Course History:
This is one of the most prestigious courses in California that has received numerous accolades. They include:
Condé Nast Traveler - #13 Golf Resort Worldwide
Golf Digest - #2 Golf Resort in California, #11 Golf Resort in North America
Gary Gaylean's The Golf Letter - International Top 20

Designed by Robert Trent Jones, who was given free reign, this is definitely not a course for the faint of heart. This is championship level playing at its best, and although it costs a pretty penny to play here, this is one course that should definitely be included in the list of courses to play before you die. It's well worth the fee for the experience alone.
What You Need to Know:
This is a course where you will definitely need to be on your best behavior. Traditional golf attire only, no cutoffs or denim are allowed. The pro shop is as you would expect, exceptional and the practice facilities are spectacular. The restaurant offers the best in cuisine and has a wonderful atmosphere for relaxing after your game.
There is a youth golf program at the course, as well as a caddie internship program that has produced some of the finest and most well paid caddies in the state.
Overall, for the money, this is still one of the best courses in California.
Playing Hints:
This is a very long course with over 7,000 yards and some pretty high elevations. Walking is encouraged however, so you won't need to worry quite as much about the speed of play. There aren't too many water hazards and although the bunkers are extreme, if your aim is good they should not present too much of a problem. The key to getting through this course is pacing yourself and mastering the art of the accurate long drive.
Most of the holes are very straightforward and there are only a few doglegs that can be surmounted by simply paying attention and aiming in the correct direction. The main challenge is definitely the rolling nature of the course and it is easy to lose sight of where you are aiming if you find yourself at the bottom of one of the main valleys on the course. Patience is also key since this is a course that cannot be mastered with one round of golf.
