Cypress Point Club Review

Eat in one of these restaurants to really get the best views - and maybe the best food - in the whole area!

Anyone can enjoy a burger and fries, a delectable salad (mine had Dungeness crab on it) or more choices that all looked beautifully prepared AND sit within feet of the 18th hole and the water. Carmel and Monterey and Pacific Grove eateries seem to cater to tourists; the food and service are always merely fine, so eating at Stillwater or The Tap room with a front row seat of the final hole, terrific service and truly tasty food is a no-brainer.

Lucky to have played one of the great courses in the world. Wonderful service and great caddies.

I used to Caddy at Pebble Beach, Cypress Point, Spyglass Hill and Spanish Bay for decades.
Without question in my book Cypress Point is the best golfing experience in the World. It has it all, beautiful, well designed, perfect condition with a great greens crew, all on the best property a golf course could be on.
It is a great sister course to Augusta National and The Olympic club. Maybe not progressive as some would like, and stuck in a time capsule, but I hope it never changes. It is what golf was meant to be.
Some of my fondest memories are on that course.

Great place, beautiful views. Enjoy the nature and fresh air.

Astoundingly beautiful and challenging golf course.
The pro shop staff were very nice to me, not condescending in the least, even though I was a guest. And although I am not a member, the caddies treated me with the same respect as a member. All the way down to telling me, after I put driver on 16 on the green into a brisk (!) breeze, that I'm as dumb as a small rock. (They were right.)
All things considered, and I have been fortunate to have played most of the great courses in the world, this was probably my greatest golf experience yet.

We did the 17 mile Dr during our trip to Monterey/Pacific Grove and it was the best part of the trip. You can't miss this if you come here!

Gorgeous place, beautiful views, calming and relaxing. Wonderful place to enjoy nature and views, beach, 17 spots, trees, fresh air, and so much to do.

I really loooooove this place, this place like part of haven Alister MacKenzie & Robert Hunter (1929) / Jeff Markow (2004)

Glamorous Cypress Point, Alister Mackenzie s masterpiece woven through cypress, sand dunes and jagged coastline, wasn t always the darling of America s 100 Greatest. Golf Digest demoted it to the Fifth Ten back in the early 1970s, saying, It s not surprising that good players might find Cypress Point wanting: it has several easy holes and a weak finisher. Our panel has since changed its collective opinion. In the 2000s, member Sandy Tatum, the former USGA president who christened Cypress Point as the Sistine Chapel of golf, convinced the club not to combat technology by adding new back tees, but instead make a statement by celebrating its original architecture. So Cypress remains timeless, if short, its charm helped in part by superintendent Jeff Markow, who re-established Mackenzie s unique bunkering with the help of old photographs.

It was a gorgeous day with some great friends. What a beautiful course with challenging holes. Checked it off my bucket list.
