Pacific Grove Golf Links
About
Originally designed by Chandler Egan in 1932, the first nince holes takes you through the forested areas of Pacific Grove. Egan's nine takes you through an inland terrain and reflects much of the charm of an English rural course done in the old style.
The back nine was designed by Jack Neville, the original designer of the Pebble Beach Links. It opened in 1960, and is laid out in true links design over dunesland that approaches the sea.
Over looking the course is the Point Pinos Lighthouse. Built in 1855, it is the longest continuously operating lighthouse in California. It is a historical sentinel and picturesque landmark of the golf course.
A scenic tour of the dramatic coastline provides views of Lover's Point, Point Pinos, Crespi Pond and the natural dunesland at Asilomar. You will be enchanted by the abundance of natural wonders such as the plentiful Pacific Blacktail Deer, seals, sea lions, sea otters, pelicans and gulls.

Love it!
PG is a great play for my wife and I together. She is still in the beginning stages of golf but is far enough along to be able to play and enjoy this gem of a course. While I’ve been playing years, it still offers challenges for shot making playing in wind at times, moving ball left to right along with some risk and reward holes. We always play here when in town, 4-5 times a year. Love it!
Wonderful experience
Maintenance
The course could have been better maintained. The greens were very plush but didn't seem to have been mowed the day I played, They were very bumpy from bare spots on most every green. The lack of cart paths was a bit unprofessional. Many of the fairways were bare of grass and made like hitting from the rough in some cases. The pro shop did not have anything to drink, the grill and concession stand were closed, no cart service and therefore, no was to even get a drink of water for the entire round. No yardage markers. Beautiful scenery on the back 9 but that shouldn't be the only thing to offer for the price. You can do better. This will not get you much return business. I can play several courses much closer to home, in much better condition, better service, and for the same price. May sound a bit harsh but I did enjoy the course, it could just use some TLC and either keep the concession stand open or have a cart running around to allow players to at least get something to drink. 4 hours with no water is bad.
Great place
Love this place and love the fact green fees darn near same when I played as I kid in the 90’s. One of the best tracks in the world for the price !
I could go full Karen
The list of things that went wrong are to long and not worth going full karen on. The summary, front 9 have horrible conditions, back 9 will be the most beautiful holes you ve played, but the course management is non existent. I quit at hole 13 after 4 hours. It was the worst golf experience I ve had which is really disappointing because that back nine is like no other.
Give it a go.
I’ve always heard about the “poor man’s Pebble Beach” , so I wanted to check it out and compare it to Pebble (which I played last July).
$60.00 was a fair price for the experience. The layout was simple, greens were slow , bumpy, and play was slow, but the back 9 with the ocean views was worth the other negatives.
Give it a go if you have the time.
Poor mans Pebble
Beautiful course. Weather was perfect till the back nine naturally…winds at 20
Beautiful sights
Probably my favorite course on this planet we call earth !!! Has incredible views with challenging pin placement, along with a lot smiles from the crew. Would recommend to any and all golfers out there. Play ball !!!
Pacific Grove Golf Links
We’ve played this course many times, and were very disappointed with the course conditions. The front 9 fairways were thin (terrible). The back nine fairways were better. Pace of play was good.
Great Course
Greet by the staff and they answered all our questions since it was our first time. The course was in great condition. Pace of play was consistent and if it did slow up, what better place to enjoy the views and cool weather!!!! We will definitely play again.
Excellent value
This was our first time playing PG Golf Links and we will definitely be back. Friendly staff, beautiful course with scenic ocean views.
