POOR STAFF MEMBER

I have been coming to Santa Teresa Golf Club with family members since 1969. This summer my family and I started to really get in to golf again, and we’ve been out at Santa Teresa very frequently, multiple times a week. However, the experience has been deteriorating due to customer service. There is one particular female staff member with black hair that works in the pro shop that has been consistently rude every time we have interacted with her. She does not treat customers with respect and talks down to them at every possible chance at the pro shop. She also has given my son and his friends a hard time when buying beers from the snack bar even though they are all above 21 years of age with valid IDs. I have confirmed her rude behavior with two other friends of mine that also golf at Santa Teresa. For example, today we asked about filling a no show tee time for the short course since we were on the range; there were three holes open on the short course with no one teeing off. As I went to ask the pro shop, she cut me off from entering even though I had my mask on. She then proceeded to not give an ounce of respect to me throughout the entire conversation, and would not even let me enter the pro shop to ask about tee times. I understand the COVID restrictions and respect them very much, but there was a better way for her to interact with a customer (that wants to give business to you) rather than being totally rude. This example is a good representation of how she interacts with us every time we are out there. Finally, on our way out after some more snide remarks she then told us to not come back anymore! This is only ONE of the bad interactions we’ve had with her! The good days for us this summer have been when we have not had to see her out there. Somehow she has lost the concept of treating the customer right, and in the process she has completely removed our interest in wanting to come to this course again. After 51 years and three family generations of playing golf at Santa Teresa, enough is enough...WE ARE DONE!

Breezy

Enjoyed the round. Breezy. Some greens a little bumpy -- REPAIR THOSE BALLMARKS PEOPLE, THANKS. The 10 minute rule for picking up carts is not optimum. We can do all pre-round warm ups -- range, putting green, bloody mary, distancing -- easier with a cart than without a cart.

Nice Fairways

Walking 18 on a hot afternoon is pretty rough but with it. The conditions were good and I give them credit for doing everything they can to make it safe for golfers during the pandemic.

Sanded greens

Had fun except for the sanded greens. No warning was given before I booked it. We skipped playing Sunnyvale because there was a green sanding warning.

Still a good time!

An easy walk to enjoy

I'm biased, as ST is technically my "home" course since I live within walking distance.

It might feel "overpriced" to many who play on weekends with a cart, but during the week and at twilight, it feels like a steal while walking it.

I wish more munis could be kept in this type of shape. It is firm and bouncy, so you have to control shots and play the ground game. A few holes are mundane, but overall, an interesting and thoughtful layout.

My only complaint would be the all-mats range. Wish it were grass.

Warm, Sunny

I've played ST for over 30 years, and enjoy the layout as well as the course conditions of this popular golf course.

My request to players: REPAIR YOUR BALL MARKS. I make a point of repairing mine as well as 1 or 2 others on each hole. The course and facility is well-maintained.

Good public course in silicon valley

Good public course in South San Jose. Has all the usual amenities ( with the exception of bunker practice areas). Great for kids, beginners and mid handicappers. Kind of pricey for the layout.
