Length 6356 yards
Slope 131
Rating 71.6

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.

5 hour round cart path only for no reason!

When we arrived at the course we were informed cart path only😡. There was no mention when booking Excuse was the just sprayed the fairways? Why woulfd a golf cart affect more than people walking on course?!

We had to sit and wait to put our clubs on a cart till 10 minutes before our time even though there was5-6 carts sitting there. When playing a course for the first time cart path only makes round not enjoyable especially at 5 hours. Course was in good shape, there is some crazy slope to greens were if you are above the hole no chance!
