Alisal Ranch Golf Course
Designed by the legendary Billy Bell, Jr., our 6,550-yard, par-72 Ranch Course originally opened in 1956 and is exclusively for our guests and club members. This beautiful course was designed around an imposing barranca that winds through it, and you’ll enjoy being surrounded by venerable oaks, pines, sycamores, and eucalyptus. The Ranch Course is also known for its tight fairways and is an excellent challenge for the seasoned golfer.

Alisal River Course
Open since 1992, the 6,800-yard, par-72 River Course is located along the Santa Ynez River, with beautiful trees and water throughout; the distant Santa Ynez Mountains also contribute to the majestic setting. Elevated tee boxes offer sweeping vistas of the fairways, and the greens are large with moderate undulations. The strategic placement of a variety of hazards rewards length and accuracy without severely penalizing casual and recreational golfers. The River Course is open to the public and ideal for beginners as well as families.
