Challenging (for me), but beautiful and an awesome value
Very challenging (for me), but a fun layout. Beautiful views of the south/east bay, hence the name: Bay View 😂. I will definitely be back —- awesome
3rd Times a charm
This is my 3rd time playing Bay View. The track is really starting to grow on me with its variety of hole shapes and overall conditions. As mentioned before the course layout traversed a hill with several of the holes having steep sideways slope to the fairways.
Greens are receptive to approach shots and roll true. Bunkers are a little thin but very playable. Fairways have good coverage throughout. Some of the tee boxes are uneven
POP was horrible. There were 3-4 groups waiting up on the tee boxes to start. This was due to a Jr tournament taking longer than expected. It took over 3 hours to finish the front nine alone.
But moral of the story is don’t book a weekend afternoon round on the day of a a jr rournamenr.
Other than that the course is fun to play and has decent conditions
Not a bad course
Definitely improved since the time before last when I played pre start of Covid in 2019.
Appreciate the new owners putting in time to improve the grounds, updates to their on premise range and practice green.
Only thing that is a bit annoying but tolerable are the carts geo fencing. Go off the mark just a bit and your cart disables and you have to reverse to get back in allowed functional range. Not every shot hits the fairway so when you're just in the the rough furthest from the designated cart path the cart disables. Even if your ball is on the next fairway, I've seen golfers not be able to drive to it. What's the point of having GPS yardage on the cart if you can't park next to the ball? Understand limits and safety of course but the geo fencing on the golf carts could be programed a bit better.
Overall course has much improved and have played it twice this summer so far. I will likely be back and look forward to any new additions the owners add to this great site.
2nd visit
I had low expectations based on the prior reviews that I had read. I found the course to be in better shape than the rating stated.
This course is, however, very tough. Nothing is level. Every fairway leans drastically to one side of the other..
I just chalked it up to practice. Staff is just fine. The driving range could be better.
Nice way to spend a day
Course was challenging. The tee boxes very choppy. Greens ok
The pace of play was good till #10 then it goes to crap 5 hrs for the round the front nine 1:45hrs the back 3:15 no marshals no beer cart
Amazing views of San Jose
Strategic and rewarding
Second time playing here, this time in the afternoon with the wind. If you plot your way around the challenging fairways you will be rewarded with some scoring clubs in your hand. Conditions of the course are all around decent to slightly above average. Nothing superior but nothing to complain about. It’s a fun, challenging layout that has some creative holes that really make you think off the tee. Greens are receptive and hold well struck approach shots.
Pace of play seemed slower than it actually was
Course has nice views being on top of a hill and there’s a decent bar/restaurant to greet you afterwards
Youth Supervision
During our visit there was many youth participating in what appeared to be golf clinics. The groups of kids were being supervised by what appeared to be young adults or teenagers. They had very little control of the behavior of the kids. At one point a golf ball almost struck my wife and I on the driving range that came out of the simulator area. Out on the course we saw a larger cart taking 4 kids out to play a hole. The girls in the cart were yelling out We're going to die", because the instructor was traveling way to fast. The profanity the youth were using was also unacceptable especially for a golf course.
Other than that our experience at Bay View was great and will plan on playing the course again in the future.
Pace of play is horrendous
Our group was stacked with 2 in front and 1 behind from holes 2 thru 7. After 7 we went to the clubhouse to request a rain check and was accused of lying with the shop employee claiming we were on pace. 10-15 minute wait on each tee box is never on pace. Will never return with the amount of better value options in the South Bay Area…
Bayview is a good golf course - not well maintained
Bayview golf course is not well maintained. The bunkers don’t have enough sand. The tee boxes are uneven and fairways are not maintained well. The price charged - it isn’t value for money.
