Our Borrego Springs home is in the de Anza neighborhood of Borrego Springs and situated on the de Anza Golf Course.
It's a beautiful desert course built in the 1950's. 6,778-yard par 72 layout.
Challenging but perfect for golfers of all levels, I appreciate that rounds can be played at your own pace. My husband loves being able to hop on without a tee time most of the year.
After his first rounds at de Anza, my brother-in-law proclaimed that he could play the course the rest of his life and be happy. There are many Borrego Springs residents that do just that.
There are other fine golf course options in Borrego Springs, including the Springs at Borrego 9 hole course and Borrego Springs Resort's 18.
I've had a couple of productive, fun lessons with our de Anza neighbor - Martha Mitchell, LPGA Golf Professional and Len Collett is also available for lessons through de Anza Country Club.
The club pro, Tom Rogers, gives lessons too. Tom splits his time between Borrego Springs' de Anza Golf Course (for the Winter season) and Park City’s Private Golf Club and Residential Community Promontory, where he is Director of Golf during the Spring/Summer.

If you're looking for a peaceful, relaxed get-away or golfing experience, de Anza Country Club and its neighborhood private home rentals should be on the top of your list!
Fun fact: It's not unusual to see a dozen or more bighorn sheep on the course mid-morning munching the green stuff.
Fun fact: The club allows well-behaved dogs with responsible owners to walk along the sides of the course before and after the course is open. Doggie heaven and VERY Borrego Springs!
