PEACOCK GAP GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB (1960)

 

BAY AREA REGION

Semi-Private - 18 hole - cost: $34 - $49

333 Biscayne Drive, San Rafael, CA 94901

Tel: (415) 453-4940 

 

Designed by William F. Bell. Avoiding lateral water hazards, fourteen of them, and trees will be your biggest challenge. Twelve holes run parallel to a small creek. There is one lake, and San Francisco Bay comes into play on one hole. On some holes, if you miss the fairways far enough, you will land in another; however, the mature trees won't make your return shot easy. The greens are straightforward with little break. Reciprocal play with other members-only clubs is allowed. From San Francisco (about 20 miles north to the course): Go north on US 101. Take the Central San Rafael exit. Turn right on Second Street. Turn left on Biscayne Drive.
