About

Holes 18
Type Municipal
Par 71
Length 5478 yards
Slope 115
Rating 65.6

Alhambra Golf Course has a player-friendly design that is ideal for beginners but also great for more experienced players who are looking for a quick but fun round. The layout is a shorter par-71 design at 5,478 yards. It may not be long but it offers plenty of other challenges. There is plenty of variety between the two vastly different nines. The front nine holes are fairly flat, parkland holes with generous fairways lined with trees. The beginning holes provide a good warm-up for Alhambra Golf Course's more difficult back nine where you'll have to use every club in your bag. The back sprawls across rolling terrain, incorporating elevation changes ranging from subtle to dramatic. There are also more strategically placed bunkers on the back nine. Alhambra's 16th is the signature hole. This tricky par 5 begins with an intimidating tee shot over water in order to reach the fairway.

Slow pace of play

Good course, first time playing here was short most holes were 3 wood off the tee, pace of play was so slow had to wait 10+ minutes each hole to tee off took over 5 hours and we skipped the last hole because of how long it was taking.

Great course

Perfect greens. I have played here many times and I love the layout. I would especially recommend this course for shorter hitters who are tired of hitting 3woods and long irons into par 4s.

Risky Golf

I have always enjoyed playing this course, but the last 2 times I have played, we have had near misses getting hit by errant golf shot. Then on the 4th hole we were standing on the tee box, and my friend got hit with a ball in the back. We didn't hear anybody yelling 4. We confronted the player and he claimed he yelled four, but none of us heard it. The last two times I played, we have had balls dropping within 2 feet of us. I think they need to hire a marshal for the course, because frankly, I am not really interested in playing here again due to the high risk of getting hit.

Chewed up.

Overall good coarse experience. I just got one complaint. The greens were pretty chewed up. Lots of unrepaired ball marks and mud on a lot of greens.

Good course

Friendly staff, service good when I do ask for some help, wish they maintain the brushes for the shoes thats located near the holes thru the course, they really need to maintain those as it helps to clear the gunk off the shoes instead of bringing it back to drop off of the carts, I would say at least 80% of those brushes need replacement in the last 3 times I been there same no replacement.

Rules and etiquette

The foursome in front of us had two beginners without clubs. They had to get clubs from the other twosome. This made play so slow and frustrating. The course sent out someone out to investigate. They said it was ok that the other two players didn’t have clubs. How is that ok?we finally skipped a hole to get passed them. By that time it was no fun anymore.

Overall course is great with beautiful views. There is also a lot of poop on the course since there are a ton of geese. Since there is a lot of poop, this also means there are a lot of flies throughout the course. You just need to be mindful of where you step on the course and when using your push cart, avoid the poop as well.

Great course

Been playing at this course a few times. Everything is great. Club house can use a bigger kitchen. The price of the course is reasonable and a lot of tee times on the weekends.
