A great modern course located northwest of Los Angeles, Rustic Canyon is a links-style course that opened in 2002, and it has already received several accolades for its quality. In 2005, Golfweek called Rustic Canyon the 63rd best course on their list of America's Top 100 Modern Golf Courses, and the 4th best public access course in California. Golf Digest ranked Rustic Canyon as the #1 Best New Affordable Public Course, in 2002, and Golf Magazine ranked this course #28 on their list of the Fifty Best Courses for $50 or Less, in 2004.
