Monday, 6/22, was our first private course event at Alta Vista CC. It was a big turnout of over 100 players on a beautiful day. I was impressed with the fun challenging layout providing a large variety elevation changes and doglegs. The course was in excellent condition tee to green. Greens rolled smooth, held shots and were moderately fast. Fairways were lush and groomed providing great lies all day. Rough was a challenging blend of Kikuyu/Bermuda, about 2 inches adjacent to the fairways and about 3 to 4 inches greenside. Tee boxes were level, lush and well groomed. The bunkers lagged in comparison to the rest of the course from a condition’s standpoint due to sand quality which I found to be mostly firm and a little crusty. Interesting characteristic about the bunkers is they are all filled to capacity with about 1-to-2-inch lips. It seems like you could putt out of them but the edges of the bunkers are all surrounded by 4 inch Kikuyu/Bermunda rough making it highly unadvisable.

For an event organizer standpoint, Alta Vista CC has a fantastic staging area. Driving range, practice putting, proshop, golf carts, bag-drop, clubhouse, snack bar, parking and first tee box are all conveniently located for your group. With their excellent outside services and well-organized staging area, our group thoroughly enjoyed their pre-round experience. Plus, it made it easy for us organizers to check-in and keep track of our players.
I just posted some photos. The course looks even better in person.

It was a great day teeing up with GKers rgm2525, sparky14 and Itslikeimsayin who helped with the event!

I highly recommend Alta Vista CC for golf events and those interested in memberships.

We will be back!
