Monterey Peninsula Country Club is a premiere 36 hole facility that provides its membership with several different grass types, different architecture styles set along the Pacific Ocean. The Dunes Course was constructed in 1925 by Seth Raynor with several tweaks throughout the years. Most recently, Jackson-Kahn restored the property in 2015 to its present state. Dunes course is primarily Ryegrass with Pure Distinction Bentgrass on our greens.
The Shore was built in 1965 by Richard Baldock and Jack Neville. In 2003, Michael Stranz was hired to redesign the course to its present layout and design.
