17-Mile Drive Info
 

Just wondering if anyone out there knew if there were specific times that the 17-Mile drive in Monterey, CA is open for travelers. Thanks for the info.

Not sure about hours. Probably fairly liberal, as the Pebble Beach Lodge folks (Stillwater Bar & Grill; Club XIX, etc.) like the money. If you do the drive, hang onto your ticket. If you spend over $25 or so for food, you get a refund on the cost of the drive. <BR><BR>Us tourists did it, enjoyed it, and recommend it.

We did the drive in February and it was very rainy and foggy-couldn't see that much. I have been there in September and it was gorgeous.Happy travels!

Supposedly if you make reservations for lunch or dinner at the Lodge, your entrance fee will be waived.<BR>Whether you actually eat there or not is up to you.

Brian above is correct. Get reservations at Roy's at Spanish Bay anyway. Great restaurant in 5 star resort and the $8.00 entrance is included. We live in Pacific Grove near the gate so know the drill.

Drove through there just after sundown & it was still open.

Don't know of any specific hours. I guess it depends on the time of year. I would assume that it closes after sundown.

Go to Roy's before sunset, sit outside by the fireplace with a drink and watch the bagpiper come across the golf course.
