Laguna Seca
Great course, excellent staff. My only suggestion would be to somehow get the people playing there to fix their ball marks on the greens. I fixed 10-15 extra on every hole.
Other than that it was a great day.
Great course
3rd time playing here. My go-to course when I'm on the west coast. Weather is always great, course is always in great shape. Pace of play is never an issue.
Very enjoyable golf experience.
The only downside to the experience was the club house and tenth hole snack shack were both closed on a Saturday, midday. Not able to purchase a cold beverage or lunch.
Course in good shape
Everything is good but expect to be able to putt on fast greens.
Great Day at Lagina Seca
This course has a number of different looks. Up hill and down hill. Narrow fairways on some holes. My problem for the day were the sand traps. The traps were very wet making it difficult to get out of. I live in the bay area which is 1.5 hours travel time so only play once a year. If you are traveling from the bay area, I suggest that you use the Salinas exit as it avoids the traffic into Monterey.
Course not in good condition
The greens were bumpy. The staff were not polite. One of them drove a cart by us, with clubs sticking out of his back basket, he squeezed by us, and hit one of the players. Instead of saying sorry, he rebuked us for parking where we were.
There was no Marshall, and the pace of play was slow. We had some
Impatient Players rain balls at us.:-((
Beautiful condition nice greens
2 nd time this week really enjoyed the course great value
Fun track
One of my favorite last minute decision golf courses. 6100 yard course. Greens are very puttable, despite Robert Trent Jones jr. Being involved in the design. Beautiful setting. Staff is always helpful and great. Just like any public course, pace of play is sometimes an issue on the weekend. That said, usually a quick round during the week.
Laguna Seca has a good variety of holes.
Have played Laguna many times over the years. Good layout, with a nice vairety of holes. The biggest fault about Laguna is the slow play. There are a couple of par 5's which the average ameatur THINKS they can reach in 2, AND CAN'T, which slows play. There are also several holes where it is easy to lose a ball if your shots are off target.
Tough public test
Do not attempt to walk this course unless you know what your getting into. Up and down fairways. Greens break at the hole a lot (could have been pin position that day). A lot of tough tee shots hat are strategic also.
Nice public course near legendary raceway
I like this course because of its elevated tees and greens. Its a hilly course so I would recommend using a golf cart. Just try to get to the driving range and you will know what I mean. The course has plenty of challenges that would make the round entertaining. I played on a weekday afternoon and the pace of play was great. Nice mature trees are present on most of the holes and plenty of bunkers guarding each green. Elevated greens on a number of holes so take an extra club when in doubt. The greens are good but I saw noticable differences in green condition from front 9 and back 9 (better).
Re-Review
This is a quick re-review to add some pictures. A fantastic and fun course in all respects.
POP, staff in the pro shop, challenge / forgiveness of the course and it's maintenance are all top notch. My only mild gripe would be the (senior) food server at 19. She can be a bit crabby, but, I've come to expect it and now I just see it as part of the establishment's overall charm!
A previous poster said that #10 and #15 should be imploded. I couldn't disagree more. Love the challenge of both. I'm not really a fan of the uphill drive at #9 but the extra nice staff at the #10 snack shack make it worthwhile!
If you haven't played LS, you owe it to yourself. Great course for a great price.

Great Value
Very nice course. Can,t beat the price for a course of this quality.
Really nice course
Great course! Had alot of fun playing this track and was very impressed with the overall condition as well. I would definately play here again and/or refer it to others who play golf.
Rough greens
overall this is a good course. 2 areas that could use improvement are the greens and sand traps. They are inconsistent.
A lovely course in between Monterey and Salinas
I really like this course have played it many times. It is set on the side of the mountain so you get lots of elevation changes and have to know where to hit it on some holes do to that fact. a good example would be the 10th hole make sure you hit it up by the left rough so that the ball will roll down to the center of the fairway what ever you do do not go right.
Fun Evening at Laguna Seca
Each hole has it's own character! Enjoyed it and it was a good deal!
Friendly Place
Nice staff, well maintained course, newish carts, nice bunkers. Overall a fun place to play.
carts
the last two times i've played laguna the cart almost lost it's power towards the end of the round. are the batteries old? the brakes were often difficult to set once parked.
