Monterey Pines Golf Club

I’ve golfed at Monterey Pines many times through the years, before and after the remodel. (I went to the nearby Naval Postgraduate School and married a gal from Pacific Grove.) MP was in better condition than Del Monte and much better than Pacific Grove. The fairways, greens, and tee boxes were in superb condition. The carts had GPS(!). There was staff all over the course conducting maintenance. The clubhouse restaurant was simple but very nice and in good condition. So nice to see it being kept up to high standards.

Had heard good things about this course but was very impressed myself. Greens were fair and quick, course is in great shape!

Mark in pro shop was awesome and gave great tips about the greens prior to round.

Tom (head groundskeeper) was very nice as well.

Will def become a regular course I will play in Monterey.

Course in great condition, drinks cart came around multiple times.

Very slow pace for the front 9. Started keeps the course full.

First time playing this course and it’s in excellent shape. Grass was beautiful on the fairways, rough, and greens. Good course for beginners. Most of the holes are straightforward. The greens are fast and a bit tricky.

Pace of play was bad. We played in the afternoon and were told we were following a tournament. Ended up starting 30 mins after our tee time. 4-5 groups backed up on the first tee. The course conditions would still bring me back.

Course is in good shape and was a joy to play. Enjoyed the layout and Staff was super helpful.

Got paired with some great guys and made my day even better!! Just love the course and how well kept is !!!

Course is in great shape. Some of the best greens I've ever putted on. Can't wait to play again

First time to play MP...must say, being a new golfer with limited rounds under my belt..this was by far the best maintained course I've seen...monster tee boxes that looked like carpet...fairways that were stellar and true greens....very nice course..highly recommend

Fun and friendly. Makes you feel good about your game.

One of the nicest courses that is perfect for beginners and intermediate players. Great value, the course is well kept, can't beat the weather. It's a great way to escape the heat in Gilroy.

There definitely are positives, especially course conditions (aside from them just putting a lot of sand on tees and greens), price, walkability, and staff friendliness. For me though, this course just doesn't present enough of a challenge. I played just OK and managed to hit a lot of greens and score pretty well. That's because the greens are large and you can bounce shots on, the course is very short, and you don't get penalized much for bad shots. If you want to boost your ego, this is the course for you. If you want to test your game, not so much.

Great course for a Father’s Day Round!!! Excellent Conditions!! Just love it
