Gilroy Golf Course
About
It might not have a lot of competition, but Gilroy Golf Course dubs itself as the "Best 11-Hole Golf Course in America." Built by local farmers and businessmen in 1923, this unique 11-hole routing east of Santa Cruz features small greens and wide, tree-lined fairways set along the Uvas Valley that has changed very little since its founding. Though not a full 18, the golf course is still plenty challenging, including the 245-yard par-3 8th hole, a scenic tee shot considered to be the course's signature. Gilroy Golf Course has suitable BBQ and outing facilities for larger groups.

Hello Gilroy Golf Course. Allowing 5-somes creates a slow pace of play. Huge sections of your fairways are dead. The greens are in awful condition, to the point that you have to place your pins in certain positions to avoid the dead zones. I asked where I could get a bottle of water at the turn and staff looked at me like I was asking for plutonium. It was such a bad experience that I won't be coming back unless you make sweeping changes to your management and upkeep.

Good course the grass is nothing special but it is very green and well kept greens were a bit slower than usual but all good except for one par 3 that looks as if local riff raft had a pass party I recommend it.
