The Club at Crazy Horse Ranch
About
The Club at Crazy Horse Ranch (previously known as Salinas Golf & Country Club) in Monterey boasts a reputation as "the friendliest club in the area." Opened in 1925, it's also known as one of the area's oldest clubs though they are loathe to label themselves as "traditional". The golf course sprawls across rolling countryside dotted with mature trees and the occasional water hazard. Originally opened as a nine-hole layout, the golf course may appear somewhat short at just over 6,200 yards from the back tees but don't underestimate its level of difficulty. It's a tight layout that demands accuracy, especially when navigating the small greens. There is plenty of variety at The Club at Crazy Horse Ranch, you may even find yourself using all the clubs in your bag. The golf course finishes with a stunning view of Salinas Valley from an elevated tee. The fairway slopes downhill to a well protected green guarded on the left with trees and on the right with bunkers.

Nice course, but some frustration
The tee boxes, fairways, greens all in very good shape. The fringes around some of the greens were absolutely perfect. Several elevation changes and beautiful views. My only complaint is lack of information. No pictures on the scorecard or at the tee box providing a layout of the hole. Yardage not clearly marked at all. Several times I wondered where to go to find the next hole, and ended up in the path of other players shots. The course itself was beautiful, in very good condition, a great value for the money. Nice bar/restaurant and friendly service. My only complaint is the layout/logistics which were confusing since it was my first time playing the course.
Great track
Although the greens were recently punched they were still decent and will be amazing when they're cured
4/2/21
Course was in good condition,well kept up but GPS on carts. Hurry and play this course before it becomes private again.
Everything was great.
I was expressed by the courses and management with the reasonable price.
Easy to Enjoy a Round Here
I have played this course numerous times in the past year and every single time I play it, I wonder why I don't play it more often. It is fair, the staff is friendly, the food and service from the restaurant are fantastic. Yes, there are plenty of courses to choose from in this area, but I leave this course with the same reminder of why I love this game so much.
Fun Morning
1st time playing the tournament course. Played the whites and it’s still a long course. Course was in great condition, pace of play was good. Played with 3 gents I met today. Great guys. Fun times.
Took my money
I set my tee time with a hot deal. Was feeling skeptical about the rate, so I called and asked if the greens were aerated. The gal I talked was rude and said they were and in good shape. I just read reviews that differ with her assessment. I wish when greens are aerated this site would inform us. Since it’s a hot deal I can’t cancel and get my money back. I’m not driving over an hour to play sanded greens. SAY GOODBYE TO $56.00!!!!!
Sand...
They should tell people that they just dumped a inch of sand on the greens when you book a tee time. No respect for your time .....
The greens were sanded. Unplayable. Never noted when I booked on Golf Now.
This course has perfect greens.
Green is fast and challenge.
It also has the true reading.
I enjoyed putting the ball on the green.
great course,they take good care of it
Greens always roll true here,course is always in good condition and semi challenging.It does get alot of goofballs playing here and a marshall could help keep them in check so they keep pace of play moving forward and stop with the horsing around.But all in all I love the course and there garlic fries are delicious
If you're not a local, you get disrespected
Before we arrived we read the average round is 4.5 hours and we had no problem with that. It was a gorgeous day.
Upon arrival, everything looked great. We were their to enjoy our Friday afternoon. 15 minutes before our tee time a staff member approved us to let us know it may be a long round. We found that we kind. The group of local who went off before us went off as an 8some so it actually pushed our 11:50 tee time back. But we were going with it as we played with 2 strangers who also never player there. As we are playing and we approach the 8th hole, the group behind approach us and say "you better pick up the pace". We have never played there and honestly were not playing slow. We were playing at a steady pace. They called the Marshall on us. Well this Marshall approached us on the turn and apologized to us for the BS. At this point I was pretty heated and my round was mentally over. I have word at a golf course and I am always respectful. It gets better as a twosome jumped in front if us and we still did not complain. After the round was over I spoke the the staff member who approached us in the beginning and he remembered the conversation. I told him that I felt like I wasted my money. I was they to enjoy myself and not deal with that behavior. His response was.."were you golf now? I said yeah. then he said, well art least you only spent $59". I was livid and stormed out. The player that called the Marshall on us came up to my playing partner in the parking lot to say he was sorry because he had 3 straight bad holes so he was just upset. That is pathetic. he decided to ruin our day because he was acting like a child. It was a big FU to us.
Nice course
Everything was great except almost none of the other golfers wore masks off the course. I felt bad for the very nice staff.
