About

Poppy Hills is a challenging golf course that weaves through the Del Monte Forest. The venue plays host to many prominent tournaments including the PGA Tour’s AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am up until the 2010 season. The course was featured in a Golf Magazine article about golf on the Monterey Peninsula as well as in Carmel Magazine.

The Zagat Survey ranked Poppy Hills the 12th “Most Popular Course” in the U.S, and the layout has been named “National Course of the Year” by the National Golf Course Owners Association.

The Robert Trent Jones Jr. design opened in 1986 and is the home course for the NCGA. It was the first course in the United States to be owned and operated by an amateur golf association. The NCGA continued to grow with the addition of a second course, Poppy Ridge in Livermore in 1996.
