Established 1927: Corica Park



Recently my wife Linda and friends played the new $20 million renovation in Alameda called Corica Park. From our home in Danville it is a 45-minute drive. This track established in 1927 was recently renovated by famous golf course designer Rees Jones. 

The cooler temperatures in Alameda make for a pleasant golfing day.

As part of the renovation, there is a nine-hole par 3 course rated in the top 13 in America. It is great for practice or for a quick round.
 
The South course is the only Sand belt Australian style course in the San Francisco Bay Area.

It has a selection of tees to challenge all golfing skills. Linda found the ladies tees to be very fair and friendly. New Yamaha golf carts have GPS to help you with your yardages. The greens are in great condition, large and very fast.

For lunch we ate at Jim’s on the course.  They have a wide variety of reasonably priced food and drinks.

Bottom line, Corica Park is worth a visit to experience the rich history that renowned architect Rees Jones has brought back to life.
