Course History:

This resort course has something for the whole family, including tennis, horseback riding and many other activities. The staff here are incredibly friendly and the course has built up a reputation of being one of the nicest in the area. Designed by the famous Robert Muir Graves, this beautiful course is incredibly challenging but still fun. It is definitely one of the nicest and most professional courses in California and the surrounding areas.

What You Need to Know:

You can reserve your tee time by calling the number listed above or by using their online system. The course frequently runs specials, so we highly recommend visiting their website before you book. Lessons are available from the on site pros and the pro shop is very well stocked.

We recommend wearing traditional golf attire, although the course doesn't state that there is a dress code. If you have any questions we recommend contacting the pro shop. Since it is a resort course, you'll probably want to err on the side of caution and dress conservatively.

Playing Hints:

As we mentioned earlier, this is a challenging course, and you'll need to bring your best game. The main issue are the water hazards which affect pretty much every hole. You'll be dealing with a creek throughout the entire course, and there are also some sizable lakes that make several holes a lot more interesting.

While most of the holes are straightforward, there are a few with a slight dog leg. You'll need to focus more on avoiding the water and going for a long, straight drive. The bunkers aren't terribly bad but there are enough of them to make it challenging.

The greens for the second and third hole are cut off by the creek, so you'll want to make sure that you land your drive in a spot where it will be easy to get across with one shot. The same creek also affects the fifteenth and eleventh holes, so you'll be pretty familiar with the creek before the end of your game.

The first green is situated directly next to a large lake, so you'll want to keep to the right of the fairway for the best chances of avoiding it. On the thirteenth hole however, keep to the left to avoid the lake before the green.
