Santa Ynez Golf Course - River Course

Open since 1992, the River Course at the Alisal enhances the tradition of naturally secluded golf carried on for so many years by the Alisal Ranch Course. Contrasting in style and setting from the Ranch Course, the River Course maintains an atmosphere of quiet escape by immersing the player in a serene riverside setting framed by the uninterrupted panorama of the Santa Ynez Mountains. The River Course offers a full range of golf-related services including a variety of practice facilities, professional instruction, tournament package plans, a fully stocked pro shop and one of the area’s most distinguished restaurants.
