Inept Staff

Checked in early for mid-afternoon round, given cart key, first hole wide open so went to tee box and staff member came running out of pro shop and said two players with pull carts had just arrived and were ahead of us. He pulled us off the tee in order to make us wait and play behind two walking players -an older man and woman with pull carts- for 18 holes. We are fast players and would never have seen them again after teeing off. Very embarrassing and unwarranted. Common sense would decide in favor of a riding cart over two pull carts on a hilly, hard to walk course as other reviewers have noted. We collected our clubs off the riding cart and left. A very sad experience.

Making great golf memories

Had another great golfing adventure @ Laguna Seca. The staff was quick and friendly. The pace of play was great. The greens are slow but if you hit it in the rough, it’ll sit up nice instead of sitting down. I like the old school carts that go a lil faster and doesn’t gps lock you out. If I had a choice between here and Del monte down the road, I would choose Del Monte just cause of the greens, but still a fun track. I shot a 92 with 6 pars for my first time there

Bumpy cart paths

I have played here many many times for many years.It is a very nice course. But. The cart paths there have been in very bad shape for so many years.A couple months ago they fixed the one on hole #8. But not anywhere else. I guess financial problem. Hopefully they have more support this year so they can fix the rest of cart paths.And remodel bathrooms. I recommend this course.

Great Layout w/ decent conditions

Laguna Seca is always one of my favorite layouts in the Peninsula. course conditions are remaining steady. Gone are the hit and miss days of not knowing what you’ll get when you show up. Greens roll nice and smooth at a moderate pace and the fairways have decent lush conditions throughout.

being it was the 4th of July holiday weekend with perfect weather, the 4.5 hour round seemed very acceptable. I did knock down the rating for staff friendliness. Not because of the folks in the pro shop. They were fine. But because apparently the general manager decided to change my tee time to accommodate other golfers. This was done without any notification to me and what irked me as the explanation to me was that I was a single and it was done to accommodate others. I get that no problem, accept that there was two other single’s in the group as well. As a local and prior LS club member, that didn’t sit well with me.

But it’s still a fun track and the 3 birdies on the day got me over my issue!

Enjoyable walk

Course in good shape - not perfect but good, and greens were true and rolled at a good pace. Great setting in the hills and great views from the high points in the course. Under 6200 from longest set of tees, but by no means an easy course. Good value for the Peninsula.

Beautiful and interesting course

Laguna Seca is mostly protected from the wind, and has a great variety of terrain and distance. It's always a challenge, especially if you have a hard time going straight.
