I need to thank Jon for reminding me to do this. A few months ago I reported to you about public golf courses ranked 13-24 according to Golfer’s World magazine and since they’ve finally posted their top 12, I’m ready to pass them over to you. I find it strange that there are no New England golf courses represented on this list. In fact, the only one from the East Coast at all is number six, Kiawah Island Ocean Course in South Carolina, which I’ve been to, and which truly is worthy of it’s placement there. I’m just surprised there aren’t more East Coast chart toppers.
Anyways, enjoy the list, and hopefully I’ll make it to all of these, one day so I can give more first hand experience…
- Pacific Dunes – Bandon, Oregon
- Links at Spanish Bay – Pebble Beach, California
- Pebble Beach Golf Links – Pebble Beach, California
- Bandon Dunes Golf Resort & Course – Bandon, Oregon
- Whistling Straits Golf Club – Kohler, Wisconsin
- Kiawah Island – Ocean Course – South Carolina
- Shadow Creek – North Las Vegas, Nevada
- Kauai Lagoon Golf Club – Kiele Course – Lihue, Hawaii
- Reflection Bay Golf Club & Course – Lake Las Vegas, Nevada
- Spyglass Hill Golf Club – Pebble Beach, California
- Troon North Monument – Scottsdale, Arizona
- Red Sky Ranch – Wolcott, Colorado
Looks like I need to start planning some vacations to Vegas , Pebble Beach, and Bandon, Oregon

New England is poised to put on quite a Fall Foliage display this year – Fall 2009. Hurricane Bill has passed with minor damage – the leaves are still on the trees waiting for the autumn weather to arrive. Its just around the corner – by mid-September, the show starts at the higher elevations. As in the past, we have to stay flexible – we suggest visiting our friends at Foliage Network for the latest Fall Foliage Reports. The best fall foliage viewing in the US is in New England (fans of the golden Colorado fall colors may disagree), so we will pick from these destinations for a few weekend “Fall Foliage Staycations” this year:
Have a fun fallstaycation! Save some vacation time for ski season.
