“The Ocean South actually gets to the ocean - something the Ocean North never quite does. Despite the hilly terrain, Tom Fazio does quite a bit of good work here. Some nice framing using the tall eucalyptus trees on the property. The course is pricey, but pricing is variable. Try a weekday twilight and it won't break the bank. The clubhouse, proshop and resort facilities all add to the high-end feel of the place."

“Definitely not a cheap round of golf. But the resort, course and ambiance is that of most top country clubs. Great practice facility and amazing food and staff"
