El Niguel Country Club, in Orange County, California, is a top-tier private golf club located less than a mile from the coast and its beautiful beaches. The 18-hole El Niguel course is well regarded among professional players and enthusiasts alike for its scenic beauty and is considered one of the best Southern California golf courses out there.

The club first opened for play in 1963 and several different course architects have added their own unique touches to the beautiful layout such as the “King of Waterholes” Ted Robinson, Sr., his son, Ted Robinson, Jr., and David W. Kent. In 2018, Todd Eckenrode gave El Niguel Country Club a major facelift bringing the par 72 championship layout into the modern era.

El Niguel Country Club has a variety of tee boxes to suit players of all calibers and, at 7,208-yards from the longest tees, will test even the most experienced players. With Kikuyu grass fairways and Bent grass greens the course is always kept in excellent condition making for consistently high-quality play that’s visually stunning to both players and spectators.

El Niguel’s practice facilities include a driving range and putting green designed according to USGA specifications and the club also has its own golf school academy staffed with PGA-certified professionals who conduct group clinics as well as one-on-one coaching sessions. Finally, El Niguel Country Club’s bar and restaurant is the perfect spot to relax with a few drinks after a round or enjoy a delicious meal with friends. The clubhouse is also available for hire as a function venue and can provide excellent banquet facilities for private events.

El Niguel Country Club

El Niguel Country Club is a private country club community located in Laguna Niguel. It is also one of the rare private golf clubs in Orange County and one of the best in Southern California. Even though it is a non-residential country club, the club and its magnificent layout are surrounded by several residential neighborhoods which are considered part of the El Niguel Country Club golf community.

The 18-hole layout at the community’s heart was heavily renovated in 2018, with Todd Eckenrode at the helm of the course’s significant design overhaul. The country club’s Craftsman-style clubhouse includes a wonderful bar and restaurant that offers a full menu with varied specialties and has a celebrated wine culture that features world-class choices as well as a great domestic selection.

El Niguel Country Club has a nice view of the Pacific Ocean on the drive in and of the surrounding canyon mountains. Many of the golf homes also get to enjoy direct golf course views which adds to the luxurious feel and tranquil ambience of the community’s single-family golf homes.
