This is a top class course in California. Unfortunately we got rained out only got truly 7 holes in before the rain soaked the course, but you can’t blame the course for the weather. This place was perfectly manicured and a fun “forest” style course on the Monterey peninsula. I look forward to coming back for another visit when the weather is more cooperative.

What an absolute gem! Ive always heard good things but this was something special. I haven't had chills on a golf course like this since Bandon. The course set up and conditions were perfect. Love the little tee markers, such a nice touch. No excuse to not come if you're and NCGA members, but its worth the price and the drive (not local). Check the yardage before selecting the tee box for yourself.

Challenging course with excellent conditions, definitely one of the most well kept courses I’ve ever played. However, we had an odd/uncomfortable interaction with the woman working the halfway house. The food/drink menu has no prices listed, and when I asked how much one of the sandwiches cost she replied “If you have to ask you can’t afford it”……. I then gave her a look of shock/awkwardness when I realized she wasn’t joking. Then she replies with “No one around here cares or asks how much things cost” then shrugs as if it was a ridiculous question for me to even ask…. Lady it’s a sandwich! Pretty distasteful and disrespectful comment to make to a patron trying to enjoy their day, especially to a person of color. Sad that I probably wouldn’t return just based on that interaction. Do better please.

I recently had the pleasure of playing at Poppy Hills Golf Course, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! The course layout is stunning, with beautiful views and challenging holes that kept me engaged throughout my round. The greens were in excellent condition, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. One of the highlights was the natural beauty surrounding the course, including the majestic trees and rolling hills. The clubhouse is also well-equipped, offering a cozy atmosphere to unwind after a game. Whether you're a seasoned golfer or a beginner, Poppy Hills is a must-visit. I can't wait to return for another round!

This course is a great value for NCGA members and very well maintained. The pro shop/ clubhouse are nice, as are the range and practice green. The greens are challenging but the course layout isn't as difficult as other Pebble Beach courses liked Spyglass or Pebble Beach. Definitely worth playing alongside all the other great local courses!
