Nothing calms the soul more than being surrounded by picturesque scenery.  Having a constant view of the Pacific Ocean with its magnificent sweep and bluffs as you are playing a round of golf can do more for a sports enthusiast than lift their soul, it can also improve their game.  In Southern California, the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course delivers this experience to golfers that visit their course.  Located just 28 miles North of San Diego and directly South of Carlsbad, the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course never has a frost delay, mainly due to it’s beautiful coastal setting.

The Encinitas Ranch Golf Course is a hidden gem and golfers appreciate this Southern California golf course layout because of its golf amenities, which includes

five sets of tees, open fairways, and bunkers. Everyone has a chance to post their low score when they play Encinitas Ranch!

“We zipped up from San Diego for an early quick round. The guys at the Scotty Cameron store encouraged us to try this course and we were so happy that we did! Very interesting layout. Great variety of shots. Nice greens. Gorgeous ocean views! The starter was great and gave us a few very helpful hints for the round. Friendly staff in the clubhouse and bar. We will take advantage of the JC Golf program next time we’re in the San Diego area for more than a week! What a really nice course!!”

The front nine are known for being exceptionally forgiving to overly optimistic shot attempts, but our Encinitas golf course never punishes its players. After players make a turn, the fun begins as elevation changes throughout the course present exciting new challenges.

The Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, in addition to an award winning golf course, also features a complete golf shop that stocks the latest in golf equipment and golf apparel.  For those who want to improve their game golf, instruction and clinics are offered by PGA & LPGA Professionals. And after you have mastered your game you can even participate in a golf tournament!

If you are visiting the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course and others in your party are not golfers, don’t despair!  The Golf Course is located conveniently near three shopping areas; La Costa Town Square, Moonlight Plaza Shopping Center and the Carlsbad Premium Outlets.  Everyone will be happy! If you’ve overdone yourself while roaming the golf course you are in luck!  One of the best chiropractic offices in Encinitas, Innate Health and Healing, is located a mere 2 miles away south of the golf course.
