Gentleman's at Hacienda Golf Club

Hacienda Golf Club, a bastion of classic Southern California golf, exudes a charm rooted in its decades as a haven for a diverse and passionate membership. Carved into the rolling hills of La Habra Heights, this parkland course, born of the Golden Age, presents a traditional test; generous fairways reward bold drives, while strategically placed bunkers and subtly undulating greens force thoughtful approach shots. The routing favors a right-to-left ball flight, rewarding players who can shape their shots with precision, and its charm is more casual than many private clubs in the area.

Designed in 1920 by William F. Bell, Hacienda’s layout has stood the test of time, largely untouched by extensive modern renovations and eschewing the trends of longer and harder courses. This makes it eminently walkable and player-friendly.

While not a fixture on the professional tournament circuit, Hacienda is a course beloved by its members for its community. The club has a reputation for a laid-back atmosphere where the focus is on enjoying the game and company. A particular point of pride is their robust junior program, nurturing the next generation of golfers.

Hacienda remains a respected course in the Southern California landscape, a place where tradition and camaraderie outweigh the spotlight, making it a true golfer's club.
