The Preserve Golf Club Santa Lucia ☆ Follow

The Preserve Golf Club is a private 18-hole championship course designed by renowned architect Tom Fazio, located on the Santa Lucia Preserve's 20,000-acre property near Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. Set in a pastoral landscape ringed by mountains and largely free from development, the course offers a serene and visually stunning experience. The design leverages the natural terrain and sweeping vistas characteristic of the Central Coast, with each hole described as a postcard-quality view and greens designed as rewards for play. The course presents a beautifully challenging layout that consistently ranks in the top 100 private courses nationally. Fazio's design emphasizes the interplay between the dramatic landscape and strategic golf, creating a sophisticated playing experience. Membership is available to both residents of the Santa Lucia Preserve community and non-residents, with national memberships also offered. The course serves as the centerpiece of the Preserve's golf amenities within this exclusive, conservation-focused residential community.
