Bishop Country Club & Golf Course
Just south of town on Hwy 395 in Bishop, California,
the semi-private country club offers an enjoyable and
challenging par 71, 18-hole golf course, open to the
public. The course is open year round and provides all
the amenities the avid golfer could want. Water hazards
come into play on 13 of the holes. The greens are well-manicured
and of medium speed. Views of the surrounding Sierra
Nevada mountains are spectacular.
Furnace Creek Golf Course
This 18-hole course is the world's lowest golf course
at 214 feet below sea level, and is an oasis championship
course. This is great California desert resort golf!
A unique golf vacation and ideal winter getaway. Due
to the elevation of the course, a slightly greater gravity
and barometric pressure force are present. Frequent
golfers have noticed a distinct difference in how the
ball responds in relation to other courses at or above
sea level.
