Fun Course for Average Golfers

Staff is great!! Course is fun to play. May not be challenging for single digit players but was fun for us. Only real problem is a couple of fairways are next to Monterey Fairgrounds so if functions taking place at Fairgrounds, 1 maybe 2 fairways closed to avoid slices and hooks into people at fairgrounds. Otherwise, no problem. Fairly easy course to walk.

Monterey muni

Basically a muni course in Monterey. Greens are nice and roll well. Very short from whites. Recommend playing blues if you are less than 15 handicap. Mats on range. Decent little chipping area.

Maybe a short course but you better be on your game with your putter.

This is a lovely short course of 18 holes that will challenge you and your putter. I played this course years ago before they redid it and let me tell you I love the changes that were made. The greens are rather large and have very many undulations so you better bring your short game and your nerves because on the wrong side of the hole and you will be 3 putting. The fairways are in great condition and there is water in play on some holes on the back nine. I booked a 4:28 pm tee time on here for $10 and finished all 18 holes before the sun went down. The marshals stay on top of pace of play so book that late tee time save a bundle of money and enjoy this little course.

Great place to improve short game

This short course is a great place to sharpen your short game. Nicely manicured greens which impressed me for a muni course makes putting fun. Some holes are lined with tall trees so be careful. First hole is challenging because a road on the right side can be busy with cars and 2 huge sycamore trees guards the green. Plenty of par 3s to give you that opportunity for a hole in one so good luck and have fun! Water in play from the tee on number 10 so stay left.
