This is a very challenging course with great views of the countryside. The course was built in the coastal hills just east of Lompoc. The fairways are narrow to medium width with many irregular lies due to the hilly terrain. There are many shots either uphill or downhill from elevated tees to elevated greens. The greens are medium to large in size with some undulating and many subtle breaks. There are trees and brush lining the fairways with some of it coming into play, particularly on the back nine. There are several sand bunkers on the course, many on which are very deep, particularly the ones around the greens. In the afternoon the wind can start blowing, adding to the difficulty of the course. There are seven holes where ponds and streams are part of the design. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 61st best under the category of "America’s Top 75 Affordable Courses" in 1996. In addition, "Golf Digest" rated this course 60th best under the 1998 category of "Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the U.S." Fridays are included in the weekend green fee rates. The 5,763-yard ladies' tees also have a men's course rating of 67.9 and a slope of 119. Kenneth H. Hunter, Jr. developed this course, along with Hunter Ranch in Paso Robles and Sandpiper Golf Course in Goleta. All three courses have received recognition as outstanding courses.

La Purisma , Feb 16, 2009
reviewer: Mike from Vancouver
This is a beautiful couse located only 10 minutes outside of Lompoc. It is currently rated as the 33rd toughest course in the US by Golf Magazine. The course is tough, the greens are immaculate and lightning fast, and the wind plays. The course is kept pristine, with perfect greens and fairways, and the course has won greenskeeping industry awards. It has hosted well over a dozen US PGA and LPGA events, and I think some US open qualifiers. The information on the sheet here doesn't show the Black tee's which are some 7300 yards and placed in much tougher, course changing spots than the Blue. La Purisma offers unlimited play monthly memberships, in 2008 the fee was roughly $425 US. I played this course once or twice a day for a month and just could not get tired of it. A similar quality course in Vancouver would be $250 for a single round.

reviewer: Rod Ivy from Merced, CA
La Purisima is a challenging, fun, and sometimes hard golf course. Great Value for the course you get.
