Needs some water

Played here first time since before covid. I love the layout. Greens were fantastic. The ball rolled true and speed was medium fast. Unfortunately, the fairways were dry and had many bare spots. Pace of play was fairly slow - nearly 5 hours to complete the round.

Slow play - wow!

Played front 9 in 2-1/2 hours. Played 10-13 in 2-1/2 hours at which time I gave up. Group in front of me also left and 2 people playing in my foursome also gave up. On way back to clubhouse, saw foursome holding everything up with empty holes in front of them. No marshalls. I did talk to a marshall halfway through the front 9 who advised “whole course was jammed up”. I hesitate to play here again after this.

Sunny In Sunnyvale

The course was in good condition - freshly mowed and greens looking good. Pace of play was average for time of day (12:20 starting time). My son and I enjoy this course and try to play once a week.

Lush And Green

Everything was so lush and green. Greens were very fast but rolled true. I played here years ago but don't remember it being so well manicured.

Challenging course

Great course - lush, green, with spectacular views. Was very breezy there for a while, then died down. Many elevation changes. Greens were moderately fast and very challenging - hard to pick lines.

Nature At Its Finest

Spectacular canyon scenery. So serene and calm you almost forget about why you are there. The front nine is moderately difficult but it's just a prologue to the perils of the back nine. The holes on the back play extremely long. Shotmaking skills are challenged. The course conditions were excellent and the greens were fast and treacherous.

Challenging Course

I used to play here regularly - moved away - now moved back. Course layout has changed slightly to make it easier to play. Still great layout with challenging holes, narrow fairways, & nicely manicured greens. Deep barrancas abound. Thankfully, they are lateral hazards instead of stroke and distance. The fairways were burnt out, very dry ground, many bare dirt spots - almost bordering on cow pasturish but smooth. Too much money for what you get. I would only recommend after it starts raining again.

New Layout

First time playing here since they combined Diablo and Gabilan into one course. I miss several of the Diablo holes that had a lot of character and don't feel they were replaced with anything so interesting. Nonetheless, this new combined course plays well and is well kept up in spite of the current drought. Greens are in good shape and roll fairly fast. I still rate this course as one of my favorites in the area.

My new favorite course

I have played here several times now. The staff is the friendliest I have ever met and knew me by name after 2 visits. The course is lush and green, fairways moderately wide, and greens are very small. Although not that long in yards, the course plays as a fairly difficult course. I like the elevation changes and views from the highest points. The greens play fast and have subtle breaks but the ball rolls true. There are tree and water hazards to kep your game sharp. It doesn't get any better than this.

A great value for the money.

This is one of my favorite courses in the area. There are elevated tees and greens to provide challenges. Although fairways are wide, there are doglegs and water to spice things up. The greens were a bit slow and it took a while to figure them out.
