Whitney Oaks

Aside from the exceptional level of service we provide our guests, Whitney Oaks is a true Northern California gem and a dream course for any golfer. Professional golf legend Johnny Miller and Santa Rosa architect Fred Bliss designed this challenging 6,800-yard course where water or wetlands come into play on every hole.

Whitney Oaks Golf Club has a rich and varied history - and that's before it was ever considered a place to play golf. It stretches across a swath of California land that could represent the quintessential rugged Western landscape.

Before the western migration brought on by Western Hemisphere explorers followed by the Gold Rush, the area was populated by the native Maidu culture's Nisenan, which hunted game and fish, gathered nuts, seeds and roots.George Whitney established the Whitney Ranch in 1857 when he purchased 320 acres of grazing land west of downtown Rocklin to run a special crossbreed of Australian and California sheep.

Thousands of majestic live oaks, an abundance of well-placed bunkers, enormous granite outcroppings and an ever-changing topography highlight this challenging championship layout amid wetlands that are home to various species of indigenous wildlife. Owned and operated by the United Auburn Indian Community, Whitney Oaks is recognized as "Best of the Best" by readers of the Auburn Journal.

Inside our clubhouse is a great place to eat after playing 18, a work day, a romantic dinner for two, or a weekend brunch. From appetizers to full-plated dinners like prime rib or the day's fresh catch, the menu features plenty of mouth-watering choices - any day of the week.

Named after a historical pyramid-shaped granite cairn situated 100 yards west of the 11th green, the Pyramid Bar & Grill provides the perfect place to relax and reflect after a day on the links.Enjoy unique cocktails and craft beers from our full-service bar, while from any seat you can view the final holes with Rocklin's scenic hillsides forming the backdrop.

From facilities to catering to impeccable service, Whitney Oaks offers the perfect venue to make any occasion one to cherish. Together, our clubhouse's two banquet rooms can comfortably seat up to 200 guests, along with a fully stocked bar and lounge. An expansive terrace with seating overlooks our outdoor event space near the foot of the 18th green.
