T
he Avila Beach Golf Resort is the most well-known of the Central Coast Golf Courses, and a wholly-unique golf experience for each of their guests. Designed by Olin Dutra and Desmond Muirhead, Avila opened for play in 1969, and is located 3 miles off Highway 101, south of San Luis Obispo and northwest of Pismo Beach. Nestled in the surrounding hills and on the edge of San Luis Obispo Bay, Avila Beach is a par-72, 6,500-yard course that features kikuyu grass fairways (think Riviera CC) and quick, classic bentgrass greens. The front nine is situated on hilly terrain with small, often-elevated greens within oak-lined valleys. The back nine transverses a tidal estuary, with several forced carries over the water and multilevel greens to test golfers will and skill. Golfers of all abilities should enjoy the challenge of this scenic course on the Central California Coast.
