Encinitas Ranch Golf Course in Encinitas
This course features ocean views from fifteen holes and is considered one of the most beautiful courses in San Diego County. There is some water and an average amount of sand in the design. Natural features include red sandstone bluffs that accentuate the lay of the land, and the native vegetation that weaves in and around the course. Wind-rows of mature eucalyptus and Torrey Pine trees border some of the fairways, as do the flower fields that remain in production. The course is very playable, except when the wind blows or when playing from the back tees. The signature hole is #14, a 380-yard, par 4, which plays into a valley. The wind, which blows from left to right, is a factor on this hole and if your tee shot is hit too far right the second shot will come to rest on a severe uphill lie. The toughest hole is considered #9, a 495-yard, par 5, which plays straight uphill. A double-ended driving range and practice area has been developed to accommodate public practice as well as a golf teaching school.
