Built on the site of a 100-yard-old marble quarry, Oak Quarry presents some terrific golf amidst magnificent views. Hidden just off an exit ramp on the way from L.A. to Palm Springs, this course is a thrill ride with bouncy, big-shouldered fairways framed by white-granite cliffs that amaze almost as much as they antagonize. —Mike Stachura

In 1921, George Thomas designed the original nine at Red Hill, located about 40 miles east of downtown L.A. A couple decades later in the mid-1940s, Thomas’ longtime design partner Billy Bell added a second nine at Red Hill. In 2020, Casey O’Callaghan led a complete bunker renovation, bringing back the original shapes and locations used by Thomas and Bell. Even though Red Hill is under 6,600 yards, it’s a ball-strikers track, with narrow tree-lined fairways that bank in different directions and small greens that demand precise approaches.
