Given the natural contours of the landscape and the hazards, this can be a challenging course. If you have good control over your clubs (both long and short), you will have no problem. If you have challenges getting (and staying) on the fairway, be prepared to lose some balls! This is a good course to hone your skills!

The course is laid out well; it is on the ocean side. This means that the wind can kick up and crank up the challenging factor by a few notches! We really enjoyed it. While the fairways are fairly straightforward, the sloping and wind can make it more difficult; in a good way.

While the fairways appear wide and long, they are challenging. The wind can kick up and send your ball into the tree lines. The greens are difficult. But all said, this is one of my favorite Monterey courses, as it keeps you on your toes!

This is definitely one of my favorite Monterey courses! I live in San Francisco and golf in Monterey 3-4 times a year (staying 3 - 5 days each time). This is one of my go-to courses. The staff is awesome and high on customer support. The real jewel, however, is the course itself. It is well laid out and well maintained. It is challenging enough, but not intimidating.

This is a good course to walk and play. While it is generally flat with fairly straightforward fairways, they are often tree-lined and challenging. Often, there is a cross wind that can make play even more challenging, and there are a few water hazards along the way.
The pace of play is very good.

This is a flat course that is easy to walk. The tree-lined fairways are nice and long, not too many bunkers, This is a deceptively challenging course! With the wide and relatively flat fairways, it looks quite easy. Has nice challenges along the way.

This course has a good layout, providing enough challenges. Yet It is relatively flat, so easy to walk. The fairways are fairly wide and long, giving you a number of chances to let your driver rip! The downside is that the fairways could be in better shape, but given that it’s a muni with a reasonable price, one can’t expect too much! There used to be a lot of daisies, but thankfully those have been largely cleaned up!

Nice layout, holes in back 9 go along the beach. Extremely walkable course. Challenging. The conditions aren’t great, Muni course. It is great to hone your skills.

This is a great course to walk: flat wide open and pleasant. While it is prone to wind (like all Bay Area courses), it it not crippling. As much as it looks like a fairly flat and straightforward course, it has its share of challenges. The greens can be tricky! I really enjoy coming here.

Eagle Vines is a course favorite for our foursome! This is an extremely well-maintained course, with a nice layout that includes grapevines. It is challenging and fun to play. The pace of play was as expected for a Wednesday morning. We never had to wait to tee off. We were able to keep the group in front of us in sight, as the group behind us also paced us approximately an entire hole behind (therefore, they didn't wait for us either!). The greens were in excellent condition and the tee boxes were relatively clean.

The course is flat and easy to walk. Fairways are fairly wide and clear. The course is fairly well maintained with clean fairways. The greens are a bit bumpy, but generally run pretty well and offer a challenge. We enjoy coming here for a challenging (but not frustrating) round that is very walkable!

Easy layout. More challenging than it appears. Trees and rough give it an unexpected edge. Long fairways and good greens.
