Just 90 minutes from Los Angeles and an hour from San Diego or Orange County, Temecula Valley is becoming one of Southern California’s most appealing golf destinations, especially for travelers who want more than just a great course.
With a Mediterranean climate and nearly year-round playability, Temecula’s golf scene blends championship-level fairways with scenic vineyard views and post-round perks like wine tastings, spa time, and chef-driven dining. Top courses like Journey at Pechanga, CrossCreek Golf Club, and Temecula Creek Inn sit minutes from boutique wineries and luxury stays.
And the timing couldn’t be better! Industry forecasts expect the global golf tourism market to grow at around 9% annually from 2025 onward, driven by rising demand for travel experiences that combine sport, culture, and relaxation. Fall is an ideal season to visit, with mild weather, fewer crowds, and vibrant vineyard views.
