Pebble Beach rival

The course is always in pristine condition..not a blade of grass out of place..both of these courses are as good as Pebble..at 1/10th the cost...the staff understands customer service..and they are good at it..the crew on the course keeps the bunkers in great shape...fairways are very tight..rough is minimal..the greens will be what gets you...hard and fast...I always enjoy myself at this course..thanks

wetness and bunkers

I found the overall condition of this course to be in great shape..greens are very smooth..no ball marks or divots in the green...2 issues I would like to see addressed are
1 bunkers
2 over watering
the bunkers are like hitting from the parking lot..sand is hard and packed down..extremely hard to get a club under the ball..
some fairways are so wet..even walking brings up puddles..the over watering contributes to the bunker problem, in my opinion..but I really like this course..staff appears to want you there playing..

FUN COURSE. BUT......

this was a fun course indeed...but several holes have blind landing areas...if you stray from middle you might loose your ball..several real fun holes... several "trick" holes...for a first time player of this course,.there were many holes where I had no idea where to land the ball.. Overall, I enjoyed this course...but playing with a local is a must..I

too expensive

I used to play here on a regular basis..via golfnow.com...but prices have been raised so that this course has become one that I only play once every month or so...

used to be a great course...what happened?

Pajaro used to be a gem and a value that was very high on a lot of my friends list..however, recently, the greens got some disease and they were terrible...the owner took steps to fix the greens and made some changes...but now has raised prices..I feel this course is not in good enough shaped to be charging $50...the owner is making his patrons pay for his mistake..several media outlets report how many people are getting out of the game due to high prices of tee times and equipment..I would not recommend this course to anyone..in fact, I steer them to other area courses..

overall enjoyed this course

the course was in good condition..greens were very good...if you have never played this course it can be difficult as there are several holes where the flag is not visible ,,luickily I played with a local and he helped me navigate some of the doglegs...before my round I was searching for the range ball dispenser..and was scolded for going somewhere I was not supposed to be..he asked," can I help you?" looking for some range balls...I said..well we rope that area off so no one will go in there..so your range balls are probably not in there.." his reply ..then gave directions...didn't seem like he enjoyed his job..or thought his talents were above a lowly range ball dude..

super value and the best greens around

I was greeted by a staff member almost as I stepped on the property...inside the proshop another very friendly employee, welcomed me to the course.. let me tell you...these are the best greens , by far, than any I have encountered around this area for public courses..usually the course want sto keep up the pace of play and do not make greens too fast...but these were like greased lightning...the gent in the proshop suggested I practice on the greens for a few minutes..he said that with a chuckle..course is a little short..but still I had alot of fun..scored well...for me..78..great place to play and have some fun...
