About this course

La Contenta Golf Club is a semi-private 18-hole course in Valley Springs, California, in the Sierra foothills of Calaveras County's Gold Country, about 35 miles east of Stockton. Designed by Richard Bigler, the course opened in 1973 and plays to 6,141 yards and a par of 72 from the back tees.

Out-of-bounds stakes line fourteen holes and water comes into play on nine, with the signature 13th hole dropping about 100 feet from tee to a green nearly surrounded by water. The layout offers wide views of the surrounding foothills throughout the round.

The club is open to public play in addition to members, with a pro shop and an on-site restaurant, the Bar & Grill, serving golfers before and after rounds.
