Overview: Santa Anita Golf Course is a historic and lushly landscaped municipal masterpiece located in the shadow of the San Gabriel Mountains in Arcadia. Designed by the legendary Jack Fleming—a long-time associate of Alister MacKenzie—and opened in 1935, the course is a model of "Golden Age" architecture. Characterized by its wide fairways, mature stands of landscaping, and exceptionally smooth putting surfaces, the layout meanders through a landscape of gentle elevation changes and natural topography. The course provides a nostalgic and technical round that rewards precision and thoughtful club selection, preserving a serene and "oasis-like" atmosphere in the heart of the community.
