Carmel Valley Ranch
Conditions were great, pace was outstanding but it was very uncrowded. A few shots that were a little tricky if you haven’t been there before. I would most definitely play again.
Punched greens stink
Scheduled golf here with family member in town. Showed up to find greens had been punched and sanded and were basically unplayable. The person checling us in gave us a discount due to these conditions, but any reservations should have warned us about these issues. We would have never played a course with newly punched greens. A miserable day. No way to cancel and find another option at the last minute.
Back nine has cool elevation changes and nice views.
Under maintenance poor conditions of sanded greens
Arrived to find back 9 closed, had to play front 9 twice. Very good conditions tee/fairways but greens were heavily sanded, not advised until check-in. Would have preferred to know this in advance and would have played elsewhere.
Interesting Course
The course I was in great shape, from tee to green. A beautiful layout with lots of elevation change. Some holes re a bit difficult to judge what to hit off the tee. Due to elevation as well as strategically placed bunkers. Nevertheless, the course is very fair and a lot of fun.
Slowest round ever!
Upon arriving at the course I was told that a Member’s Match had been given my Tee Time and I had to Tee off 20 minutes later. The Match was sooo slow it turned into a 5.5 hour round of golf waiting on every shot on every hole.
RUDE!!!!
Love Carmel ranch
Love this course great place to play stuff outstanding pace of play can approve had force him in front of us must’ve been a money game would not let us go through only downer of the day highly recommended
Love the ranch
This course never disappointed, always in great conditions, great service and staff. Only issue is a foursome in front of us would not let USA two soho b pass making the back 9 very slow
Again love the course .
Thanks and will be back
First time at Carmel Valley Ranch
We played on a glorious day at Carmel Vallry Ranch! Staff were so friendly and the course was immaculate! The back nine is definitely more challenging than the front nine. I recommend this course for all levels of skill.
Stunning views on a well kept course
An exceptional staff from pro shop, range support, starters and Marshall’s. The course is in great shape and the scenic views are breathtaking. A truly great level of enjoyment.
