Los Angeles Golf Guide
L.A. is famous for many things: Smog, traffic, beaches, moviemaking and, well, famous people who are involved in the moviemaking business. So travelers visiting Los Angeles for the first time are pretty much obligated to hit the tourist locations: They should gawk at the hand- and footprints of famous people outside of Grauman's Chinese Theatre, fight the bumper-to-bumper traffic while cruising the vibrant Sunset Strip, head north on Pacific Coast Highway to take in the gorgeous coastline, get a tan on any of the miles of beaches or brave the ocean surf. And they should allow themselves plenty of time to peruse the Los Angeles County Museum of Art complex, which includes the historic La Brea Tar Pits.
Yet after they've sipped coffee with a movie star in either of the Starbucks in downtown Malibu, tourists may want to slip on their soft spikes so they can play Malibu Golf Club, an open-to-the-public William Francis Bell design that features so much up and down that it can be confused with a roller-coaster, albeit a roller-coaster with fantastic greens.
Once they are back in L.A. proper, golfers may be tempted to play one or more of the numerous public city and county courses. And although all three courses in Griffith Park and the great-long-ago Rancho Park Golf Course receive tons of play, who wants to stand around while playing a five-and-a-half-hour round? A far better bet is to head to the Angeles National Forest to play the only Nicklaus Design course in Los Angeles County, Angeles National Golf Club. This stellar brute has earned plenty of distinctions and is well worth the 30-minute drive from downtown L.A.

Ojai Valley Inn
The world-class Ojai Country Club was one of the first great golf courses in Southern California. Designed and originally built in 1923 under the direction of George C. Thomas, Jr. and Billy Bell, the course was hailed as "a marvel of golfing architecture." Thomas, who also designed courses at the Riviera, Bel-Air and Los Angeles country clubs, had two initial considerations for the Ojai course: "...that the average golfer could enjoy his round without too great a penalty, and that a test must be afforded requiring the low-handicap man to play fine golf in order to secure pars."
