Rating 29.5

Situated along the banks of Stevens Creek, Blackberry Farm Golf Club in Cupertino has a scenic and tranquil setting amongst forests of mature trees. The layout features narrow fairways lined with trees and small, gently undulating greens. Accuracy is essential for scoring well on this golf course, especially since there are come subtle but tricky elevation changes to contend with. Even though it's a nine-hole course with only par 3s and par 4s, it still offers a great opportunity to improve your short game skills. There is a large lake that provides the occasional water hazard and the bunkering is minimal but strategic. The holes have interesting designs that will force even advanced golfers to carefully strategize. Blackberry Farm provides an excellent round of practice for an affordable price.

Narrow fairways make for challenging holes

This course is great for testing iron play. Fairways are pretty narrow and tree lined and force you to be pretty straight or end up in the trees. Challenging 9 holes with a couple of drivable par-4 but mostly par-3s. Pace of play is a bit challenging with a number of beginners. The staff doesn't enforce general golf etiquette. I have been stuck behind groups of 5 people sharing golf bags, slowing the pace down. Great value for money so can't complain too much.

Beginner

Golfing less than a year. Went here because I heard it was good for beginning golfers. Man in the shop polite. Weather wasn't the best so just a few golfers there.

Fairways were narrow, but i managed to stay on most of them

Some tough greens for me to approach. Still working on that. I did get my very first Par ever here, no 5, par 3. It was awesome. I had a great time.. will be back

First Par ever

Upon arrival was greeted by the polite gentleman working the shop.

I have only been golfing for less than a year, and currently taking lessons. I am sticking to the 9 hole courses until ready for the big ones. There were only a few people on the course. For me and my ability, everything about the course was perfect.

I made my first par ever on # 5. Tee shot landed in an empty pond on dirt. Figured why not try it. Pitched out of it, landed on green and stopped 3 feet from cup. First put..IN!!.. dohhh.

Great course, will be back

Challenging, good value

For less than $20, Blackberry is super nice. Greens were especially nice this weekend, they played very well. Very narrow fairways and small greens makes the course challenging, but it's a great place to home in on your accuracy.

Good beginner course

Most people playing are beginners. Lots of trees with narrow fairways make for challenging conditions. Pace of play is inconsistent depending on who is in front of you. No water hazards and minimal sand traps. Good place to learn to hit straight.

Challenging Par-3 course

It's a pretty basic par-3 course with tight fairways and small greens. No water features and few sand traps. Hitting straight is paramount. Good fun course for beginners looking to push themselves.

Honest Review

This 9 hole value accuracy. If you are not accurate you can easily lose your ball or have to shoot off of another fairway. Greens are really small so if you miss you will miss the green completely.

Fun

Played with my wife. Fun track.we walked the course in just over an hour. Fairways and greens are in great shape. Greens are receptive, medium pace and roll nicely.

Jeff at the pro shop was friendly. We ate at the Blue Pheasant after our round which is right next door to the pro shop. Super friendly staff and great food and drinks.

We'll be coming back for more golf and food in the near future.

Cheers!!

Great place to practice your game

With narrow fairways and some elevation changes, this is a fun little course. The greens were in excellent shape and the Pro Shop staff was extremely accommodating and nice. I will definitely golf Blackberry Farm again soon!
