited to a narrow slot, fairways had lots of dandelions and was hard to find your ball. Roughs were overgrown and was real easy to lose your ball. Many of the other patrons kept trying to play around us. We would get to a hole and someone would try to jump ahead of our foursome. None of them spoke english so they didnt understand us when telling them the course was backed up.

Terrible place for the price. The pro shop and resturant was closed. Had to use port-o-potties in the parking lot. NO mention of that when the round was booked. The greens had been punched and no mention of that when booking.

The only thing good about this course was the fact that it was a clear sunny day...

I do not recommend this course!

Bay View aka Summitpointe

Use to play this course frequently back when it was Summitpointe, Bay View merge resulted in broken promises, all money went into clubhouse and dining and not much different with course at all. Hospitality is still great but we were 45 min behind pace all day. Understanding why it's cart path only due to hills and undulations but cart path only makes this place unattractive. Bummed but guess some enjoy it. I leave it for others.

weather issue!

On February 14th at 12:30 PM, with three friends played a round at Bayview Golf Course in Milpitas, California.

There was a forecast that it would rain, but when we started, there was only wind blowing. The cart could not enter the fairway, possibly due to a problem with the fairway condition of the golf course.

Still, although there was occasional rain until the first 9 holes, we continued to play.

However, as the second half began and after the 10th hole, it started to rain. I decided I couldn't play anymore because the club was slipping and the slope was dangerous, so I stopped around 3pm and went back to the pro shop.

And I asked the staff if they could give me credit since I couldn't play due to the rain, and they bluntly declined and said that our golf course doesn't have anything like that.

When I called the tee-off customer service center where I made a reservation, the answering machine kept answering and I couldn't resolve it by talking to the staff.

I never want to come to this golf course again, and I want to know how I can get credit for teeing off if I don't make it halfway due to weather.

Extremely hilly course very difficult in the best of conditions. Recent heavy rain made the course almost unplayable. I'll try again in the summer.

Bay View - need course knowledge

The checkin process was very good, nice staff. We started on-time and pace of play was great (it was a Thursday) so we finished in 4 hours 15 minutes.

You really need someone in the group that has played this course to maximize your opportunities. Overall, we enjoyed the course and the conditions of the tee boxes, fairways and greens were very good.
