San Jose Municipal Golf Course

Good course with above average conditions. Fairways in good shape. A little slow paced

My friends and I don't ask for alot other than nice greens, generally flat tee boxes and good course conditions. The pace of play was even good. Overall great experience here will try again

The only issues I had with the course was rough around the greens was crazy long and there was a lot of choppy areas just off the fairway. Greens were great, and fairways were very nice for a muni. Tee box’s weren’t perfect but no major issues on most of them. Probably the best bang for your buck in the South Bay and maybe even the east bay and peninsula.

The Good: course was in good shape. Receptive greens and well conditioned fairways. Nice warm up and practice facilities.
Have played here many times in the past and usually enjoy it.

The Bad: Teed off as a threesome at 12:40 pm and didn’t make the turn till about 3 pm. Waited on all holes and when we got to 10 tee we were waiting to tee off as two groups in front of us were still at the tee box. On pace for over a 5 hour round was too much for a Tuesday so I needed to jet. I asked for a 9 hole refund/rain check and was asked to fill out a form and I would get a call from their ‘operations manager’. Still have not heard back! Needless to say this experience was pretty bad.

I was lucky enough to play before they sanded the greens... I’m a good putter but they had way to many divots.
That’s not the muni fault but it does sucks for the players.
I noticed a lot of weeds all over the pace and some dead spots.
Now that’s laziness.

Pace of play was slow, rented a cart and had to return in when I was on hole 17, couldn’t even let me finish my round.

Always a good time and in good condition.

The fairways are good condition. The rough is manageable. Only a handful of holes are dangerous off the tee, and doesn't come into play if you average 230 or less off the tee. Not a lot of low trees, so you can escape trouble. But some spots off the fairway are kind of mud or hardpan... basically spots of no grass. It's cool by me since it's off the fairway.
Greens were very nice. Rolled true. Not very tricky, or fast. Most of the greens do slope steep in one direction. I felt like usually front to back. And they seemed on the small side. So hitting some is a little challenging and a long way above of the hole can spell 3 putt.
I recommend playing in the morning. From what i heard that's best since it can get windy in the afternoon, and i felt that as we were finishing around 1:00pm.
Pace is good. Everybody i saw had great etiquette and picked up the pace when they were caught up to... including our group :)
Easy parking. One note, range does not open until 9am. Staff is friendly and helpful. Good walking course as it's flat. Go play here. Great value.
