About River Course at the Alisal

The River Course at the Alisal is a scenic public layout in the heart of the Santa Ynez Valley wine country near Solvang, routed along the banks of the Alisal River through ancient sycamore and oak groves. The course is part of the legendary Alisal Guest Ranch, a working cattle ranch that has hosted visitors since 1946, and it retains the authentic ranch character that makes Solvang's wine country corridor so special. The river-bottom setting, towering trees, and pastoral landscape create one of the most beautiful golf environments on California's Central Coast. It's a genuine escape into wine country that plays as memorably as it looks.

History

The River Course at the Alisal was developed as part of the Alisal Guest Ranch, which has operated as a working cattle ranch and guest resort since 1946. The course was designed to complement the ranch experience, routing play through the river corridor that bisects the ranch property. The Alisal has been a beloved Santa Ynez Valley destination for decades.
