They call this the Poor Man's Pebble Beach and the back nine lives up to the expectation. The views were just short of spectacular. However, the layout was tight and somewhat confusing to the first time guest. A course layout on the scorecard would have been nice. The tight layout felt like squeezing a size 11 foot into a 9-1/2 shoe. That tightness led to way too many OB stakes inside the course boundaries. Other than those minor negatives, I would highly recommend this course to locals as well as visitors to the Monterey Peninsula. Playing Pebble, Spyglass, or Spanish Bay are real thrills (and you have to do them once), but Pacific Grove Muni will give a great experience at a bargain price.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
