Overview
Of course, Pebble Beach is on most golfers' bucket lists. For locals, though, it's tough to beat the $40-60 normal rate at Pacific Grove, aka The Poor Man's Pebble. Pebble's designers, Jack Neville and Chandler Egan, did the layout for Pacific Grove, too—and the back nine has a Pebble feel in terms of your sense of enjoying the intimate setting on the Monterey Peninsula. Just like everyone should experience Pebble Beach once in their life, you should play Pacific Grove, too.

“Must experience if you haven't already - may be the closest thing to an unheralded Scottish town links in America. Inexpensive muni course with boring front 9 through back yards gives way to spectacular links over oceanfront dunes on back 9. The 12th, a par 5 playing out toward the water and then curving uphill, might be the best hole on the Monterey Peninsula - certainly for the price!"

“They call it the Poor Man's Pebble Beach. Great nine holes along the Monterey coast with challenging shots making. The other nine is fairly benign muni inland holes. If in the area, fun course to play."

“Back nine is fun, the "poor man's Pebble", but the front 9 isn't good. Greens were bumpy the day I played."

“Fun course with a delightful back nine. It's a good course to set a personal scoring record while enjoying a walk along the beach."
