Client Course Description

Located in the heart of the Livermore Valley Wine Country, the 27-hole Rees Jones design is reminiscent of the heathland courses of Scotland.

Designer Notes

An open site on rugged terrain, this course was designed to fit naturally into the ridges and valleys, and has an 'inland links' feel to it, complete with strong winds. One of the Northern California Golf Association courses, this popular 27-hole layout played 85,000 rounds its initial year.
