02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

A private 36-hole club sibling that traces back to a Seth Raynor routing and has been brought back to life by a Jackson Kahn restoration unearthing the dunescape, with a Fazio touch as well. Critics put it in the conversation with its famous Pebble-area neighbors, praising small targets, strategy over power, and a stunning seaside par 3 reached by crossing 17-Mile Drive.

Best forShot-makingSceneryBucket-list

Consistently praised

Restored sandscape and dune contouring after the Jackson Kahn work, with small greens and angle-driven strategy.
A seaside par 3 at the 14th with tees set in ancient rocks across 17-Mile Drive; bentgrass conditioning consistently called pristine.

Worth knowing

Private and quiet; access is the gate, not the golf.

Golfers recommend

Take a moment at the 14th tee; reviewers call it among the best par 3s on the Peninsula.
