About
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.

Enjoyed
Had a great time
Wish there was a cart girl on site
Good holiday weekend
Played this past Sunday early morning.
First, was surprised that an early tee time was available before 9am.
Second, The course is slowly coming back into shape with some rope off areas and bald spots still needing some TLC.
Third, pace of play was pretty good till we hit the 14th hole(par 3). It was backed up 2 groups at around 10:30a so images what it might be later in the day
Overall a pretty good day/time
First Time At This Course
The course layout was excellent and you can’t beat the price. I will definitely play here again.
Thanks, u8694297! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course layout and found it a great value. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another round!
Slow pace
Was not too happy with the pace of play. The lack of marshals moving things along makes for a negative golf experience. I do like the course, but a marshal is sorely needed. Par 3's generally reset the pace of play but on this day, We were backed up on at 7 different holes with 3 teams waiting their turn. The unnecessarily slow pace always hurts my game.
Thanks for your feedback, zero9si. We’re glad you enjoy the course but understand that pace of play is crucial. We’ll be addressing the marshal situation to improve the experience for everyone. Your input helps us make the necessary changes. We hope to see you back soon!
Thank you, Phillip, for your 5-star rating! We appreciate your support and are glad to know you're enjoying our services. Your satisfaction means a lot to us!

Diamond in the Rough
You look at the card and it says 5400+ yds from the tips. But that is deceptive! Yes, short holes everywhere but made up for by some dastardly par 3’s!! As many trees as the Amazon rainforest! Surprisingly level tee boxes. Greens that run 9ish. Enough subtle breaks to class as nefarious and slippery. I played this course when it was a 9 hole exec (back when the wheel was square). It’s turned itself into a nice little challenge of a layout! Long knocks gonna have to hit a lot of layups or get used to hitting provisionals! But PLEASE marry up twosomes! Makes no sense for two or three twosomes leading a foursome!
Thanks, enchilara! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the challenge of our course and appreciate your insights. We’re always looking to improve the experience, and your feedback about twosomes is noted. We hope to see you again soon for another round!
Kisama, thank you for taking the time to rate us. We appreciate your input and are always looking to improve. If you have specific thoughts or suggestions in the future, we’d love to hear them!
