River Course at Alisal
Rating Snapshot
About
The River Course at Alisal enjoys a scenic backdrop provided by the foothills of the beautiful Santa Ynez Mountains. Stands of mature live oaks, native sycamores, and elderberry trees sway against the vivid hues of the mountains. Though scenery abounds, don't get too distracted because the golf course demands a fair amount of attention. It's a challenging but not punishing layout that features a variety of hazards that will reward length and accuracy. Seemingly wide fairways are bordered by mounding and the large greens have subtle but tricky undulations. One of the toughest holes is the par-4 seventh, which has a challenge waiting for you everywhere you look. A beautiful vineyard runs the length of the hole on one side and on the other, there is a lake that runs all the way up to the green.

Decent track
Paid 60 dollars
Played 18 holes in 2.5 hours
Greens were good
They just aerated the fairways
Almost Like Heaven
We had breakfast at the Grill, srvice and food was good. Headed out for some practice putting and then off to #1. We were joined by two local Dudes, who showed us the way around the course during play. Nicest guys ever, and very patient with our play. Made our visit fantastic. We will play there again. Solvang is a beautiful place to visit and play golf.

This course is awesome. You must play here when passing thru or staying. Put this on your list of courses. Beautiful scenery on every hole.
Precision off the tee box for about 4 holes. Don’t be afraid of the water
Play with someone that won’t try to describe to about every hole
I played here 2 days in a row. The second day was way better experience and play.
Nice afternoon
I played as a single and enjoyed a quick round, including a tasty hot dog at the turn. Conditions were perfect, unlike my round.

My buddy and I played this course as we recreated the trip from the movie Sideways. We truly enjoyed the corse, it was challenging and a bit messy from grass clippings but the experience was awesome!
