Good Time

My wife and I came down the Monterey for the weekend to just hang out and play a round of golf. This course was in great shape. The greens were fast. The employees where very nice. Definitely would play here again.

Fun course!

Challenging for an intermediate golfer, but enjoyable if you don't mind airplanes taking off overhead. Front nine much more fun and picturesque . Golf Now rates super but $17 for a ride along is just plain gouging.

Good Value for the Money

This is a short but fun course. We teed off at 12:20 and finished in 3 hours. Course was in good shape although the greens were recently sanded they all rolled true.

Nice!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our round at Monterey Pines. We were a twosome behind a very slow foursome but the weather was PERFECT and we very much enjoyed playing a shorter course. Short but with plenty of challenge, at least for us. We will DEFINITELY play this course again when we are in the Monterey area!

Monterey Pines

A great course to play if you want to feel like a pro. a shorter course that enables you to be able to reach the greens in regulation, with good shots. And then again, has challenges that prevents you from doing so. Had a career best 78 there, and also have shot 92 .
Course is in great shape and the staff is super friendly. Good driving range, clubhouse/pro shop and dining area.

GREAT for military sine it is a Navy course and they provide super military discounts. Even as a civilian, a great value!!

Nice course but short

The course was like a muni course but very short,there were a couple interesting holes but nothing that would possibly make me want to drive that far again for.If it was your backyard course sure it would be ok to play to practice on,in good condition,greens ran fairly well and the carts do have GPS.It is right next to a jet runway and also on the other side the fairgrounds so noise could be an issue for some...I don't really care though I listen to music when I play.

Fun little track

This is a fun track to play, in nice shape too, the greens roll true and offer a bit of challenge. The pace is a bit slow, but hey, your golfing so it's all good.

Tell us when greens are punched

There was no notification on golf now or at Monterey Pines that all the greens had been recently punched. I'll know to ask in future, but some notice would be appreciated after driving an hour each way to find lousy putting surface.

Love Love this course

From the minute you enter the pro-shop to check-in the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. It is obvious they take great pride in the course. We asked one of the grounds keeper about some construction going on around the course and he gladly explained the changes being made. I would go back there anytime, and I will.
