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.

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.
This course was in excellent condition.
Very enjoyable to play, we will be coming back in the near future.
My new favorite course
I have played here several times now. The staff is the friendliest I have ever met and knew me by name after 2 visits. The course is lush and green, fairways moderately wide, and greens are very small. Although not that long in yards, the course plays as a fairly difficult course. I like the elevation changes and views from the highest points. The greens play fast and have subtle breaks but the ball rolls true. There are tree and water hazards to kep your game sharp. It doesn't get any better than this.
Very Nice Course!
A very nice course! well-maintained with excellent greens - small and challenge. The pace of play was fast and the staff was very friendly.
Excellent course...always kept in great condition
I've played this course 10 times or so....and it always is in great condition. Staff is always very friendly. This is a country club that started with Golf Now a year ago or so...so you get to play a real country club without the exorbitant membership fees. The greens are always very fast and tricky...be sure to practice putting first to get the speed down. Sand traps are the best in the area...always nice sand in them. And great practice area and great country club food!
well maintained course
Well maintained course, good value to play in a wonderful day.
I will recommend any one to play this course
Excellent choice
Great course for great price. Greens are small, fast and tough!
Great Conditions!!!!
These guys at Salinas Golf and CountryClub really take pride in their course, and it shows....
strawberry fields
a wonderful golf course in the general area of Monterey. the course has some of the most challenging greens you will find anywhere.
greens speeds are similar to murfield village
outside of Columbus ohio. very true and well conditioned greens, and fairways where you will find good lies that make you fell comfortable hitting to the small greens. lots of elevation changes especially on the front nine. anyone in that area for a visit or people who live nearby need to give this golf course a try. surrounded by strawberry fields as far as you can see.
Good condition course
Fairway and tee boxes were maintained well. Course layout was little bit confused for first timer, Overall nice course.
Awesome
Very nice course excelent conditions, the staff is very friendly
Tru Fast Greens
Short but sweet. You will use all your clubs. Thought provoking second shots, risk reward opportunities and birdies await.
