Great Budget Friendly Option
Solid par 3 centric course, great for quick trips out. Course was is good shape and I was able to walk 9 in under an hour with no one in front or behind me. Plus this course supports the First Tee of Monterey County which is a great cause
Fun Course
This is a fun little 9-hole course. I think there are 2 or 3 par 4 holes. This is a "focus on the short game" course. Bring your driver if you must.
Great beginner course
Great place to get started playing golf and for experienced golfers that only have time for 9.
Good value for the price
Nice little 9 hole course that is very quiet. It is part of the 1st Tee program so all proceeds go back to the youth program. Nice to I'm helping kids get involved in a great game that teaches them positive values to live by.
Great place to practice with irons
Ì love coming here to practice my irons greens were smooth pace was great at my time love the practice area
Only three real holes. Needs to close for clean up and redo of the course.
Disappointed, 3 holes out of the nine are closed. Holes 1-3 are closed. Great place to golf when you don’t have time for 18 holes. However, website should inform golfers that 3 holes are closed prior to the booking of a tee time. So they understand they can only play 6 holes.
Holes 1-3 were shut down due to the recent storms. They did however tell us it was all you can play for $25
Relaxing
A great way to get in a quick nine . Course is in good shape. The young people working there are terrific.
