Origins

Tijeras Creek was developed in Rancho Santa Margarita as a public course designed by Ted Robinson Sr and opened in October 1990.

Did You Know?
The course's two nines were deliberately shaped around markedly different terrain: water-oriented opening holes followed by a more elevated back nine.

Design Philosophy

Robinson used water prominently on three holes of the outward nine, then allowed the inward nine to follow steeper natural ground through mature sycamores, oaks and chaparral.

Development

The club has continued to update its practice and hospitality operation, including the addition of Toptracer technology to the range.

Recognition

The 16th hole has been selected for the Southern California PGA's collection of Orange County's Best 18 Holes.

Today

Tijeras Creek remains a public Arcis Golf facility with online daily-fee play, instruction, practice facilities, dining and events.
