Great Shape

We have played here for years, and the grass is in great shape. Could use a marshall to keep pace of play up, but other than that great day!

Fast greens, great weather

The greens were very fast and true with a little sand left on them. I played the sliver tees, and it was more challenging than I expected from a 117 slope. You can’t beat the weather there. Will definitely be back.

Good value in Monterey

The Monterey Pines Golf Course is not an overly challenging course, but the greens and fairways are in good shape, and it makes for an enjoyable round. You can always play the back tees to make this a bit more challenging. For the average golfer - this is a very nice course - playable, affordable, and in good condition.

Hidden Gem

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.

Great Course, Great Staff

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.

First Time Playing

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.
