Monarch bay
Great value- senior walking $36- course conditions were good- a few wet spots but nothing too bad- great greens- smooth and
fast-played from all the way back- a
challenge for sure- will be back
Course was in great shape considering all the rain. Will look forward to playing there again.
Golf carts
Between the 11th green & the 12th tee box, the golf carts stopped running .. I was able to get mine running and to continue playing .. This also happened between the 12th green & the 13th tee box .. Other golfers experienced the same issues .. I brought this up to the front desk in the club house ...
Pace of play
Pace of play was a little slow ..Staff is AWESOME! Course was beautiful ...
Rundown course
Check in - they don’t want me there - showed no care. It was like my $90 was nothing - just another golfer….
Range - totally run down. Entire landing area is dirt. Each range stall has old hitting mat and no rubber tee to hit driver. Typical for an ownership group that could care less about “experience” or value to cost.
Course - all tee boxes / all of them no exageration wasn’t flat. These tee boxes have never been redone since being built. All have been taken over by crabgrass and the greeskeeping staff seems to think this is how they should be kept.
Fairways were much the same as the tee boxes. Weedy and many areas of swamp with broken irrigation.
Greens were okay - probably the best part of this D- course.
Speed / pace of play. Teed off at 9am on a Sunday. 5 hr round. No Marshall keeping pace.
On course amenities - no beers of food offered on course. With all of the waiting they could have at least offered me a $10 beer to buy.
Net/Net - this is a hard pass moving forward. A true D- Beter option is Corica Park cheaper and much much better course and experience very close by.
Great views & Great condition
The course was an absolute gem to play. My brother and I had a phenomenal time! There were great views of the bay and even a few foxes running around. Atmosphere was 10/10. Pro shop guys were friendly and made me laugh. The only thing was missing was the cart girl. But La Piñata was right around the corner for a nice after round dinner. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Good Value for the price
Nice layout and greens were good, which is always first and foremost. Staff could have been friendlier. They seemed bored with their job. Always slow no matter where you play in the Bay Area. This was no exception.
Fairways are mostly Ok except some in under repair.Greens in good shape.
Overall it’s a good enough one to play.
Slow pace and bad behavior of players
The course is in decent condition, except the driving range which nearly has no grass. Pace is very slow, it took more than 5 hours to finish the round. I never experienced the behavior from some players on the course. The guys in front of us played in sandals!! Then the guy forgot his sandals on one of the tee boxes and demanded the staff to get his ‘shoes’. At the end of the round the guy was completely drunken and used his driver to hit balls into the bay.
