La Contenta Golf Club

Experience an inescapably beautiful design at a semi-private venue with today's feature: $24 for 18 Holes with Cart at La Contenta Golf Club in Valley Springs ($50 Value. Expires October 1, 2015!)

Perhaps named for its ability to leave its guests "content" and happy with their experience, La Contenta Golf Club features a timeless design that makes the course a model of consistency. For over 35 years, La Contenta has been one of the best semi-private facilities in all of Northern California.

The topography of the "Gold Country" plot occupied by La Contenta grants a unique opportunity to blend rolling terrain with dramatic drop-offs and low fairways. Course architect Richard Bigler, a veteran designer specialized with just such a canvas, has transformed the landscape into a layout full of challenge and beauty.

Notable holes include the one-two punch of the par-3 No. 2 and the par-5 No. 3. No. 2 is more than 100 yards of forced-carry over gleaming water. Getting by with a par opens up the possibilities for No. 3, where a good tee shot puts you in range for a relatively easy green-in-two. The signature hole No. 13, also a par-3, is 185 yards — not taking the dramatic two-club drop-off.

Before or after your round, take advantage of the great view offered from the patio of the Vista Grille. Classic American fare and ice-cold beverages are yours to enjoy while soaking in the fading sunlight.

So, take this opportunity to revel in contentment at the one-and-only La Contenta Golf Club!
