Great course

Greens were punched nearly a month ago and have healed nicely. Course is in good shape. Played super fast, walked and finished slightly under 4 hours. Great day

Only play if you have 5 and half hours to spare

Course is decent, although you’ll be playing at snails pace. Gave up after 9 holes, and this is on Wednesday, not even a weekend

First Time Playing

Monarch Bay Golf

Very long course. 6800 yards. It got very windy. The course needs water . We are in a drought though. Greens were recently plugged. Pace of play was slow. I walked the course. Great workout.

Challenge in wind

Greens are awesome. Windy is almost unfair because holes playing North to South are getting pushed left, the OB line is just off the fairway and the wind pushes it that way. 3 times in drove in the fairway to have it trickle of into the OB . Found the balls with beautiful lie , but OB and 2 shot penalty.

Ok place to olay

Not a bad place to play but very slow play. Over 2 hrs for nine and ended up just leaving. Driving range is mats only and practice green is ok. They could do more to speed up play, have beverage cart out to sell drinks/food. For the price there are other places to play that I feel are better value.

Windy weather
Used cart

Heavily bunkered with uneven turf but a decent links layout

Good links layout somewhat spoiled by crab-grass infected fairways. The uneveness of the turf is similar to always playing from a divot. But the fairways are built for distance, very wide and quite fast, Pace of play was very slow, 5+-hour round. The greens were difficult but rolled true so no complaints there.

Over booked.

staff is great but I started 5.5 hours ago and I’m not done. More like 6.5 hours . Three groups at the same time. If it moved well it would be nice.
