About Pasatiempo Golf Course

The Pasatiempo Golf Course, designed by renowned architect Alister MacKenzie, is a beautiful and historic course known for its well-groomed fairways and fast, challenging greens. While the course can be demanding, with numerous sand traps and a high level of difficulty, it offers a rewarding golfing experience for players of all skill levels. The on-site Mackenzie Bar and Grill provides a pleasant spot to relax after a round, with good food, friendly service, and scenic views of the surrounding area. Despite some concerns about the pace of play, the course's charm and design have made it a popular destination for golfers looking for a memorable round in a picturesque setting.

Pasatiempo is S tier. Favorite course I’ve played in the US. Not cheap but still less than half the price of all-in Pebble. And so cool playing a McKenzie course. Greens/bunkers/design all unreal. Walk it if you’re able - you really get a sense of how special his designs are. Course was in immaculate condition as of late July. Super friendly staff and members to boot - thanks for the drink, Ari! Can’t wait to go back.

Had a great time playing the course and conditions were perfect. All staff were very helpful and the food in the restaurant after the round hit the spot. Only issue was the head cover I bought has started falling apart.

Wow! Such a tough, fun, great course to play ⛳️ and a pretty decent burger dog at the turn. Not cheap though... the golf or the dog. Great service, great experience, in my top 10 norcal courses.
