About this course
Rams Hill is a desert golf course in Borrego Springs, California, in the Anza-Borrego Desert near the Santa Rosa Mountains. Built in the early 1980s as a Ted Robinson design, the course was redesigned in 2007 by Tom Fazio, who reshaped the bunkering and routed holes up and back down a rocky ridgeline. The par-72 layout plays 7,232 yards from the tips with a slope rating of 141, and five sets of tees suit a range of skill levels. Elevation changes throughout the round open up views of the surrounding mountains and valley floor. The finishing hole is a par 5 that plays downhill to a lake-lined fairway before an uphill approach to a bunkered green.

Native grasses and wildflowers line the fairways, which cover about 60 acres of turf.
San Vicente Golf Resort
Ramona, CA · 32 mi away
San Vicente sits in the hills of Ramona, about 40 minutes inland from San Diego, on a wooded property surrounded by a residential community. Ted Robinson designed the course, which opened in 1972, and it has stayed close to that original routing. The golf is old-fashioned in a good way: tree-lined corridors of mature oaks and pines, elevation change that gives you downhill tee shots and uphill approaches, and water in play on a handful of holes. It is not long, and the challenge is angles and position rather than raw distance. The inland setting means warmer, drier days than the coast and less marine layer. The resort has cottages and villas on site, and the course is set up for guests and daily-fee play, which makes it a straightforward option for a group staying outside the city. Rates and availability come from the resort directly.
