"The number one comment I hear from people is that it's unlike any other golf course they've played in the Southern California region," PGA Professional and General Manager Matt Kalbak told CCM over coffees on a Saturday morning in April. "And this is no bull, they say the greens are the finest putting surfaces they've ever experienced."Monarch Dunes will be shooting for inclusion next year on lists of "best new daily-fee courses of 2006." More ambitiously, by 2008, the hope is that the course can break into the "top 100 best daily-fee courses in the U.S.," Kalbak said. "In my humble opinion," he said, "Monarch Dunes is the best layout in central California and one of the best layouts in the state."
