Lovely Setting with Deferred Maintenance

Sharp Park is a nice little course with wide fairways and beautiful trees lining them. The fairway is a tad shaggy and the greens are fairly chewed up so a straight putt is nearly impossible. Despite this, it is a fun course to play.

Oh Sharp Park!

I love the course layout, I just wish the course was in better condition especially the greens. If the City could just spend a few $$ on it. It was such a beautiful day.

Great history amazing layout great value

Great layout and really really fun. The conditions are just ok but remember you just pay only $21. It feels that the maintenance is 80 years old the quality of the fairway and the greens is just old school. Can they make it better yes but it probably will need to triple the value. Fun to play and specially when you realize the history behind it. Beautiful place highly recommend jus remember the cost before complaining too much

Unusual course

Sharp park is a fun course near the ocean.

The weather is normally windy and cool even in the summer.

The course is not in good condition.

The layout is good and many holes are challenging and fun

Don’t Bother

This course has the potential to be an absolutely beautiful place to play golf. Long course, beautiful Monterey Cypress Trees lining the fairways, very similar to courses in Carmel and Monterey. But, the city of San Francisco owns this course. Need I say more? Part of the building didn’t have a wall! Our golf cart was falling apart and the brake didn’t work! Can’t make out the cart path because they are just weeds and mud-filled ruts. Nothing has been taken care of for many years, it really is a shame...

If Only If Only...

This course is beautiful. From its location to the rolling hills, trees, and fairways, it truly has the opportunity to be one of the best courses in the Bay Area. There are challenging holes and some very wide open fairways.

BUT....it is so poorly maintained. I understand there are some green renovations going on but those were the worst greens I’ve ever played on. No carts ever available. Club house in nonexistent and there are but two portable bathrooms on the entire course to use.

The potential is there. It’s a beautiful course. Just a shame it’s so neglected.

Sharp Park is a favorite!

My husband had an invitation to play at Harding, so I booked a round at Sharp Park. I walked 18, then played another 18. I had such eclectic pairings, and I loved the welcome by the men I played with.

Super layout

Great McKenzie course, with a back nine that has à links feel. Truly beautiful holes, greens are in the process of being refitted so the greens that were not temporary were deeply sanded. Rest of the course is superb so that whenever the greens catch up, this gem of a course will be an absolute steal for 34 bucks with an SF resident card.

No club house and no amenities, but the checking in staff could not have been nicer and more welcoming.

Definitely coming back.

Historical courses are poorly manage

U felt that a non resident is not welcome in this

course, greens and fairways needs maintenance,

pace of play are below standard, they don’t have

available carts, that the main reason the pace is

too slow
