One of my favorite courses to play

I always look forward to playing Monterey Pines. The course is well laid out and provides a number of challenging holes in the hills above Monterey bay. It is probably the best value in town. I got a "hole in one" there a while ago on hole #13.

Great Course

The best and most well kept course in Monterey area for less than $70. Probably the only course. But it’s one of my favorite courses.

Nice track

The greens had been recently punched within the previous two weeks maybe, so I would like to play it again to have a better idea of the condition of the greens.

This muni looked like a country club

Looking for a new affordable course to play near Monterey. Heard good things about the place. Impressed as soon as I arrived on property. Late afternoon tee time. Guy in the pro shop seemed like kind of a dich-head. Course conditions and setup were amazing. Fun layout decent diversity between golf holes. Course uncrowded so pace of play was great. Guy at the cart barn seemed way more chill and personable. Amazing public course.

Course is in good condition and a good value. The geese are retuning to the course so there’s several areas with poop. Got it on my clubs and wheels of my push cart (gross). Very friendly staff. Amenities are average but clean and well kept.
