About
Talega Golf Club is one of southern California's treasures, offering a challenging Fred Couples layout that sits above the "Spanish Village by the Sea." The course winds through canyons and valleys offering scenic views of the surrounding countryside throughout. The diverse layout will test your shot-making skills and there are also several interesting risk-reward opportunities including two reachable par 4s that will please long hitters. There is an abundance of bunkers coming into play, especially along the fairways, and golfers will be faced with the occasional blind shot. The greens are extremely quick and not a single one is flat. Nearly every green has multiple tiers. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. One of Talega's most memorable holes is the monstrous 13th. This par 5 requires a carry over not just one but two ravines.

Beautiful course
Absolutely beautiful! Well maintained. Will definitely be back again
Amazing course! Great views, challenging holes
This is my favorite course in Southern California, that's under $250. The views are spectacular, the holes are challenging, and some are very long. Long so you get to drive and hit your irons. Greens are well groomed. Well paste and challenging and some holes. I highly recommend this course at least once in your lifetime. It's my favorite and I hope to play it more often.
Tell me a Talega
Talega starts with a friendly handshake over the first few holes to comfortably welcome you to the round. The first most challenging shot of the day comes at the Par 3 fifth hole, nearly 200 yards over water to a challenging green complex. The course layout is interesting with five par 3's and five par 5's and your round can be made or broken based on your performance on these holes. Aside from the first par 5 (#2) the others on the course are tricky and take some experience and local knowledge to best navigate. Keeping the ball in play off the tee is key across the entire course and a good score can be achieved if playing from the fairway and avoiding tempting, sucker pins. There was no cart girl during our Sunday morning and the grille was closed, leaving only the halfway house window for takeaway snacks and beverages.
Thirsty
Course is a nice layout, challenging, good greens. Course could use a beverage cart, televisions, & a much better bar & food variety. US Open on & not a TV in site.
Fun course
Played first time with two other first timers… the course conditions are very good, except a few bumpy greens. The layout is fun, but we did have a few holes that we couldn’t figure where to hit tee shots. One of the hole has only a pole in the distance which we assumed was the target. It turned out to be the wrong direction, good tee shot just sent the balls to the woods beyond the pole… I wish the course could have the graphic GPS so that you could figure out where to tee your shot to. Overall it was a fun track and very enjoyable with good pace… we finished in four hours without much waiting… would love to come back again
Fun course, great shape
Course is in great shape, starters were very helpful, the back 9 is challenging with a couple of blind spots when you tee off. Pay attention to the carts prompts when teeing off. Will definitely be coming back to play again. Great job guys!
Such a beautiful gem!
We love this course had played there many times and will be back for sure!
Disappointed.
My friend and I played Saturday the weekend of memorial day. We were disappointed that there was no drink cart on the course that day. Holiday weekend, and no one driving around to help speed up play. We stopped at the snack bar after nine holes and it took too long to get something to eat so we kept playing, so it’s not to hold up the group behind us.
No Driving Range
There's no driving range on site. You have to drive 5 minutes to an off site range. For $100+ per round, that's rough
Beautiful Course!
The course and greens are in fantastic shape. It is a challenging but fair course. Highly recommend.
