Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course
 
Just looking for information on the above golf course. Will be in Monterey 7/4-7/8 and husband and daughter are hoping to play Pebble Beach and we heard PC Municipal is a pretty nice course for the money, back 9 being very picturesque. Any help appreciated.

Although it's been quite a few years since we played it, I would say, yes, it's excellent compared to most muni courses.<BR>We played early morn and had to stop a few times to let some 'resident' deer wander across.<BR>I used the excellent internet search engine called 'Google' at: www.google.com and found some current info...prices and other basic info at the PG city website. Here's that web address:<BR><BR>http://www2.ci.pacific-grove.ca.us/golf.html<BR><BR>Hopefully, Cheryl, you'll get a response with more recent reviews of the course itself.

Cheryl, my husband and I played at Pacific Grove muni a couple of times last year. It is beautiful, particularly back 9. Several holes are facing the ocean. It is rather a short course, but many obstacles make it difficult in back 9. I believe it costs about $35, a bargain in the area! Yes, we saw a few deers.<BR><BR>We spent one week in Monterey, primarily to play golf. There are several nice courses in the area without paying big, big bucks. For example, I liked Blackhorce.<BR><BR>If you have any other questions, let me know. <BR><BR>

I am also interested in this course. Does anyone know if they rent clubs? Thanks.

My husband and I played the course last December. It's a real bargain - $35 as I recall. We checked on whether they rented clubs - $40 per person (they were either Pings or Calloways) and wound up bringing our own. The course is known as the "Poor Man's Pebble Beach.

Clubs more than the golf? Ouch! Thanks for the info.

Check to see if there's a Roger Dunn's or some other golf store in the area. They might have golf clubs rentals.
