Black Gold Golf Club

Black Gold Golf Club is a municipal course in Yorba Linda, California, designed by Arthur Hills and playing to par 72 across 18 holes from 4,937 to 6,756 yards. The layout moves through rolling hills with elevation changes, water features, and strategic bunkering. Hole 18 finishes at a green with a waterfall, an arrangement that has drawn repeated recognition — including a 2015 editors' pick for Best 18th Hole and a #2 ranking for Best 18th Hole in Southern California that same year. Golf Digest rates the course 4½ stars in its Best Places to Play, and it holds a #1 ranking for Best Golf Courses in Anaheim (2024). Hole19 golfers rate it 4.5, and it is a popular round among Hole19 golfers in California. Practice options include a lighted driving range with 26 artificial turf stations and five green targets with sand bunkers — recognized as a Top 50 Driving Range by the Golf Range Association of America from 2012 to 2025 — plus practice greens for putting, chipping, and bunker play. The 20,000-square-foot clubhouse includes an award-winning 1,400-square-foot golf shop, men's and women's locker rooms, and banquet facilities seating up to 220 guests.
