The Club at Pasadera – history & background information

The Club at Pasadera opened as Pasadera Country Club in 2000 before being rebranded as The Nicklaus Club – Monterey in 2013. In 2019, The Club at Pasadera name was adopted.

A group of local investors purchased The Nicklaus Group for approximately $3.2 million and renamed it The Club at Pasadera.

Before that, a Chinese conglomerate named HNA Group bought the private club from its original owners, Pasadera Country Club LLC, for about $7.5 million in 2010. The current owners bought the club from HNA.

Jack Nicklaus Signature Design golf course

The Club at Pasadera features a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design golf course – the only Nicklaus Signature Design on the Monterey Peninsula. The front nine has a traditional feel, while the back nine has extreme elevation changes with tee boxes set on mountaintops, well above many fairways.

The course measures 6,801 yards from the tips and plays to a par of 71.   

The Clubhouse of The Club at Pasadera

A full-service lifestyle club, The Club at Pasadera’s 38,000-square-foot, California-hacienda-style clubhouse is the crown jewel of the community. The clubhouse includes

  • a timeless courtyard,
