Pebblebrook Golf Course & Recreation Center

Have only played the front 9 here but like this place. Good for beginners. Very walkable. Carts aren’t the best but they work. I love not having to book a tee time most of the time, but I also hope that means business is ok. There are a LOT of leaves on the course which can make finding your ball challenging. Also lots of geese and goose by-​product. However, it’s affordable and a nice place to play.

The guy who runs it is a total jerk. He tried to charge us twice and accused us of trying to play too many holes. Par 3’s are abundant and too short. They don’t sell beer. And the greens are like a soggy sponge. For the price I would drive 5 minutes to a nicer course that has better upkeep and you’ll be treated respectfully!!!

Honestly, I may be attaching some sentimentality to this place as the first golf course I ever played.
It was the last day of my sophomore year of high school and my friend Preston and I had receive our textbook deposit back. We decided to skip the rest of the day, and for some crazy reason ended up at Pebblebrook, He’d golfed once before, and I decided to give it a go.
You can imagine that two 15-​year-​olds with rented clubs were nothing but awesome. But Pebblebrook is the kind of place that you can do that. It’s never been too crowded, it’s right there in Sandy (we lived within walking distance-​ish) and it’s not too expensive.
I’ve been back a few times. It’s a nice enough facility. Not too fancy, and the clubhouse leaves a lot to be desired. To be fair, I haven’t golfed the mini golf, but big ups for being one of the longest-​standing mini golf courses around SLC. RIP 49^th Street Galleria/​Fun Dome.
There’s a little variety here on elevation gain, but not much water that comes into play after the first few holes. Since it’s in the middle of suburbia, you do have to deal with neighbors’ fences some and can kiss a few golf balls goodbye if you’re a hefty shot or horribly inaccurate. I fit one of those descriptions – I’ll let you decide which.
