Frequently Asked Questions

How can I actually get a tee time at Cypress Point Golf Club?

Let's be direct - playing Cypress Point is an extraordinary privilege, not a public booking. You absolutely need a personal invitation from a member, and even then, securing a spot requires patience and impeccable connections. It's truly one of golf's most exclusive experiences.

When is the best time of year to experience Cypress Point's magic?

We recommend aiming for late spring through early fall, typically May to October, for the most consistent weather. During these months, you'll often find clearer skies and less of the famous Monterey fog, allowing the course's stunning ocean vistas to truly shine. Avoid winter if you can, as rain can be a factor.

What should I expect regarding the cost of a round at Cypress Point?

While green fees are substantial, the true 'cost' is the effort and connections required to secure an invitation. If you're fortunate enough to be invited, expect a green fee in the range of several hundred dollars, plus a mandatory caddie fee and gratuity. Consider it an investment in a once-in-a-lifetime golf pilgrimage.

Which holes at Cypress Point truly define its legendary status?

Without a doubt, the stretch from 15 to 17 is what legends are made of. The par-3 15th demands a heroic carry over the ocean, followed by the iconic par-3 16th, where you're hitting directly across a cove to a tiny green. The par-4 17th then brings you back along the coastline, offering breathtaking views and a challenging finish to the ocean holes.

What's the overall experience like playing a round at Cypress Point, beyond just the golf?

It's an immersion into golf history and natural beauty, feeling almost untouched by time. You'll walk the course with a knowledgeable caddie, soaking in the serene atmosphere and the dramatic coastal landscape that frames every shot. The club itself is understated elegance, focusing entirely on the purity of the golf experience.
