San Francisco | Presidio Golf Course with Golden Gate Bridge Views ⛳️
Packed my clubs for a West Coast golf trip, and the first stop was Presidio Golf Course—a scenic 3+ star (Where2Golf-rated) course nestled in northern SF where you can spot the Golden Gate Bridge between swings! The unique location serves up a mix of ocean fog and mountain breezes, making every hole feel like an adventure. 🏡 Course Vibes Surrounded by a charming neighborhood with classic old-school architecture (think: picturesque "classic Americana"). Clubhouse food was a win—we even stumbled upon a wedding party celebrating on the greens! 🥂 ⛳️ Fairway Highlights Wider and flatter than expected, with gentle slopes (great for beginners!). Local lore: Our Korean playing partner insisted this course is "one of SF’s most punishing"—but with her tips + the cart’s GPS, I didn’t lose a single ball (rare for me!). Minimal rangefinder use: The layout feels intuitive once you adjust to the subtle elevation changes. 🌬️ Weather Woes Windy, foggy, and chilly (20°C in late Sept—down jacket required by sunset!). Pro tip: Layer up! Fashion takes a backseat to warmth here. 👯♀️ Best Part? The Gossip! My playing partner—a lovely Korean auntie—spent 18 holes spilling tea about her daughter’s love life. Verdict? She’s not a fan of the daughter’s American boyfriend and is rooting for a Chinese son-in-law ("I heard Chinese husbands treat their wives so well!"). Proof that golf + girl talk = instant friendship. 💬 #GolfLife #PresidioGolf #GoldenGateGolf #GolfTravel #WestCoastSwing #GolfCourseViews
