overall - nice day !!

finished in 4 1/2 hours due to a slow group in front of us - greens were in great shape. Bunkers could use some sand. No pin location info was negitive.

Perfect Middle Spot

It's simple, this place is not your Pebble Beach/Spyglass, nor is it your cheap local golf course tucked up and around a trailer park/major highway.

The course is nestled nicely in the middle of CA-68 and very rarely are you hugged up against the road. It is VERY easy. The only thing causing hesitation are a few doglegs (which could be cut with the right swing) and basically every hole has a bunker in the front left and right side of the green. The course is also pretty short, if you are a bogey golfer or better, have some fun and play from the tips.

Overall the conditions were great. It was not burnt up, the greens rolled great, and the fairways were pretty well kept.

The staff won't lend any kind of niceties to you. You come in, check in, go on your way. No small talk here. For me, I am ok with that. I'll chat with the people I am out playing with.

Pace of play

Normally we can finish our game in about 3 hrs for 2 players. This time it took 4hrs 20 mins because there was a flight of 5 players in front of us. We suggest that a flight should be limited to max of 4 players.

Fun Course in Monterey

Was looking for a quick morning round while in the area, and this course came highly rec on this site. It did not disappoint. Fast pace, great conditions for the price. Got a deal on golfnow.com. Strategic golf, fairly forgiving, quick greens, lots of fun. No ocean views, but very nice little track. And the food in the restaurant is GREAT!

Harder than it looks

Good test of golf. Some very hard greens to hit as some lack depth and are hard surfaces. Rough around the greens makes it harder to score than the yardage indicates. Very friendly staff and was uncrowded. Always seem to get several double bogeys here that seem avoidable.

Tony Bennett-I left my heart in MONTEREY

The day started out before 7am with fog which was a none factor by hole 3. Course was in top shape. Had the luxury of World Super Bike sounds in the back ground on some holes being that the course is next to Laguna Seca Raceway that weekend. Being 64 I like shooting hilly courses which we have a lot in California. I would 100 o/o recommend this course. There are NO homes that even remotely come into play on this course. The greens were super nice an a little fast which made it more fun. Put this one on your list...

Beautiful Setting

We visited from Arizona and enjoyed the grass-covered hills surrounding the course. The fairways are "fair", and the greens are very good. The front nine is easy, while the back nine is more challenging. A good value for this area. Food in the restaurant was very good.

Much Better!

My last review was fairly negative. The greens were awful, the fairways skimpy, the bunkers in need of sand.

Well, someone has been working hard and spending some money. The greens have healed and are rolling well. The fairways have thickened up. The sand traps are excellent.

I like this track but it went in the dumper for about a year. Now I would not hesitate to play it.

YAY for the Laguna Seca owners and management.

The course is in really nice shape. Fairways & and greens look good. Greens are fast and firm. We played 18 in just over three hours so the pace was good too.
