Top 40 Private Clubs—California 2025

Riviera Country Club, Pacific Palisades

The California landscape is amazingly diverse, from the rocky northern pacific coast of Monterey to the mountains of Lake Tahoe, the desert beauty of Palm Springs and the sandy beaches of Southern California—and also home to many of the greatest golf courses in the world.

We’ve included our Top 40 California Private Clubs below, or you can spin through all of the private courses in California listed by GolfDay Rating.

Clubs are listed on the basis of GolfDay Rating, and listings include a link to the club website, the year founded, course architect(s), current USGA course and slope ratings as well as a link to Google Maps for each location.

Alistair Mackenzie

Our California Top 40 include four original Dr. Alistair Mackenzie designs, who became perhaps the most celebrated golf course architect in history when he collaborated with Bobby Jones to create Augusta National. Many believe, however, that his greatest work may be Cypress Point Club in Pebble Beach—Number 1 in our Top 40.

In addition to Cypress Point, Dr. Mackenzie also did the original design at The Valley Club of Montecito in Santa Barbara (#11), Green Hills Country Club (#17) and Meadow Club (#27).

William “Willie” Watson

Although not quite as famous as Allister Mackenzie, William “Willie” Watson was another Scott who made his way to the western United States in the early 1900’s and created a great many wonderful layouts, four of which are among our Top 40–including both courses at the iconic Olympic Club in San Francisco (#4).

In addition to classic courses steeped in history, our Top 40 private clubs also include four modern designs by Tom Fazio, including The Quarry (#9) and The Madison Club (#12) in the desert at La Quinta, Martis Camp near Lake Tahoe (#10), and The Preserve (#15) in Carmel—about as different as can be from the standpoint of climate and topography.

GolfDay U.S. Top 100 Public Courses: 2023

Chambers Bay, WA

Our list of the Top 100 public courses in the U.S. (below) does not include resorts, so Pebble Beach. Pinehurst, Bandon Dunes and other wonderful resort courses are not shown here (the GolfDay Top 100 Resorts is published separately). 

The GolfDay Rating is based on a variety of criteria, including the stature of the architect who did the original design, updates that have been done since the course was built, USGA Course and Slope Ratings, current local and national rankings by Golf Digest and Golfweek (as well as other authoritative sources), the quality and diversity of practice facilities, general course conditioning and current course reviews.

California boasts the highest number on the list with 12 courses among the Top 100 (6 in the Top 50), while South Carolina is close behind with 8 courses in the Top 100 (3 in Top 50).

North Carolina includes 6 courses in the Top 100 (4 in the Top 50), while Michigan, Indiana, Virginia and New York each have 5 public courses among the Top 100.
