Beaumont Country Club

Alex Findlay laid the BCC out in 1906, making it one of the oldest clubs in the state. He created what is now a short, old-school layout with narrow, tree-lined fairways and small, immaculately conditioned greens.

Findlay opens the course with some of the easiest holes of the 18, including the 291-yard par 4 No. 1. Another short par 4 and two par 3s follow, allowing the day to start right. Later on the front, the number one handicap 8th hole shows up, playing 520 yards and generally not reachable in two.

The back nine consists of short par 4s and 3s and offers plenty of birdie opportunities.

Getting there : From I-10 east, take Hwy. 69 north to Lucas, then drive east to Pine St. Turn left and the course is a short distance down the road.
