Contra Costa Country Club

Overview: Contra Costa Country Club is a historic and impeccably restored private jewel located in Pleasant Hill, California. Originally designed by the legendary Arthur Vernon Macan in 1925 and later modernized by Robert Muir Graves, the course underwent a landmark restoration by Robert Trent Jones II in 2015. The modern layout is characterized by its wide, rolling fairways, majestic stands of mature oaks, and exceptionally smooth putting surfaces that emphasize strategic approach angles. The course meanders through a landscape of natural ridges and valleys, offering a quiet and serene environment that captures the classic "Golden Age" spirit of Northern California.

Did You Know? Arthur Vernon Macan was one of the most influential architects of the early 20th century, known for his "player-friendly" but strategically deep routing; the 2015 RTJ II restoration focused on returning the course to Macan’s original vision while modernizing the bunkering and irrigation to meet world-class championship standards.
