DeLaveaga Golf Course & Lodge
Rating Snapshot
About
Perched in the hills above Santa Cruz, DeLaveaga Golf Course & Lodge features plenty of elevation changes as well as tight, tree-lined fairways making this short layout anything but a cinch. The result of the tight layout, however, often translates into long rounds as higher handicappers look for their golf balls in the woods. Designed by Bert Stamps, the golf course opened in 1970. Conditioning is average, but DeLaveaga Golf Course & Lodge's green fees are a small fraction of its more famous neighbors.

The greens are good but divots can be fixed
The tee area is trim up
Real fun place.
Delaveagan
This is a very nice course in the hills above Santa Cruz. No houses in sight, lovely setting. The course is not long, but is very tricky, with lots of elevation changes, uneven lies and mounded greens. It will test your skills, but is a lot of fun. There is a restaurant and fully appointed pro shop on site. Enjoy it for yourself…
Good course and pretty challenging
Great weather
Tee boxes are rough. Fairways are severely dry hard pan in many areas. Staff is great. Pace of place is good. Many greens are very close to tee boxes.
Beautiful but difficult course!
Awesome course and very friendly staff! Will definitely return soon!
Great Greens
Awesome course to play for the first time . Really impressed with the greens that were fast and true. It’s not terribly long but the course can be tough if you don’t put the ball in the fairway, this course can punish you if you don’t give each shot the proper attention . I’ll be back for sure. Great staff friendly and very helpful. Great experience.
Awfully dry
This used to be my home course. I haven’t played here in over 5 years. I love this course, tough as always, but it is really dried out. Played with a nice young man. Played like crap. All in all it was a fun round.
It’s ok but not great
Lots of blind fairways. Gully’s and blind corners that made it difficult if you hadn’t played there before.
A lot of short par 4’s made it easier. The greens were in nice shape.
Fun place to play
I wish it was a little less pricey on weekends
$95 many other public courses less on weekends.
But I do enjoy the course
