About

Holes 18
Type Municipal
Par 71
Length 5466 yards
Slope 123
Rating 70.4

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.

Wow!!

We drove up from Long Beach. Long Beach course's are already showing lack of care since the last rain.

Not Alhambra! Tee boxes in great shape. Greens are perfect and Fairways complete the obvious care and maintenance. Great job goes to the maintenance crew who take pride in their job. Quite honestly, outstanding customer service all around, from the people working the Pro Shop to the waitresses and grill cook in the restaurant. Never have had a bad experience.

Poor pace

There was a five some ahead of us. The course needs to do a better job of enforcing pace.

Don't Sleep on this Course

Have played Alhambra a bunch over the last 2 months and love it. Pace of play is always great and staff is awesome. Case in point, on Sunday we had a 12:10 tee time. On the back 9, the 4 some in front of us had a fight and split up into 2 2-somes, which really slowed pace of play.

On Hole 14, there were Marshalls out on the course to investigate what was happening and pushed pace of play back up by making the 4 some join back up. Even with that, we did 18 in just under 4:10. If the group hadn't broken up, I bet we could have done it sub 4 hours easy.

Marshalls are great. Course is very fun, albeit short.

At 54.50 and with the ease of getting a tee time most days, this is going to quickly become my go to course.

Good times

Pace of play back in the day was trash, very surprising that we started on time and the pace was actually good. Got held up on couple holes but overall we had a good time. Always coo to comeback and tuneup the game before hitting a much bigger ballpark.
