Pasatiempo Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
This classic golf course is arguably one of the top venues in the country. Pasatiempo was certainly one of designer Alister MacKenzie's favorites. The legendary architect made his home off the par-5 sixth hole and regarded the difficult, uphill 16th as one of the best par 4s ever designed by him or anyone else. To make it even better, the golf club embarked on a two-year restoration project headed up by Tom Doak. The result was nothing less than spectacular as bunkers and greens were to returned original specifications with modern turf and drainage technology. With its great design and elevation changes, Pasatiempo Golf Club plays much longer than its yardage and will test good players. The back nine is particularly strong, perhaps as good as any in the country.

The 11th is a TOUGH par-4 with great elevation and a false fronted green. Use enough club! Photo submitted by greebs on 07/20/2020

Par-3 eighth hole Photo submitted by BrandonWebb on 08/12/2017

The par-4 14th. A great example of what makes this course special. Notice the hillocks and hummocks on the left side of the fairway. Otherwise, this would be a mundane hole, but this addition collects tee shots and makes the approach interesting. Photo submitted by BrandonWebb on 08/12/2017

Makenzie called the par-4 16th the greatest two-shotter in the world, largely due to the three-tiered green. No room for error long, short or right. Photo submitted by BrandonWebb on 08/12/2017

The par-4 seventh, an excellent example of the course's hallmark bunkering. Photo submitted by BrandonWebb on 08/12/2017

From behind the 11th green, one of the most difficult par 4s I've ever played. Requires two-to-three clubs up on approach. Photo submitted by BrandonWebb on 08/12/2017

Wow
Amazing course, amazing layout, amazing condition and stunningly amazing ocean views. Go play it!
Great Course Horrible Pace of Play
This course is highly overrated given the $400 price tag. Cart path only for starters made this long round even longer. Putting 5 pack members in front of us made it unbearable. When we complained to the pro shop at the turn, their response was “they are members”. When we complained to the marshal we were told that they were playing on pace despite our GPS saying we were 24 minutes behind pace. The course itself was in great shape. The greens were hard and fast and the bunkers were raked and groomed and very consistent. If it were not for the pace of play, the arrogant 5 pack members 2 holes behind that refused to let us play through, it would had been a great round.
Excellent course!
One of my favorite courses in California! Even with all of the rain the fairways were in excellent condition. Amazing design!
Back nine only
Back nine only, had to play it twice, due to front nine being closed down.
Paid 515.00 for two, back nine only.
Played on a wet & windy day. Standing water on fairways & many greens after the atmospheric river weather had passed through. Still enjoyed a very challenging round of golf. $40 per person for cart (with no golf bag cover for rain) was very steep adder to golf pricing
Awesome
I’ve been coming to Pasatiempo since I played junior golf in the 70’s (ok I’m an old) The course is one of my favorites in the world and never has once left me disappointed. I have recommended it to so many friends playing the Pebble Beach area and everyone of them has come back marveling at the layout and conditions. It’s not to be missed if you are in the area
Back nine only
The back nine holes were open. Front nine is closed.
WOW!
What a course. This has been on my bucket list for a while and Im glad I made it out here. What an amazing course. The greens - WOW! Its pricey for sure, but play it once - youll be hooked. I live on the other side of the country, but if Im ever back, I will be coming back!

What;'s your point? The course is undergoing a well-publicized rennovations the green complexes. This fact is hihglighted on the club's website. Regardless, you got to play the most iconic holes on the course twice at a significant discoumt to the 18-hole rate as of Spring 2023. 3 star rating? C'mon, man! We all know you were ball-in-pocket on holes No. 11 and No. 16. Forget about it! Pasatiempo is a masterpiece Why don't you come back in 2024 to play the full course after the renno is complete? Then you can pay full freight, which will probablly be $400+per man, or~$3.85/stroke in your case (not incl tax).
