This is a beautiful course that is very well liked among the locals as well as travelers. It is considered to be one of the most well maintained courses in California and their unique blend of fairway grasses stay green nearly all year round. The course management really keeps everything running quite well here and the fairways are always well trimmed and sculpted. The greens are a bit fast here, but that just adds to the challenge.

We recommend checking back with them often to save off their already low cost green fees.

Lessons are available from the onsite pros and they offer several levels of instruction. The course is located near a special RV park and also sits near some prime real estate that has been integrated with the course. If you're an avid golfer, this is a great place to set up a home.

The Putter's Bistro and Pub is worth the trip alone and has become very popular even among those who do not golf. They frequently cater special events in the area and it is easy to see why. The food here is simply fantastic. The pro shop is very well stocked and has all the latest merchandise and brands.

The practice facility is top notch and features a driving range, putting green as well as an area to work on your chip shots. These facilities are also very well maintained and very popular.

Playing Hints:

This is a great course that is challenging enough for pros while being a good fit for novice players. The holes are pretty straightforward and the water hazards are challenging without being intimidating.

La Purisima Golf Course, Lompoc, CA

La Purisima Golf Course is located in: Lompoc, CA

Phone: (805) 735-8395

Course History:

This is an amazing course designed by the famous Robert Muir Graves. Stretched out over more than 300 acres, this is a challenging course that pros will love, but novices shouldn't feel too overwhelmed. The course is located about 30 miles from Santa Barbara and since it opened in 1986, it has been incredibly popular with both the locals and travelers. The local hotels offer many different stay and play packages, and given the fact that the course is so well appointed, the fees are actually very reasonable.

What You Need to Know:

You can book your tee time by calling the number listed above, or by visiting their website. If you will be staying in the area, we highly recommend checking out their discount page for special rates at local hotels as well as reduced prices on your green fees. Since this is an upscale course, traditional golf attire is recommended, and denim is of course, strictly prohibited.

Only one course in California has been ranked higher than La Purisima by the readers of Golf Digest and that is Pebble Beach. That speaks volumes for the quality of this course, not only with the level of play, but also the practice facilities, the pro shop and the bar and grill. This is a very relaxing place to go, and the course offers just the right amount of challenging play for pros and novices alike.

Playing Hints:

You'll be dealing with a variety of hazards, including lakes and bunkers, and the design of this course is pretty challenging. Each hole features slopes that will test your skills and there are some terrific dog legs that will definitely give your game a workout. We recommend spending a little time in the practice facility before you head out on the links.

The key to this course is accuracy and knowing when to really power your tee shot and when to hold back a little. This is not a course that can be mastered after one round, but it sure is fun trying to get there. Overall, our best recommendation is simply to go with the flow on your first round, and make sure you stay long enough to play at least two. This will give you the best experience that the course has to offer, and you'll be able to get that practice round out of the way right off the bat.
