Quail Lodge & Golf Club

Lived here over 8 years, finally played Quail today. With the exception of a few fairways that were in process of being punched, course was in great shape. The greens are some of the best on the peninsula, fast and smooth. Played in under 4 hours, great day.

Excellent course with beautiful holes and scenic views everywhere. Greens are very good speed wise as well as smooth. A few areas of the fairways were punched but not a problem. Very enjoyable and friendly staff too!

After playing all the big name courses in the area,

Quail Lodge was a breath of fresh air!

No pressure to play fast !

Great layout !

One fifth of the price!

Friendly staff !

Thoroughly recommend the experience!!

This couse and staff continues to provide an outstanding golf experience and value. The condition of course and friendliness of everyone makes this a winner.

I wasn't aware until arrival that the greens were recently airated. they were pretty good for the most part, but very slow and soft.

Course was in great condition! Staffs were super friendly.

Everything was wonderful. Especially fairway was really good. But, carts are not allowed into the fairway due to the recent continuous rain.

Very well kept course with superble dedign. However, didn’t get course layout info. The golf car doesn’t have GPS. Took many good pictures while laying. A memarble round of golf with nice weather.

I'd feel more comfortable giving 4.5 stars, but it's definitely closer to 5 than to 4.

Staff was super friendly and great. Course is in terrific shape - fairways are great, greens were very soft, but pretty quick, traps were near perfect. Some of the holes were very memorable - I particularly liked both 4 and 5, an uphill par 4 with an elevated green and a long par 3 with water on the right.

The course is a moderately easy resort-style course that happens to be surrounded by beautiful scenery. Being in Carmel Valley, there's this tranquility on the golf course with mountains to one side and the ocean on the other. You can't see the ocean at all from the course though. I think the scenery is better than the actual course, but the golf layout is nice enough to still justify 5 stars. It has similar scenery to its neighbor, Carmel Valley Ranch, and I think this is the better course.

Only other downside is that the range is only about 200 yards. There weren't any irons only signs, but I certainly didn't feel comfortable taking driver there.

Looking forward to returning.

Quail is always a great course with superb conditions. Greens are spacious with nothing too drastic regarding undulations. They were rolling super fast today. Well struck balls would hold but anything coming out of the rough would run like crazy.

Fairways are about as close to perfect as you'll get. Fairways are also pretty wide making it easy to rack up the FIR stat. It also helps pace of play. Tee boxes are level, lush and divot free. Sand traps have excellent sand in them.

Course was packed today and was cart path only making the POP slower than normal.

Track is slightly above average with top notch conditions all around. The restaurant

/bar has outdoor seating that looks onto the driving range and 9th green. A local secret is the Thursday night prime rib! Staff at the resort and course are always super friendly.

Course is 90% flat so it's easy to walk as most transfers are pretty short.

If I had a complaint it would be the need for more restrooms on the course and a beverage/snack cart.

This is a great golf course. Some of the holes remind me of playing in Guam. Lots of trees, plush fairways and difficult greens.

If you are in the Monterey area I would definitely play this course if you can afford it.
