Very interesting course

This course can be difficult. Very hilly. Not recommended for walking. Greens were slower than expected. Overall the condition was good very considering it is the middle of a very hot summer.

Great course in this price range!

First time playing as I wanted to try a new course away from the San Jose/SV area. I'm glad that I tried Callipe! The course conditions were almost immaculate. The fairways were in great shape, the greens were very well manicured as well. Tough course if you lack accuracy on your drives, luckily I didn't have that issue today. Beautiful views all around.
I finished in exactly 4 hours (teed off at 3pm). Played by myself. Will gladly go back and try to improve on my 88 that I shot today.

Good Course Overall

Expect a 4 to 4 1/2 hour round. About 2 -3 min wait on each tee box. 2 - 3 holes are car path only (not including the par 3 holes).

Fun layout and good conditions

This was my first time playing here but it won’t be my last. I thoroughly enjoyed this track. Super fun layout with a great variety of holes. Some require absolute tester golf with less than driver off the tee while others allow grip it and rip

Track is set on a hillside so there is plenty of elevation changes throughout as well as some forced Carrie’s over barrancas

Course conditions are good all around. Greens rolled slower than my liking but they held approach shots well and rolled smooth

Fairways were lush and green thorough. There were a few brown and thin areas here and there but nothing bad.

Tee boxes were level with good coverage and sand traps had decent sand in them.

Kids in the pro shop were very friendly and helpful. Pace of play was slow which is apparently normal for here other than that just a super fun experience. I’ll be back for sure

On a Tuesday! 20min delayed tee time then a 5hr round

If you don’t have 6+ hours for a round of golf (on a weekday!) don’t come here. Checked in at 10:45 for an 11:08 tee time. Tee box had a stack up 3 groups deep - not a good start. Two holes in and we were backed up again, with no Marshall to be seen, so sat again for 20 minutes.

Played the first 9 in just under 2.5hrs, made the turn and had to wait another 20 minutes. Not sure if a group stopped for lunch or if they sent a new group out starting in the middle. In either event, the final 9 were even slower than the start, and never saw a Marshall again!

The staff told me this was the norm, so set your time expectations low.

Great course with great views!

Course is in great shape and I have always enjoyed playing here! The wind and green locations can be quite challenging but make for a fun experience. The pace of play is generally pretty slow here but that’s expected when it’s one of the nicer public courses in the Bay Area. Twilight rounds are a great deal but don’t expect to get a full 18 in. Cheers.

Great course to challenge your game for average players

This course is the best course for an average player. Most holes are not long. But you still have to hit your ball fairy straight - not widely off to right or left. It has several interesting and challenging holes (specially hole 10, 17 and 18), You can mess up your score pretty bad. Overall, the course is in a good shape and well maintained. It sits inside the valley of Pleasanton and provides a great relax scenery view. Even I did not hit well in several holes, I enjoyed playing in this course. I will definitely come back for the challenges!

Marshalls needed

The layout of this place is super fun and they keep it in pretty good condition. Unfortunately that doesn't overcome the awful pace of play. Took us almost 5 hours to get through 15 holes before we quit and went home. Didn't see a single Marshall, but we definitely saw the group with multiple holes open in front of them that was slowing down the entire course. My buddy took his clubs off his cart and pretended to be the Marshall and told them to get moving. This course needs a dedicated Marshall on each 9. Hard to play well when you are taking 20 minutes to play each hole, waiting to hit constantly.

Need marshals - Slow back 9

Finished front in 2 hours. Went to snack bar to grab a beverage and 10th tee had 3 groups on it plus one in fairway. Took over 3 hours to play back nine. I don’t know if they let groups off the back but never saw a marshal the entire round.
