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.

Another fun day at Alhambra GC

We play here every week. Sometimes the course can be a little wet in some areas, but overall conditions are usually pretty good.

Staff is excellent. Mateo is always very efficient and accommodating. Even if we aren't playing our best golf, it's always fun to be at Alhambra GC where we are treated so nice.

Thanks Mateo and Fernando!

Good Small Course

Great midsize course. Allows you to use every club in your bag. Easy holes have a little something whether it be a narrow window, gullies, or just trees in the way. Greens are decent and don't always play as read. Only big complaint is bunkers need work.

Pace of play

For this course being so short it took us 5 and a half hours. They don’t space out the tee times. I even saw a fivesome. Probably won’t play here for a while until this is addressed. They do have a great driving range.

Temporary tee boxes

For the past 2 weeks they have temporary tee boxes. Everyone basically hits from Reds distance. They aren't even real tee boxes, they just killed the grass in certain areas and have you hit form there. They are in horrible condition. Lots of standing water in certain areas creating mud. Grass in the 2nd and 3rd cuts are cut very uneven making very tough lies. Greens have gotten a little better from before, but still have dirt areas. Overall the course is not playing well. I would wait until it gets better.
