About Corral de Tierra Country Club

Corral de Tierra Country Club is a private, member-owned club set between the greater Monterey Peninsula and the Salinas Valley. For more than 60 years it has combined golf with dining, tennis, swimming, fitness and social activities in a casual, family-oriented setting.

The 18-hole course was designed by Bob E. Baldock. It plays to a par of 72 and measures just under 7,000 yards from the back tees, with a course rating of 72.4 and a slope of 134. Multiple sets of tees on every hole allow the layout to suit a range of abilities, and the course has served as a U.S. Open qualifying site.

The club runs a junior golf program and a family golf program, and membership is limited, giving members access to the course and other facilities.
