Designed by George Santana, Gene Bates. Planted adjacent to hilly, wild terrain, this playable, park-setting layout is very popular with the local golfers. The par-3 course built in 1996 is great place to learn the game, but it will also put up a fight for the better golfer, with challenging greens and water hazards. From within San Jose: Off US 101, take the Bernal Road exit and drive west. Go about one and one-half miles and the course is on the left.
