I played Pacific Grove Municipal on the Monterrey Peninsula just north of Pebble Beach in the middle of September this year. The back nine of Pacific Grove was the coolest nine I have played. The front, for looks, was like just another course; the back made this the favorite course I have played. The last three holes on the front, however, were all into the wind and we bogeyed all three holes in our scramble (we finished 1-under). the back nine turned into oo's and ahhh's from me after hole number ten when we turned toward the ocean. I learned what "ice-plant" is, and can understand why you take a drop from it; almost no chance to hit a good shot from it and a much better chance to break your wrist hitting from it!
This place is commonly known as "The poor man's Pebble Beach," since the designer of the back nine designed Pebble Beach.
EDIT: $45 with a cart, weekdays (Thanks Craig Mac, I forgot about price!)
