Carmel

Behind the welcoming gates of the vast, 1700-acre estate known as Carmel Valley Ranch lies a world of extraordinary natural beauty. Verdant fairways, majestic oaks and brilliant flowers are set against the rugged hills of the Monterey Peninsula, just minutes east of Carmel-by-the-Sea. While golfers consider the course to be the principal attraction at Carmel Valley Ranch, the Resort attracts couples who seek privacy and amenities such as balcony decks, two room suites and corner room locations with an outdoor deck jacuzzi. In room massages, horseback riding, tennis courts and even a child's play center are a few of the on site offerings. Pete Dye recently finished an artful redesign of his original golf course to increase playability. Railroad tie and telephone bulkheading is deemed an integral part of this course ranked by Golf Magazine as one of Monterey's "must plays". Winding along the Carmel River and into the hills, the 18-hole championship layout now encompasses wider fairways, modified bunkers, enlarged greens and new lagoon hazards. The front nine holes meander along the Carmel River while the heavily forested back nine offer stunning panoramas shared only with fox, deer and wild turkey that make the course their home.
