Santa Barbara Golf Club

Public golf course

Overview:
Don't let the status of this wonderful course fool you.  Just because the city of Santa Barbara owns it, that doesn't mean "municipal" should be used in association with it.  We prefer 'classic.'  The grounds offer great views of the mountains.

It ranks among the top in the nation for action with more than 77,000 rounds played here each year.  The low cost and convenient location afford easy access - even if you just want a quick nine.

Specifics:
This par 70, 18-hole course is 6,014 yards.  It was built in 1958 and designed by Lawrence Hughes

Amenities:
The picturesque facility also boasts a practice putting green and driving range with ocean views, golf shop, snack shop, an abundance of golf carts, and a modern clubhouse with banquet facilities. Organized playing opportunities for all ages and levels include the Santa Barbara Women's Club, The Tuesday Swingers, The Santa Barbara Men's Club, The Paisanos, and the Hits and Misses. For youth ages 7-17, the Russ Morrison Junior Golf Club fosters golf fundamentals and skill-building for advancement to junior tournament level. Tournaments, club fitting and repairs, and lessons round out our City golf program.

Directions
Take the 101 to Las Positas Avenue. At the top of the exit turn towards the mountains.  When you have actually passed the course on your left, you will come to McCaw Avenue, which is a small street on the left hand side of the road.  It is very easy to miss.  If you reach State Street you have gone too far.  Turn left onto McCaw and drive to the entrance of the Course.
