Get ready to shout “fore” in style at some magnificent courses that are even lusher now that the drought has abated. Surrounded by rolling hills, ranches and vineyards, our local golf courses definitely have some great scenery to enhance your play time.
Just five minutes from downtown Solvang, The River Course at The Alisal is situated on the banks of the Santa Ynez River against a backdrop of the Santa Ynez Mountains, and was prominently featured in the 2004 Oscar-winning movie Sideways; plus the River Terrace overlooking the course is a delicious place for breakfast and/or lunch.
