Sunnyvale Municipal Golf Course

Sunnyvale is a golf course located across the Southbay Freeway, you literally play golf along the freeway. The interesting part is to drive the cart underneath the freeway to the next hole. Not much design, but certainly a nice course to play in, if really have to pick one, Hole 8 is that you tee off right by Samsung Research Center. (Make me want to work in Samsung 😄).

I picked hot and muggy to play and there is not enough tree to hide from sun and we should rented the golf cart. Anyway, it was fun and most of the water in the pond dries up and you will not loose any balls LOL. Nice course and I would go back again. I wish they have someone selling water at course 9 and 10. I was dying from the heat 😂 New update and why I am giving 4 stars . They seem to run of driving cart after 2 pm and get ready to walk. I don’t mind walking but having a cart save time for 18-holes golf course. I prefer Moffett where there are more driving cart.

Course layout is very good. Greens are mostly true. Maintenance could be better. Most players don't repair pitch marks or rake bunkers. Drought conditions, therefore no water bodies, but the "water" hazards are still challenging. Prices are excellent. Pro shop staff (Jake?) was friendly and helpful.

I rarely ever write reviews but this place is shocking— $100 (with cart) for mud/dirt/gopher holes everywhere (losing balls in the fairway because of it), no beverage cart, no snack or beverage stand at the turn (it was there but never opened on a Saturday morning lol), no shoe cleaning or ball cleaning stations.. no driving range. No chipping practice green. I’m not a great golfer (mid-high handicapper) and I generally enjoy playing often around the bay usually paying $40-$120 ish. But this is honestly like a $30 course. I’m genuinely dumbfounded as to where the money goes since it clearly doesn’t go towards the course or amenities. Take the drive to San Leandro for monarch bay honestly, half the price, comparable levels of maintenance, but actual amenities!

BEWARE OF THIEVES AT THE COURSE! I GOT MY ENTIRE BAG OF CLUBS STOLEN AT HOLE #8!! On Wed Oct 16th around 3:30PM, I was playing at the hole #8 which is the handicap #1 hole next to the freeway. If you've played at the Sunnyvale Course, you know this is the whole where you have to cross a little bridge over the hazard trench to get to and play on the green. After we teed off the hole and riding cart towards the hole, this guy in his early 30's with dark skin, about 6ft tall & skinny walks towards us and asked if we've seen a club that he lost. We said we didn't and played on to the green, parking the golf cart next to the bridge as we normally do. While we are playing on the green, i saw this guys came back and crawled on to our cart and started driving. At first, I thought he was mistakenly taken a wrong cart, as some of us might do. So I shouted at the guy that it was not his cart. He pretended he didn't hear me and kept driving the cart towards the underpass. I felt something was weird and started chasing after him while shouting for help. But he was on golf cart and I was running and so I fell behind. By the time I ran through the underpass I couldn't see him any more, who drove right through the proshop directly to the parking lot. I borrowed a cart from an employee and chased him towards the parking lot. When I reached the parking lot, I didn't know which car was his but thought I would drive towards the exit drive way of the parking lot to possibly block him from escaping. And I saw him right there, parked right next to the exit, trying to load my and my friend's clubs into his car, but he saw me coming and got in to his car. I confronted him near the exit and tried to block him, but I hit on a break as a natural instinct right when the cart i was driving was about to hit his black compact sedan, and he backed off a little and sped off around me on Macara towards the Maude intersection. I later found out he only had enough time to load my clubs and my friend's purse and left the rest, including my friend club set in the cart. If I was a little slower then I am sure he would have stoled both of our clubs and phones, etc. This was the first time crime like this ever happened at a golf course for me - I want everybody to be extra careful when you are playing and make sure you take your cart key and belongings with you when you are playing hole #8 green and make sure to watch your cart. Apparently, he was waiting at the hole #8 and was asking the same questions to a few other players before us trying to pick the target. This is really not a safe situation for the players, so I wanted to let people know and be aware. Also, if you were around the golf course last Wed and have any lead about this guy, please send me a note - I would appreciate it. Thank you!!
