About Contra Costa Country Club
Contra Costa Country Club is a private club in Pleasant Hill with roots dating to 1925. Its 18-hole course was originally designed by A. Vernon Macan, one of the era’s respected architects, and has recently been reimagined by Robert Trent Jones Jr. — a modern restoration that respects Macan’s original 1925 intent while adding new bunkering and an upgraded practice facility.
Playing to par 72 with a slope around 133, the course is regarded as one of the purer tests of golf in Northern California, combining classic strategic lines with refreshed conditioning. Mature trees and gently rolling terrain frame a layout that rewards shot-making over raw length.
The club pairs golf with a full country-club experience — dining, event and banquet space, and a welcoming, family-oriented membership. Course operations are managed by Troon. Play is reserved for members and their guests; there is no public tee-time access, though event spaces can be booked for occasions such as weddings.
