Carmel Highland Golf Resort

The course it was in extremely poor condition. The greens were in bad shape, and the fairways were also bad, no grass in many parts. Of the fairway would often be hitting off of dirt.

Very understaffed for a Sunday with only one person working the checkin, payment, starting, and carts.

No plans to play here again.

It appears like they have given up on the course maintenance. The practice facilities were worse. It looks like the course has a lot of potential.

Fairways had some hard pan areas due to time of year but the sand traps were hard as a rock. Still had an enjoyable round and will continue to play here

This course has been in bad shape for a number of years, the staff is very helpful explaining the problems to the golfers who have not played the course. i would strongly urge you to talk to the pro shop before you make a tee time. The course is in need of major maintenance.

Great course, excellent greens that play fast! I live close by so it's easy to get to with great green fees with frequent promotional rates

Not a bad little course if you can find a deal on Golf Now. The greens were very quick, and the hole locations very tough this day. Overall its a descent course with a fairly interesting layout and OK playing conditions.

It was hard to pass up the offer of a round with a cart, a bucket of balls and breakfast for $30!
The practice area is minimal, but enough to get warmed up for the round. Albeit they were surprised when I asked for the bucket, as if other golfers chose to forego the free practice balls.
The breakfast was good. It was a small buffet with plenty of different options for everyone, but nothing special. Although I work in F/B and have managed clubhouses so my standards are a little higher than most.
The course itself was decent. I got paired up with the very nice old Japanese couple. These days I can get through a round in 3.5hrs by myself if the course is open. The rate of play for this round during an open morning was a bit longer than that, but it was great for me at the time. Every one shot of mine was two of theirs and I needed the time.
There are some challenges here and there on the course. The most prevalent is the sloping fairways. The course is on the west side, but right next to I-15. You can see it on your right before exiting if you are traveling I-15 South.

Momma told me if ya can't say anything nice... BUT,
To be honest I had bad round but the course really helped by being in rough shape, Hard / Bare fairways inconsistent greens, fast or super fast, Traps 1 inch of sand then hard pan. Best part of the round was the Buffet ! Sorry wont be back for a while.

Good course, challenging but with a strait shot. Pretty manageable.. plat those hills. They can really be a help.. greens are tough.

This is a very nice course especially with the green fee @ $19 inclusive of cart. The course was challenging enough with lots of trees (which make the course feel relaxing) and some narrow fairways. Lengths vary with very short and very long par 4's. Greens are slightly fast. Overall course condition is fine, I can't understand why some people in other reviews are complaining. I can say that this course can be enjoyed by amateur golfers of all levels.

Not in the greatest of shape but looks like they are trying to bring it along. Good value for the money.Pace of play in the afternoon was good. Teed off at 12:20 and finished 18 by 4:30 as a foursome.Actually found the bunkers to be some of the best i have played around here,actually had some sand in them and could play a real bunker shot. I have found a lot of bunkers in the area to have 2 inches of sand over clay base and you have to decide to risk a scull shot out or chip out which is never fun.

Could have used a Marshall for slow group (2) two groups ahead!

Played here yesterday and enjoyed the course. Coming from the Pococnos it was nice to play a course where you had to think about grades and lies and ball placement. Too many flat courses here in SoCal. The staff were friendly and the value was great. Yes the fairways were burnt from summer heat but it certainly didn't ruin the experience and the greens were in nice shape.

Interesting course. Very hard & tight fairway lies. It's worth playing.

staff is not friedly serve. and the course is not good and need fix .

The coarse was in reasonable shape. There is some slope
to the fairways but that is not too bad. The fairways are green
and play well. It is hard to lose a ball there, I like that. The
greens were in good condition and fairly soft. over all this
was a good place to be.

For a great experience and a good pace I would recommend this course to anyone!!!

Played here with my father-in-law on Saturday. I was pretty embarrassed on how poor the conditions were. I can count on one hand how many times I had a good grass lie after a tee shot. Around the green was just as poor. The greens were just OK. If you are not used to playing or putting on a course that slopes to one side (I 15) all day long or used to having a down the middle tee shot end up being in the rough because of slope and no grass to stop it, I would not waste your time or money at this course. Just being Honest.

The staff was cordial but I wouldn't call them friendly. The ranger approached us on the 2nd fairway and asked us to speed up because the group behind us complained that they waited too long...on the first hole? When he approached us we were waiting for the group ahead to clear the green so we could hit our approach shots. You'd think he would've noticed. The fairways were in terrible shape (brown areas all over the place) and the greens were fair at best. I won't play there again.

They just left the course dry and unmaintained. Used to be nice.
