Woven through the breath-taking Livermore Valley Wine Country, this incredible course is comprised of three distinct nines and spread across 3,000 acres. Poppy Ridge is legendary for its beauty, ruggedness, and challenge. It put the NCGA on the map as the first United States regional golf association to own and operate two different courses.
