Saddle Creek Golf Course, Copperopolis, CA

Saddle Creek Golf Course is located in: Copperopolis, CA

Phone: 800.611.7722

Website: http://www.saddlecreek.com

Course History:

This is a fairly new course that is part of a resort and residential area. It first opened in 1996 and was designed by Carter Moorish. This is a beautiful course that made excellent use of the surrounding countryside and it quickly became a very popular spot with locals.

The resort offers several stay and play packages and people come from all over the world to experience this course. The level of play is just challenging enough without being too intimidating for the novice player. The course has been voted the 8th best in California by Golf Week Magazine and has also won numerous other accolades.

What You Need to Know:

This is a traditional course, so it is best to wear a traditional golf shirt and slacks. Denim is not permitted on the course. You can register your tee time by calling the number above. Since this is a resort course, it can be very busy during the high travel season, so it is best to book ahead in order to reserve your spot.

We found the amenities to be top notch and the grill was absolutely terrific. It's easy to relax in the sumptuous club house and the staff was very friendly. Overall, this was a very enjoyable trip and we highly recommend it to anyone. The fees are actually quite low given the quality of the course and the natural beauty of the surrounding area makes for a truly elegant time, even at budget prices.

Playing Hints:

Water hazards are the number one issue with this course. You'll be dealing with them on nearly every hole and they range from small little ponds to enormous lakes. You'll need to steer clear of these and work on your accuracy to ensure that your drives don't end up in the drink.

Our favorite hole was the 11th, where you'll be driving across the water. It's a short par three, but you will need to work to get a par. The green is well protected with sand traps and it is no easy task to get your ball to land exactly where you want it. We also enjoyed the 18th hole. Even though there are plenty of traps situated on the fairway, it was just the right size to allow you enough room to make up for any past holes that drove your score down. You should be able to birdie this hole without difficulty.

Widgi Creek Golf Club, Bend, OR

Widgi Creek Golf Club is located in: Bend, OR

Phone: (541) 382-4449

Website: http://www.widgi.com/golf/hours.cfm

Course History:

This is a great place to stop if you will be in the Bend, OR area. We fell in love with this course and can't wait to go back. It is extremely beautiful and we have the time of our life playing the course. It has all the perfect elements that make a golf course great and it is well suited to many different types of players.

Golf Digest has named this among their Best Places to Play year after year, and it is easy to see why this course is so popular.

What You Need to Know:

You can book your tee time by calling the number listed above. This is a very friendly course and you won't have too worry about too many restrictions. The staff are very helpful, the clubhouse is idyllic and the food at the grill was out of this world. There are few courses that can combine all of these vital elements into one great experience, but Widgi Creek manages to do just that and then some.

Playing Hints:

While the course is not terribly difficult, you'll still need to bring your best game with you. Water hazards are plentiful here and the bunkers are positively cavernous. You'll want to do all that you can to avoid both. Accuracy really counts on this course and there is not a lot of room for error.

The sixth hole offers a great challenge. On the surface it looks like an easy par four, but that is anything but true. You'll be really pushing to get par on this hole, thanks to the location of the water hazard and the slope to the fairway. Stay to the right of the fairway to avoid the water and bunkers that are all along the left side of this hole. In addition, the green is raised, so you'll need to have a good chip shot to get anything close to par on this one.

Oak Valley Golf Course, Beaumont, CA

Oak Valley Golf Course, Beaumont, CAOak Valley Golf Course is located in: Beaumont, CA

Phone: (951) 769-7200

Website: http://www.oakvalleygolf.com/pages.asp?pid=33

Course History:

This gorgeous golf course is home to several PGA events every year and it is easy to see why. It literally looks as though it was painted into the surroundings and you simply cannot find a more beautiful course in this area. If you're planning a trip to the Beaumont area, this is a course that you simply must play.

With just the right mix of terrain, this course is very challenging but always fun to play. It's easy to see why it achieved instant fame with locals and players from around the world.

What You Need to Know:

This is a very traditional course and they do have a dress code. Collared shirts are required, and appropriate pants or shorts are allowed. They do not allow denim in any form on the course and we do recommend soft spikes for this facility. You can register your tee time online or by calling the number listed above. They do carry soft spikes at the pro shop if you do not have them already.

Speaking of the pro shop, it is simply fantastic. We've seen a lot in our days, but this was one of the best stocked shops in the area. Very friendly service as well and a great place to buy gifts for the golfers on your list. The clubhouse was incomparable and worth the trip just for the food.

Playing Tips:

Since this is a challenging course, you'll need to bring your best game. There are not a lot of water hazards, only two, so you won't have to worry about that. However, the elevation changes are a whole other matter. Our favorite hole was the seventh hole. It looks easy, but it's anything but. You'll have a straight shot to the green from the tee, but in the middle, you'll be dealing with a lot of undulation. Try for a really strong tee shot and just keep aiming straight ahead.

Cherry Island Golf Course, Elverta, CA

Cherry Island Golf Course is located in: Elverta, CA

Phone: 916-991-7293

Cherry Island Golf Course, Elverta, CA

Website: http://www.empiregolf.com/empire/cherryisland

Course History:

Robert Muir Graves, one of the most celebrated course archtitects today designed this course in 1990. It has become an area favorite with most golfers and offers just the right level of challenging play for golfers of all skill levels. The course is lush and scenic and is a great place to relax and get away from it all. It is tucked away, so we included directions on how to get to the course below.

What You Need to Know:

This is truly a full service golf course with a great grill, pro shop and lessons. The practice facility is terrific and offers numerous opportunities to improve on your game. This is a public course but we still recommend wearing appropriate golf attire.

You can register your tee time by calling the number above, but you may want to check out their website as they post frequent specials to save on their already reasonable green fees.

Playing Hints:

Water hazards are plentiful here and there are a few that are quite tricky. The first hole is clear of these but the sharp dog leg will definitely test your skills. The third, fourth, sixth and seventh holes all feature large lakes, so you'll want to try to be as accurate as possible on your tee shots.

The thirteenth hole is bisected by a creek, so you'll need to watch your tee shot here. Some players may prefer to hit it short and then iron over the creek to be on the safe side. The eighteenth hole is no gimme and meanders along with plenty of rough patches to keep you guessing. This one will take some time to master, but you should be able to birdie it with practice.This is a long course so we really recommend making use of a cart unless you are in tip top shape.

Salmon Run Golf Course, Brookings, OR

Salmon Run Golf Course is located in: Brookings, OR

Phone: 877.423.1234

Website: http://www.salmonruninfo.net/

Course History:

This is a truly beautiful course that has won many accolades since it was first built. Most recently, Mike McAllister of Sports Illustrated included it in his special feature, Oregon: 72 Holes in 72 Hours and highly recommended it. It's easy to see why once you arrive. The natural beauty was not destroyed by the course, and in fact, they managed to integrate the course quite well into the existing landscape.

The green fees are actually quite low given the quality of the course and we found our round to be very enjoyable, with just the right amount of challenging play. If you are planning a trip over the border to Oregon, this is the place to stop.

What You Need to Know:

The course frequently runs specials on their website for even more savings on green fees, so we highly recommend stopping by there before you book your tee time. You can call the number above to book, or they do allow for online booking as well.

The course management does specify that twilight times begin at 3pm, and that no coolers are allowed on the course. Each player must all have their own set of clubs, or they can rent one at the pro shop. There is no specific dress code in place, but we still recommend the usual golf attire.

There are several nice inns and resorts in the area that offer special stay and play packages, making this an ideal course to try if you are vacationing in this area. The staff is very friendly and the grill had some truly terrific food. A very nice place to play golf!

This is not a terribly difficult course, but it's not easy either. The course designer managed to find that perfect medium in between the two, making it perfect for both novices and pros alike. The main issue that you will be dealing with on several holes are water hazards, but with care and a good aim, you should be able to avoid most of them without too much trouble.

We loved the Azalea Hole, which is the seventh on the course. Completely enclosed with trees, the narrow fairways offer a great challenge. There is a slight slope to the green, which is elevated from the fairway, so bring your best chip shot to this hole.

We also enjoyed the Alder Row Hole which is the fourteenth on the course. This is a fun hole to play, mainly due to the fact that the fairway has a definite slope down. Your best bet is to stick to the left from the tee, but still manage to avoid the trees. From your tee shot, you should have a better lay up to see the hole and avoid the slope.

Bayonet Golf Course, Seaside, CA

Bayonet Golf Course is located in Seaside, CA

Phone: 831-899-7271

Website: http://www.bayonetblackhorse.com

Course History:

The Bayonet golf course is one of two courses at this location. The Black Horse course integrates with this one and you can choose to play one or the other, or mix it up with nine holes on each. The new additions to the courses are only a few years old, and in fact, the Black Horse back nine were just recently completed. There is a resort onsite and this has quickly become a very popular destination.

The old Bayonet course dates back to 1954 and was the brainchild of General McClure. The course is actually built on the old site of Fort Ord.

What You Need to Know:

This is a very traditional golf course, so we recommend proper golfing attire and soft spikes. You can register your tee time by calling the number listed above, and we highly recommend giving enough of a lag time to ensure getting the time you want. These are very busy and popular courses.

Once you play a round, you'll see why - it is hard to find a round of golf this challenging anywhere else in California. In fact, it has even some of the most famous courses beat, even to some degree, Pebble Beach. They recently added a new online registration system for tee times as well, and they frequently run special offers. We highly recommend checking them out before you book your time.

The grill is worth the trip alone and we have not seen a club house this nice in a very long time. It's all about comfort and relaxation, and after a round on this course, you're going to need it! The pro shop was terrific, and you can browse through most of their products right online. We can't say enough nice things about this amazing course and would recommend it to anyone.

Playing Hints:

You will definitely want to bring your best game to play here. The sand traps are cavernous and the water hazards are treacherous. The eighth hole is a real killer, measuring in at just over 600 yards. Save your strength, since you'll be headed for the ninth hole for a total of more than 1000 yards for both.

Overall, our best advice is to hit long and hard, and don't neglect your short game. It's almost impossible to get a par here, unless you are a very seasoned pro, but it sure is a lot of fun trying.

Seascape Golf Club, Aptos, CA

Seascape Golf Club is located in Aptos, CA

Phone: 831-688-3213

Website: http://www.seascapegc.com

Course History:

Seascape Golf Club was originally known as Rio Del Mar when it was founded in 1926. The club became an instant success, but the onset of World War II meant closure. The club was turned into a victory garden to help the war effort and once the war was over, it reopened as Seascape.

Known for the natural beauty of the surrounding land, this is a popular course that is not only fun to play but challenging as well. It is well worth the trip out, and there are few courses in this area that can come close to comparing.

What You Need to Know:

You can register your tee-time by calling the number listed above, but we do recommend checking their website for specials before you do. The pro shop here is terrific and we were surprised by the selection and quality of the merchandise. One meal at the grill and its obvious why this club is rented out so often for special events.

We recommend traditional golf attire when visiting this club, as well as the use of soft spikes.

Playing Hints:

The main challenge you'll be facing with this course are the numerous bunkers. You definitely want to avoid them at all costs, but that is easier said than done. Many a player has demolished their score after ending up in any one of these tough bunkers.

Even though the course is around 6000 yards, they've designed the holes so that they are actually quite long. We highly recommend using a cart, especially if you're not in the best of shape. The fairways are on the narrow side and most are tree lined, so accuracy is truly the key to getting a par on this course.

Our favorite hole was the thirteenth. You'll have a nice clear shot to the green, but it gets more complicated from there. The green is protected by a small lake and two bunkers, so we recommend a short second shot, to give you a good chance of getting a chip lined up for more accuracy.

Fees:

Mon-Thurs / Friday / Sat, Sun, Holidays

18 Hole - $50 / $55 / $72

9 Holes first hour of daylight - $20 / $20 / $25

Twilight 2:00pm - $31 / $31 / $41

Bailey Creek Golf Course, Lake Alamanor, CA

Bailey Creek Golf Course, Lake Alamanor, CABailey Creek Golf Course is located in: Lake Alamanor, CA

Phone: 530-259-GOLF

Website: http://www.baileycreek.com/

Course History:

This stunning course was designed by Howard Flint and has won numerous awards and accolades since it first opened. This is definitely a championship course, but novices still have a good shot if they use the right tees. The combination of first class service, stunning natural views and a great challenge make this one of the best courses in the area.

What You Need to Know:

This is a terrific course, that is outdone only by the accommodations. The practice facility is more than worth the trip and offers a driving range complete with mats, as well as grass chipping areas. The pro shop is a marvel and offers just about everything you could ever want.

You can register your tee time by calling the number above. This is a popular course, so it is important to make sure that your slot is reserved. During your round, take advantage of the great snack bar - it's well worth it. After you're done, you can relax in the clubhouse, which is very sumptuously appointed.

Playing Hints:

The variation in terrain makes this a challenging course. We recommend a cart, especially if you're not in the best of shape. Each hole has numerous bunkers lining the fairway, so accuracy really counts here. There are a few water hazards to watch out for as well. However, if you can keep to the middle of the fairway and work on your distance, you should be able to master this course without a problem.

The best hole is the 10th and it is quite a challenge. The green is surrounded by bunkers, so you will want to shorten your second shot to give yourself a chance to avoid them. Your approach shot is vital here since the green is quite small. By taking these precautions you can still par, if you are an accurate putter.

Alhambra Golf Course, Alhambra, CA

Alhambra Golf Course is located in: Alhambra, CA

Phone: (626) 570-5059

Website: www.alhambragolf.com

Course History:

Considered to be one of the best kept secrets in Southern California, Alhambra Golf Course offers a rare level of play at an incredible price. You’ll be able to play on this amazing course for less than $30 in most cases, and compared to other courses in the same area, that is definitely a steal. We haven’t come across a course this nice, or this cheap in a long time, so it was a definite treat to visit here.

The course is a bit short, coming in at just over 5200 yards, but they do have a regulation 70 par. It’s actually made up of two distinct nine hole courses, but if you choose to play both, you’ll find the experience quite fun.

What You Need to Know:

You can register your tee time by calling the number above and the course also has an online registration system. We highly recommend checking out the practice facility, which in keeping with how the course handles things, is incredibly valuable and offers some great chances to improve your game.

This is a public course, so the dress code is not as strict. We do however recommend soft spikes while you’re here. The pro shop is well stocked and we really enjoyed the grill. Considering that this is a municipal course, it completely exceeded our expectations.

Playing Hints:

This is a pretty straightforward course that is suitable for both novices and professionals. There are not a lot of hazards, but the terrain can be a bit challenging at times. There are two main water bodies, and they affect mainly the ninth and seventh holes, and slightly the second hole.

There are a few sand traps to avoid, but overall, this is a fun course to play and a great place to get in a solid practice round. Our favorite hole was the tenth hole. On this one, you’re going to want to go a little to the left on your drive in order to avoid the gigantic tree that is smack dab in the middle of the fairway. From there head a little right to make it on the green with your second shot.
