KNOW THE COURSE
What to know
Design context
Alister MacKenzie designed Pasatiempo and made his American home beside its sixth fairway. The club’s restoration material highlights the importance of its original green and bunker design rather than presenting the course as a newly created layout.
Playing character
The club describes a walkable routing with tees near the preceding greens, but also notes elevation changes. Plan for a hilly round and give yourself time around the greens; select walking or other arrangements according to your needs and current club policy.
Ask HH about this→Features worth noticing
The sixth-fairway connection to MacKenzie and the restored green complexes provide concrete points of interest. The club’s restoration story gives particular attention to the sixteenth green, without requiring an unsupported ‘best hole’ claim.
Public access, precisely stated
Book one of the designated public tee times through the club’s official path. Check dress requirements and confirm any desired caddie or instruction arrangements directly; public availability is not guaranteed for a particular date.
A Santa Cruz golf visit
