Opened in 1897, Del Monte™ Golf Course is the oldest course in continuous operation west of the Mississippi. Designed by golf and polo enthusiast Charles Maud, this inland course boasts a meandering, hilly layout that has challenged golfers for more than a century.

It was the original host of the California State Amateur-still played on Del Monte's narrow, tree-lined fairways and small,well-protected greens-and continues to serve as one of the three courses on which the Callaway Golf Pebble Beach Invitational is played.

Adjacent to Del Monte™ Golf Course, the Del Monte Pavilion offers an inviting outdoor setting for any special event. Whether you are hosting a corporate outing or a tournament awards ceremony, all events are impeccably catered by the Lodge at Pebble Beach.

Great Track!

Very nice course, greens were quick and small in compared to what I’m use to playing in Texas.

They did allow a few walk ups for open tee times although they REALLY slowed the pace of play. Still wasn’t bad overall and really enjoyed the round.

Danger on 1

No driving range is a real downer, then to start you off on a par 5 with houses! Wild move. Aside from the lack of warmup and scary first the course itself is great. Fun but challenging. Well manicured and clean.

Del Monte was pleasant surprise

i played Del Monte this week, & it was an absolutely enjoyable round of golf. I had heard that Pebble Beach Company stepped up. It’s game on the course over the last few years, and the tea boxes fairways and greens were absolutely in great shape. I highly recommend this track for the value and pace of play. The staff was very friendly and even though there’s no driving range, it still worked out just fine.

Awesome

Played at 8:20 tee time while on vacation. Awesome experience from Donnie in the pro shop, Christian the stater, and another gentleman I don’t remember his name. Rented Taylormade clubs . Great layout and if it weren’t cloudy in the morning you could see the ocean. Can’t wait to come back and play it again.
