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.

Very underrated

For the price, I got so many experiences in a course. Staff exceptionally friendly.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience.

First time at Pacific Grove!

Beautiful course! At times it was a challenge to navigate the hole we were playing due to the fairways being side by side. Having said that I only lost one ball!

Municipal and resort feel layout.

Ladies do not be afraid to play from the whites. The difference is less than 280 yards. The front is a basic municipal layout. The back is like you are playing a different course.

Playable fun

Sporty, at under 6000 yards from the tips, the routing of the front offers challenges from overhanging cypress and the abundant deer, while the back goes old school with it’s links style dunes curving along the Pacific Ocean. A joy to try while passing through and an easy walk. On the back nine, choose brains over brawn, hitting where you can see the grass, as the sand is soft and the grasses grab balls.

Always love this course

I have been going to this course for almost 20 years. This is my first time writing a review as I think it needs to be done. This course is one of the best quality per dollar courses in Northern California. The greens are in great shape. the fairways clean and taken care of. The back 9 is so much fun and makes you love the game.

My only bone to pick is the tee boxes are a little sandy and hard packed. I assume it is because of the lack of natural rain this year and they are trying to regrow the boxes. Otherwise, they are in good shape.
