Yosemite Lakes Park Golf Course sits in Coarsegold, California, in the Sierra Nevada foothills roughly fifteen miles south of the entrance to Yosemite National Park. The course was designed by Bob E. Baldock and Robert L. Baldock, a father-son team responsible for numerous layouts across California from the mid-twentieth century onward. The Baldocks typically worked within the natural terrain available, creating courses that balanced playability for everyday golfers with strategic interest derived from the land itself. The routing at Yosemite Lakes Park takes advantage of the rolling, forested terrain characteristic of the region. Elevation changes and stands of pine and oak frame many holes, and the layout incorporates natural water features that come into play on several holes. The course serves both resort guests staying at the Yosemite Lakes Park development and outside visitors, functioning as a recreational amenity in a mountain community setting. The facility operates as part of a larger residential and RV resort complex, offering a relatively accessible golf experience for travelers heading to or from Yosemite. The setting provides mountain air and views of the surrounding Sierra foothills, and the course reflects the Baldocks' approach of fitting golf into the existing landscape without extensive earthmoving. It remains a regional option for golfers seeking a round in the Yosemite gateway area, where golf courses are relatively sparse given the mountainous geography.
