As you walk among mature willows and oaks, you hear the gentle whisper of the Carmel River. Under the steady gaze of a family of deer, you find a renewed sense of focus. In the shimmering blue and gold of lupines and poppies growing wild in the meadows, you are inspired by a simple thought. In this most natural and serene setting, you game will blossom.

Over-priced good course

Very friendly and pretty golf course. Extremely excellent landscaping, true green and very good holes.

However, this was not worth $350 for the round.

Feels more like $175 - $200

Lovely day

Had a great round! Starter sent 3 players out about 10 minutes early before I arrived. The 3 players were just teeing off when I arrived at the tee box. We teed off at scheduled time-2:20 pm, & finished about 6:00 pm (still a bit of light left). Sunny most of the round until the fog started rolling in with 4-5 holes remaining to play. Still, the round was very enjoyable.

My day out at the Quail

My cost to play was wonderfully right.
The venue, was set in a beautiful day just after
A soft night rain to appreciate the Golf Course and her grander.
The Greens were drying out I each green continue to get faster, one needed to take time to read the greens and to handle the coming disappointment when ones ball broke away at the cup?
What a great outing to be challenged by the greens and her ground team managers.
I’m looking forward to my next game at
The Quail.

Outstanding Visit

The course was amazing. I've played many courses on the peninsula, but this by far is one of my favorites. From the moment I walked in, the staff was very friendly. The pro shop worker was super nice. When I walked up, the starter was talking to me and offered to put my bag on my push cart and set me up. He got me loaded up with water, tees, scorecard, etc. and even let me head out a little early. The practice facility was in really good shape and the push cart I rented was high quality. When I headed out on the course, it was wide open. Just me out there and I really enjoyed it. The scenery was amazing and I enjoyed the layout of the course. Conditions were terrific, greens looked like they just got done aerating so they were in great shape! Thank you, Quail Lodge, I will definitely be coming back in the future!

Beautiful day

Greens are recovering from a recent punching but still a great course layout. Wait another week or two and it will be rolling again!

Carmel Valley at it’s best

Good practice facility, but be careful at the range as cars can be hit with arrant shots. Clubhouse/Edgars restaurant is 5 stars so get lunch on the deck outside and be sure to order the clam chowder! The course conditions are beyond believable. The superintendent and staff are masters at detail and its hard to find anything to critique, its that good. The bunkers sand is soft on top and firm under, so you almost want to get in a few just to try them out. The bunker lips are immaculate with high grass edging giving the appearance you are deeper then you really are. Fairways are carpets of perfection. Rough is not too deep and soft and full everywhere and I mean everywhere almost treated as just a higher cut fairway its that full and lush. There are really high rough areas around the bunkers for contrast which is challenge to get out. The greens are on the simpler flat style with very subtle breaks, so you are always guessing if its straight or just a slight hidden break and this makes them harder to read I think, I found that taking out a break I holed more. The conditions are spectacular if theres a ball mark its yours. They have soft holds for aggressive approaches. Tee boxes are like the fairways, that good. Perfect squared-off boxes and lots of them. Dont let the par 71 make you feel like you got jipped, there are 2 par 3s (5 and 12) that are worth it. Be sure to get some popcorn and save some for the ducks.
