I got 2 on that list. Pebble and Spyglass Hill.


How much did Pebble cost to play? Do you have to know someone to be able to get on or is it public? Ive always wanted to gift a round to my dad and I for Fathers Day or something like it.

Well.. Someone paid for me to play both. But with caddy and tip and green fee, it was about $600 per man. Overpriced but an unforgettable experience. It was a perfect day too.

They are open to the public, but usually you have to stay at one of the hotels on the grounds to get a tee time. If not you can only get a 24 hour advance tee time if they have the availability. I called them like crazy and finally talked one of the people to hook me up with a 1 month in advance time. Try that.

Spyglass is half that. Like someone else said, it's by far the toughest course I've ever played. Plus the wind was blowing about 40mph. The starter said on that day that if we played the tips where the pros play, it was playing about 8500 yards..

Pebble Beach is $500 green fee with a mandatory two night stay at the CC

So you're looking at $1500 + just for golf and room

You sure about that? Website has a non-resort guest fee which is $495 + cart fee, where as the resort guess fee is $495 including cart.

Well now the fine print says it does require a 2 night stay (3 night stay during the peak season). But not sure what the non-resort guest fee is for then.

I played golf with an Ex-LSU football player out at Carter last week. He said this is what they made them do to play it.

Little steep but it is Pebble
