Pasadera CC, Monterey, CA

[Tim Leahy]

Played Pasadera CC (Nicklaus) in Monterey the weekend before last and really enjoyed it. The 14th hole, par 3 over a canyon with a great view was one of the best par 3's I have played in the whole state of Cali. Any body out there played here and have an opinion on it. It is open to NCGA members now and I think worth the trip.

It was ok.  I played it a few weeks ago.  There is quite a bit about it on GCA if you use the search function.

Tim,

I thiught the best thing about the place was its exquisitely designed and decorated Clubhouse.

The par three fourteenth has to be one of the most difficult par threes on the Peninsula with very little chance of a recoverey from less than a perfect shot. Death by being short into bunker up front, death by being OB if marginally over the green and not much room on the sides. Their is one par four of about five hundred yards downhill that would make a good ski run. All in all this course did not attract the lasting attention of  the  of the serious golfer on the Peninsula.
