Carmel Valley Ranch Golf Course was designed by Pete Dye and opened in 1981. Located in Carmel Valley at the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountains, Carmel Valley Ranch offers a wonderful golf adventure. Located on over 400 acres of sun drenched valley terrain, this is the only course on the Monterey Peninsula designed by Pete Dye. Topographically, this layout is very challenging with many raised and sunken greens through the hills, making club selection crucial. The front nine is positioned along the beautiful Carmel River featuring very tight fairways and tricky greens. The back nine is situated 350 feet above the valley floor among the knolls of the national forest, offering some of the most breathtaking elevated tee shots in all of Monterey. The vistas on the tee box of #11 offer picturesque panoramas of the valley below. Positioned in the midst of the Santa Lucia Mountains, you are bound to see some wildlife, with quail, turkeys, rabbits and foxes abound. Water comes into play on several holes and well-guarded multi-tiered greens force you to stay on top of your game to score well. Destinations Magazine ranked Carmel Valley Ranch Golf Course as one of the 25 most challenging courses in the entire state of California. A recent renovation has improved the conditioning and playability of this par-70, Pete Dye course.

This 18-hole championship golf course was ranked by Golf Magazine as one of "Monterey's must-plays." Located just a few minutes east of Carmel-by-the-Sea, you can find a warm refuge, away from the brisk coastline. In a survey conducted by their readers, Travel and Leisure Magazine rated the Carmel Valley Ranch as one of the Best Golf Courses in the World.

"Just wanted to thank you for organizing our Pebble Beach trip. My son and I got home to Ohio late on 8/6. We had a wonderful time at the resort and on the courses. So beautiful! Garden View room was perfect for us as were both courses. One more item off my bucket list. Thanks again from both of us."

"Played Spyglass Hill and Pebble Beach - amazing courses and first rate service and accommodation. Thank you!"

Brian Carrick  ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
"Monterey Peninsula Golf was such a pleasure to work with. They were very helpful when my tournament did not get the registrations we were hoping for. My group went from expecting 30+ golfers to having only 14 actually register. They worked with the facility we were playing and was still able to get us a shotgun start on four holes, range balls, closest to the pin, long drive contest and custom carts. They really made our small group feel right at home and all 14 of them had a wonderful time, including me. Thank you Monterey Peninsula Golf for a wonderful event."
