Lake Arrowhead Country Club

The mountain air at 5,100 feet elevation adds serious carry to every shot, but these tree-lined fairways demand precision over power through the San Bernardino National Forest. Elevated tees reveal dramatic vistas of the surrounding peaks, while the back nine's roller-coaster terrain tests every club in the bag with steep elevation changes that can fool even scratch players. This high-altitude gem rewards course management and local knowledge—the pine-scented rough is unforgiving, but the views from the 14th tee make every errant shot worth it.
