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.

crazy horse just ok
Well, have razy horse a try. Keep in mind my group plays about 3 times a month and makes a point to play various courses and we use Golfnow and Golf18Network for best rates. Tee boxes were fair, fairways good, greens small but good. Facilities fair due to club house shut for remodel, parkting lot tiny, golf carts nice but GPS would be nice on this tight course.
Overall good course, but you can play Cinnabar Hills, Monterey pines, Eagle Ridge, Ridgemark, San Juan Oaks, Coyote Creek for the same price or less.
Nice course
Good fair course with several challenging holes and good views. Everything's nice foods good and all the pro shop guys are cool. Lots of construction going on currently.
Recently went public
Was Salinas CC, now public. Very enjoyable hilly layout. Only 6106 from the tips but a 130 slope. Beautiful vistas. Surrounded by strawberry farms. Green were excellent. Small, fast, firm and true.
Great bang for the buck.
Currently updating pro shop and bar/dining room.
I did not have any meals there.
Course conditions
I had a great experience. The course conditions were fantastic. The fairways, tees, and greens were all green and lush. I was expecting brown conditions a la the U.S. Open but was greeted with verdant green.
Great hide away
Great course had fun day .
Had good wether , I'll will be
Back !
Still green with dry hills around
Fun course to play .I enjoyed the challenge and the greens were fair.
Bang for the buck!
A very enjoyable golfing experience. New name under new ownership and a lot of positive facility changes happening. I plan on playing here many times in the future.
Very satisfied
We drove two hours to play this Fleming jewel.
Worth the ride ..Course is amazing, the small greens were in great shape, challinging, but fair and true.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
Wish it wasn't so far away
A cozy & neat course
well maintained short course, intersting layout on rolling hill, decent par 5 holes, varity layout of par 4s, all par 3 are different, anyhow, each hole has is unique. a short course, but somewhat challenge.
This course is a fine old-time country club course, with a friendly staff .
I have played this course 4 times and will play it again. It is thoroughly enjoyable.
foremichael
Playing here is always a good time. Pace of play is good, and the course is in great shape. Greens are fast and great to putt on. Staff is very friendly. Definitely going to make it back.
Strawberry Hill
Enjoyed the layout of the course. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Folks in the clubhouse were friendly and didn't act like we were a burden as some Private course will do. Price with Golfnow was very good. Would try this course again if in the area.
Great afternoon of golf
I have lived in Salinas for 30+ years and never played this course before... Had a thoroughly enjoyable day and I will play here again soon. Staff very friendly and informative. Course conditions were excellent.
beautiful layout!
The course was in great shape, lush, green and well watered.
Nice course, friendly staff
This is the second time I've played this course. I started with a friend and then a member joined us on the tenth hole. His knowledge of the course was helpful and he was very friendly.
Can't wait to come back
Have lived in Monterey area for last 3 years, played all the courses - finally played here. Unfortunately, they just punched and sanded the greens. I played with a member as well as another golfer who plays here alot. Although the greens were slow and sandy, I could tell in a couple weeks - they will be great. Used all clubs in the bag, played in 3.5 hours. Friendly staff.
Great puting
Found the staff to be extremely friendly. The course is in great shape...not for the beginning golfer. Look forward to playing it again.
Great holes to challenge the golfer
When we arrived, the entire course was without power due to a tree falling on power lines. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything to start our round. Unfortunately the greens had been sanded and I DO mean sanded. Some of them had at least one inch of sand on them. Guess that is something that has to be done but it did not make the round fun. Not sure if we will go back and we live three miles away.
Love this place..usually
Usually a great place but greens were being aerated as we arrived. Bit misleading to say they have been aerated recently when it's actually happening as you arrive. Staff is hit and miss. I run into the most friendly workers to straight snobs. Just know that if you buy with GolfNow, you will be treated as a hack or lesser than on arrival. Besides that, course is great, members are great, and the food is excellent!
SGCC is well worth it.
Great course! Affordable, and well taken care of. Greens are small and fast.
