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.

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.

great beginners course

Great for beginners and short 9 hole.

Narrow course to train you to hit it straight.

Pretty challenging for beginners.

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!

Cute little nine hole course

It’s definitely not an easy course. Narrow fairways. Greens are well maintained and it’s on the slower side. Friendly staff and I would definitely come back!

Blackberry is fun for advanced beginners!

Nice challenging par 9 for advanced beginners! A few 200+ yards narrow holes. All other holes are mainly over 100 yards. People that play at Blackberry are nice and not intimidating. You do hear a lot of "four!" while playing!

Fun short course for the money

This is a short course that is tight but fun. The overall quality is not great but the cost is low. We had a lot of fun. Layout is a good balance of easy with some challenge.

Nice Course, Can't Be Mad

Narrow 9-hole, gorgeous setting. The staff inside needs to upgrade to a Macbook, system processor seems slow.

You can use a driver on hole 2 and 4 which is nice from a normal short course. You can also use your hybrid or 3/4 wood on holes 6 and 9, although the fairways are very narrow.

Tight little par 3 course with 2 short par 4's (par 29). Very small greens that were in great shape. Backup when we tee'd off the guy at the desk said go start on 5 and come around was perfect. Paid 1/2 price using Golfnow. Great little course for after work was done in 90 minutes.

Nice Little Course

This course is well maintained, with nice fairways, greens, and teeboxes. It's a relatively simple course, as being so short there's only so many "features" you can have. Every hole is pretty much straightforward. Only thing I didn't like was that the greens are the size of postage stamps so approach shots were tough. But that's more personal preference and not a condemnation of the course itself. The scenery is great as it's completely surrounded by nice, tall trees so you get a very nature-y feeling a little bit away from the city atmosphere. Overall, it's a nice, relaxing course and pretty well taken care of.

As another player put it “ Blackberry Farm is really maintained well and it’s a great value for the price.”

I would concur. Only negative I can think of would be the tee box on #3 seems to often be under repair (with a plastic temporary tee on carpet). A good course for an hour and forty minutes for 9 holes.
