The
Eagle Ridge Golf Club is locarted in the World Famous city of
Gilroy - well-known as the Garlic
Capital of the World. Gilroy is also a
Gateway to the Central Coast due to Its location within an hour's drive of
both the Bay Area and the Monterey Peninsula, thus making it an ideal
gathering place for the Northern California golf enthusiasts.
Eagle Ridge Golf Club
is a challenging course with its rolling hills layout and setting amongst the oak-studded
foothills that has delighted countless players during its more than five
years of existence.
The
public venue's 18 holes were meticulously designed by Ron Fream and
David Dale to incorporate the existing movement of the land, frequent
natural water features and spectacular views. And like many relatively
upscale modern courses, six sets of tee boxes offer
plenty of options, making the course range from 7,005 yards from the
black tees to slightly more than 5,102 from the burgundy markers.
Tree-lined,
swelling fairways lead to multi-tiered greens that are protected by
dramatic bunkering, a scattering of rocks and diverse water features.
The layout is sprinkled with 92 bunkers, three lakes on two holes and
creeks on seven holes. Yet it remains a fair-minded test to a variety
of challengers.
