Blackhorse is set on a hill in the middle of Monterey Bay. It is the sister course of a 36 hole facility which includes the Bayonet golf course. Fairways are fairly tight with randomly placed cypress trees throughout. The views of the Monterey Bay are a great treat during the round. Greens are big and roll true with an average pace. This course plays tough, long and tight.
