Sharp Park Golf Course

The fairways were long due to lack of mowing due to rainy weather. If they are mowed and not swampish the course would be awesome!! Waiting for a sunny day.

It was the new experience in the worst wet field condition. I gave up completing the rounding on the 12nd hole since I was exgausted with wet ground condition's walking. Even the ball on the fairway used to be disappeared into the wet ground on the 4th hole. If somebody would to have the worst field condition and patience, he/she might make a booking in this golf course.

Course was extremely wet and unplayable in several spots. Haven’t played in the area before so not sure if this is normal. Greens were in very good condition an d I thought the layout was very good. Club house is in terrible condition.

I played Sharp Park Golf Course by chance. I was in the area for work and wanted to squeeze a few holes in.

Sharp Park had available tee times and given the area, at a very reasonable price.

The clubhouse has history and is unpretentious with friendly staff but overdue a lick of paint.

To be frank, conditions weren't great but good enough for a practice round and beginner golfers.

Some pretty holes but also waterlogged fairways.

For the price, I would recommend.

Course layout is great. Too bad city does nothing to improve drainage issue. Always muddy unless it’s during summer time with no rain.

Course was saturated with water the greens were aerated
There isn’t a ball washer on the course. To me it’s not worth $60 plus $25 for the cart to play

This course shouldn’t be charging when it rains. I was losing ball after ball in the middle of the fairway to large puddles and swampy areas that make walking a pain as well. The course should have been closed due to weather and lack of maintenance.

I am a Bay Area resident and this course has been on my to-do list for a while. I finally got the opportunity to play it with my wife on Christmas Day. We weren’t paired with anyone and mostly played at our own, relatively quick pace until we slowed down on the back nine. The weather was great for December, but the course was very wet, which required picking the ball cleanly to avoid a swampy, chunky disaster. The guys who checked us in were lovely. The restaurant was closed, because it was Christmas Day, so no comment on that. The greens were pretty beat up. One green, forgot which, was unplayable. Although the course has been altered significantly since Alister MacKenzie designed it, it still has more than the ghost of the original design. Getting to play a (partial) MacKenzie course for a GolfNow hot deal rate is still an amazing deal. Would I play it again? Probably not given the other options, but I’m still glad I had the opportunity.

Pros:
In an absolute beautiful location with glimpses of the ocean throughout
Very walkable
Super easy course with a fun layout

Cons:
Terrible condition (greens were in horrible condition and the fairway had very little grass)
Extremely slow
Lots of beginners and drunk people slowing the game down

Overall:
While a fun course with an interesting layout, the overall condition and pace of play completely ruined the round. Impossible to have a good time when putting on dirt, while waiting 5-10 minutes between shots. I’m glad I played here, but I would never come back again

This is not a golf course. This is a Forest where you play golf….

Great track. Its never going to be pristine but it was in good shape.

I went out during a fairly rainy and very windy day - (18-25mph) expecting the rain to dissipate within an hour, which of course, it didn't. Maybe 2 holes.
I saw only one other player on the course, so either I'm a genius or on the other end of the spectrum!
Driving was the hardest part. A good half of the holes are into the wind or 90 degrees to it. And I had 3 layers on which made it tough to get a decent swing.
To be honest, I had a lot of fun. I was able to go right at the pin with approach shots and short chips, of which I had a lot. My short game was 9 out of 10 - which ket my score decent considering the conditions. The greens were much easier to play on being so wet and slow - whereas under normal conditions, the greens play extremely fast - something I am finding on the majority of Northern California public course - this is something I find highly frustrating - there's no reward for decent shots - not how public muni courses should be set up in my opinion. The course was in very good condition all in all - much better than earlier in the year - when I last played. And the course was littered with hundreds of golf balls - which after a few holes I realized had been shaken out of the cypress trees due to the 2-3 days of super high winds. I'd say there were an average of 15 balls per hole at least. Admittedly I picked up a few - but left the majority. Honestly, I'd play this course again in these conditions, perhaps a little less windy... Maybe wear a thinner 3rd layer so as to free up my swing a little. It's a great value for a lush green picturesque public course.

It could very beautiful course and better when
It maintained better! It was overall satisfying
Round! I’d play again and would recommend
The course!
