Great views and layout

Played this course for the first time, not even looking at any pictures or course information. Booked a great deal on GolfNow and showed up to the first hole to be completely amazed. Starting at the top of a hill and hitting down into beautiful greens, big tress and mountains all around you is a pretty good way to start a game. Each hole, my group and I would take a second to look out before teeing off to admire the beauty around us. Pace was perfect. Never waited for the group in front and group behind us never waiting on us. Everything from the fairways to the cart path that takes you up and around the hillside passing under thick, green trees and bright greens on the other side. My new favorite course.

New forward tees not shown on scorecard

Overall, my husband and I enjoyed playing the course and recommend it. We selected tee boxes to play based on the scorecard; white and red. However, after about 4 or 5 holes a new set of green markers appeared between the white and red and the yardage for the reds changed to much shortage yardage on some holes. Very confusing on what to play. After the round, I asked in the pro-shop and was told a new set of tees added and the reds had been re-rated. They had forgotten to give me new scorecard. The guy was not apologetic at all. Poor customer service! If you plan on playing one of now "two" sets of forward tees, make sure you get the new scorecard. The old is useless.

Great course. Had a great round

We were on a road trip and golfed last minute. The golf now price made the round reasonable at 44 pp which was fair. Regular rounds are a little steep at 70 for my likening. We rented clubs which were 40 a set shock I also thought was a little high but they gave us Callaway X Hot2 so I can't complain as I am interested in buying them and I was able to get a feel for them so I happy the course was I great condition and challenging the only flaws I have about the course is they didn't have a beverage cart and we had a number of 2 some walkers who slowed play down. Being from Chicago out courses do not allow walkers during peak play as it slows down play to much. Some locals we played with agreed that the course should keep play moving by limiting walking folders at peak times. Other than that it was a great course and I would love to play it again and would recommend it to anyone.

View and Hills

I've played this course many times throughout the past years. The club does a very good job maintaining the fairways and greens. If you've never golfed this course you'll enjoy the hills and views. Overall a moderately challenging course and would recommend to anyone whose never played it. Would not recommend walking this course unless your looking for some good cardio!

Slow play

I have played this course several times and usually enjoyed it. However, this time, my son and I quickly caught up to a five-some and had to play behind them until we finally skipped a couple of holes to get around them. The group behind us had to do the same thing.

If they are going to allow fivesomes (and I don't think they should) they need to have marshals on the course to keep things moving.

Nice course, pretty views

We arrived in the foggy dark for our early tee time. We found the layout to be challenging with a lot of risk/reward shots. We finished early and ate breakfast in the dining room overlooking #18. The pancakes and omelets were fabulous! We replayed another round and as the morning marine layer cleared, we felt like we were playing an entirely different course. Really beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed our day at Laguna Seca and will play there again when visit the Monterey area again.

Challenging course, not good conditions

This is certainly a challenging course. Lots of elevation changes. Lots of doglegs. Lots of sand. Brutal to walk. I'd call it a "funky" design, which isn't a bad thing. Just certainly unique. Pace of play was great yesterday b/c no one was on the course. I've played before and it's been a 6 hour round though, probably because it's deceivingly tough and lots of holes where you don't hit too bad a shot but could still be searching for your ball for a while. Right now the course conditions are pretty bad. Likely due to the drought, but I don't expect to be back until I hear they've gotten much better. $50 with cart on GolfNow isn't bad, but too much for current conditions.

Very Enjoyable golf

I have played Laguna Seca many times before writing this review. However, I wanted to do this because of the conditions of the course. Right now, California is in the 3rd year of a pretty extreme drought, and I expected Laguna Seca to be in poor condition because of it. However, I found just the opposite. The fairways were beautiful and the greens were great. They are not letting the rough grow too high but the grass in the rough presents enough of a challenge that you don't want to go there (as it should). There are brown and dried out places but those areas are definitely way off the fairways and you shouldn't be in those places anyway (at least you shouldn't try to).
The staff, especially the pro David, are happy to see you and make your time getting through the details easy so you can get out there and play.
I would suggest riding a cart because the walk up both 9 and 18 is steep but the rest of the course is very walkable if you must.

Nice no fog area, most of the time

Enjoy playing, players ahead (3) were very slow on the greens. Playing from the back tees, should have Been White. Just our opinion! Did make us wait at every hole. Good time anyway.
