Rating 75.4

Located at the heart of the immense Anza Borrego State Park, Rams Hill Golf Club sits perched on a hillside overlooking the desert floor. Tom Fazio designed the course, fully utilizing the existing features of the terrain from the natural slopes and undulations to the many lakes and streams. The layout features rolling fairways and elevated greens framed by carefully sculpted bunkers. Each hole has a different character, as well as a different set of challenges, thanks to the natural elevation changes. The final hole is considered a classic Fazio finishing hole and one of the most memorable on the golf course. This par 5 begins with a downhill tee shot to a wide fairway that slopes towards a large lake on the right, then you'll face an uphill third shot to a green protected by an array of threatening bunkers and a large waterfall.

Perfect

Perfect is the best way to describe this course. I've played a lot of top notch courses and the conditions of this course is near the top. Greens were running at 11.3 and were just immaculate. Fairways, rough and tee boxes couldn't be any better. The layout itself was very fun and challenging at the same time. I would definitely recommend the drive out there to play this gem, especially at the Golfnow rate of $75.

Great Course - Wayyyyy Out There

If this course was anywhere closer to San Diego it would be demanding hundreds of dollars to play. Fortunately we got out for $75 a pop. Immaculate conditioning, polite and attentive staff- there is nothing more you can ask for in a golf club... except maybe that they dig it up and move it a couple hours closer.

Desert paradise

If you like quick true rolling greens, perfect lies if you don't hit it in the desert and fantastic long views of close loaning mountains from every hole give Ram's Hill a try. A fun course that will yield good scores to players who think their way around the course.

The New Rams Hill!

An absolutely beautiful course in a gorgeous setting with an efficient and friendly staff. The wind was the only drawback during our play....it came up mid afternoon. It made it difficult to finish our round.

Cannot wait to go back and play during the winter.
