Think...Phil Mickelson growing-up in San Diego through Jr. Golf and High School, taking lessons, hitting balls and playing day after day...on Carlton Oaks Country Club. That's right, this is where Phil developed his significant golf skills. Besides being a fabulous golf course, Carlton Oaks is one of only a couple San Diego golf courses that are centrally located in San Diego county. It is a very short and convenient drive for visitors flying in and out of San Diego and trying to "squeeze-in" that first or last round! It's a 7,225 yard layout with creeks, lakes, railroad ties and pot bunkers all over the place! All those strategically placed hazards will entertain, challenge and reward your skills over a fun and relaxing round of golf and the five sets of tees will level the playing field for golfers of all abilities and experience. Try a "pre-round" Golf Lesson with one of their three experienced PGA Professionals on their two chipping and putting greens or driving range. After playing take a stroll through their well-stocked Pro Shop or relax and have drinks, lunch or dinner inside or outdoors on their Bar & Grille patio that provides a beautiful view of the golf course and setting sun.
