Gilroy Golf Course

Having played this course for years I could not have been more disappointed. First tee box littered with squirrel holes/mounds, fairways looked more like cow pastures, greens had dead grass or dirt patches. Trying to find positives was near impossible. No marshall to control pace of play. Had I not booked and paid on Golf Now I would have walked off after 3 rd hole and demanded a refund.

Gavilan golf course is a much better value and 6 minutes away.

Overall value of the money was great, HOWEVER...

Be prepared for horribly dry and hard fairways, huge areas of rock-hard dirt patches and areas in the middle of the fairways I would not use even my irons as the hardpack dirt was rock ridden. Hole 17 (par 5 headed up the hill) has the best conditions of the course on the entire course.

Overall play pace is decent, but for sure wishing for the rains to bring some moisture back to the course...

Gilroy GC is a fun day on the links! Very few people can say they have played an 11-hole course.... but that is just what you get here.

Basically, it is a 9-hole course mind set, but you get a surprise when you get to the 8th hole. Tee box is the same for 8 and 17, but one goes left and one goes right (totally different holes). Then 9 starts on one side of the hill and 18 the other. Again, different holes.... but a shared green.

If you like quirky and laid back, give Gilroy GC a try!

This is a fun little course. If you are looking to have a casual day out on the course with friends and family, you may want to consider playing here. Staff is friendly, course is in good shape and the surroundings are peaceful.

Course is challenging. Greens are fast and lots of ups and downs.

This place isn’t anything fancy, but it’s a good place to play the game. There’s always room for you and pals. Weather is great. People are friendly. I really enjoy a fun relaxing round. This is where you get that. Enjoy.

Their is nothing about this course that is positive. There are really no defined tee boxes. The fairways are horrible. The greens are okay at best. The ground is hard as a rock, There are 11 holes (7 shared, 2 non shared). Makes for very slow play. They allow fivesomes which slows it down to a crawl. I quit after 9 holes (2 par 3s I skipped because they were backed up). I called Golfnow and got a partial refund.

Course in good condition. Pace was great, usually over booked and slow play but played early to have a great round. Little foggy in the morning but drives were straight down the fairway for me and my playing partner so easy to find out balls. Great morning for golf

Good course to spend the day. the 17th and 18th holes IMHO are the best playing holes. The 17th is a par 5 heading straight up the hill to a two tier green. Then it is off to the small birds nest T-Box for the 18th overlooking the southern valleys with a steep downhill 260 yard par 3, overshoot and can drive over the highway, so need to take care of club selection.

Some of the most rough and bumpy fairways I've played in a long time. Brace yourself so you don't have your back blown out by the gopher holes. Cart paths in decent shape but the fairways are crazy bumpy, tee box grass is long and tee boxes are tired. Fun layout, fair price for the quality of the tee boxes and how destroyed the fairways are.

This course is a little rough around the edges, but is nestled in a beautiful setting . The fairways are a bit narrow and the tee boxes a bit shaggy, however the quirkiness has some charm. Most of the back 9 is played again on holes 1-7, then 17 and 18 have their own place.

This is a interesting small 11 hole course - repeat first 7 holes twice with a very interesting 9 and 18 hole - big drop from top of the hill. Course condition is decent, but couple greens are so close to each other. Players are usually nice, and I have seen very beginners more often than other courses. I am taking about players can's even hit ball in three tries, not to mention hitting balls all over the places and keep looking for balls. :( But it's not a bad deal to play a round for about $40 on a weekend day. Greens are very small and pretty smooth, but pretty slow.

fairways not in good shape, off the fairway, grass way too thick , should be marked out of bounds
