Sunken Gardens Golf Course

Staff routinely are rude to patrons for asking simple questions. The staff love to mismanage tee times, give away tee times, and make snarky comments. The tees are just mats for most holes. The greenskeepers love rolling right in front of shots.

Miles in the pro shop is one of the main reasons I enjoy this course so much. He’s very friendly, understanding and just a cool dude. The practice green is very large and nice, the driving range is irons only due to nearby houses. There are 2 par 4’s on the course. The 2nd hole tee box is under repair but can still pull out the driver and hit the green. There’s no water hazards but there are a fair amount of bunkers to create a challenge. After the round they have a really good barbecue restaurant and bar. Friendly staff in restaurant and bar as well. Very quiet and peaceful. Late spring and through early fall they have live bands on Saturday evenings.

Over experience was nice. I was expecting to play by myself, but was paired with another threesome. I was unaware of this until after the fact that I got there also I was hit with an extra $20 expected at check-in when I got to sunken Gardens. When using the GolfNow application, it should tell you that an extra charge will be expected when you got there before paying for the teatime that you reserved. I’m not gonna lie for a nine hole course $50 is kind of steep. If I was doing 18 then maybe that would be more of a reasonable price. I would recommend somebody here but if you do not want to play with people you do not know and I expect you to come with at least two or three people just so you are not pushed into another group game and would hope to see whatever is expected to pay at the place before setting up my teatime because honestly, that was probably the worst part of it all. Besides that it was a really nice course

Good quiet short courses. No need for driver , practice short game and putting

This is my favorite executive course in the San Jose area. First of all, the range is inexpensive relative to the other ranges I've been to in the area. It's an irons only range, but I don't need to be warming up my driver for an executive course. Mats are in good condition and i havent found many cracked range balls. One minus about the practice facility is that there's no chipping green.

The course is good fun. A good place to learn. Holes 5 and 6 are decently challenging though. It has been raining so some of the the tee boxes you need to hit off mats. With that being said the bunkers are still nice and soft. Greens were in excellent condition. Pace of play can be a bit slow as it seems this couse is popular with the senior crowd.
