Course History:
Considered to be one of the best kept secrets in Southern California, Alhambra Golf Course offers a rare level of play at an incredible price. You’ll be able to play on this amazing course for less than $30 in most cases, and compared to other courses in the same area, that is definitely a steal. We haven’t come across a course this nice, or this cheap in a long time, so it was a definite treat to visit here.
The course is a bit short, coming in at just over 5200 yards, but they do have a regulation 70 par. It’s actually made up of two distinct nine hole courses, but if you choose to play both, you’ll find the experience quite fun.
What You Need to Know:
You can register your tee time by calling the number above and the course also has an online registration system. We highly recommend checking out the practice facility, which in keeping with how the course handles things, is incredibly valuable and offers some great chances to improve your game.
This is a public course, so the dress code is not as strict. We do however recommend soft spikes while you’re here. The pro shop is well stocked and we really enjoyed the grill. Considering that this is a municipal course, it completely exceeded our expectations.
Playing Hints:
This is a pretty straightforward course that is suitable for both novices and professionals. There are not a lot of hazards, but the terrain can be a bit challenging at times. There are two main water bodies, and they affect mainly the ninth and seventh holes, and slightly the second hole.
There are a few sand traps to avoid, but overall, this is a fun course to play and a great place to get in a solid practice round. Our favorite hole was the tenth hole. On this one, you’re going to want to go a little to the left on your drive in order to avoid the gigantic tree that is smack dab in the middle of the fairway. From there head a little right to make it on the green with your second shot.
