Barona Creek Golf Club
Lakeside, CA — Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club's Ghost Creek course, a par-71, 6,839-yard layout, was crafted by Bob Cupp in the 'old' style, leaving the Portland wetlands terrain completely natural. Cupp's design philosophy for Ghost Creek embraced the existing landscape, resulting in a subtle yet cunning course with distinct and memorable holes framed by lush trees, dramatic mountain vistas, and ragged wetlands. The phantom Ghost Creek itself materializes throughout the course, enhancing its stunning beauty. The 17th hole, a 329-yard par-4, is considered a signature hole, offering a strategic challenge. Another instantly recognizable hole is the 7th, featuring grass mounds in the long fairway bunkers. Ghost Creek quickly established its formidable tournament capabilities, hosting the 1993 NIKE TOUR Championship and numerous other professional and amateur championships. Its excellent conditioning, variety of holes, and scenic setting make it one of the premier public access courses in the Northwest, offering a challenging yet rewarding experience for golfers.
