Is Camp Evangelista Golf Club open to the public, or is it for military personnel only?
You're in luck - while it's on a military base, Camp Evangelista Golf Club is absolutely open to the public. Just be prepared for a quick security check at the gate; it's a small price to pay for access to this local gem. We found the process straightforward and the staff welcoming.
What's the actual playing experience like at Camp Evangelista - are the greens well-maintained?
Don't expect pristine, resort-level perfection here; Camp Evangelista offers a more rustic, honest golf experience.

It's a fun, straightforward layout that rewards accurate shots over brute strength.
When is the best time of year to play a round at Camp Evangelista Golf Club?
We highly recommend visiting during the dry season, typically from November to May, for the most comfortable play. You'll avoid the heavy downpours that can make the course quite soggy and humid during the rainy months. Early mornings are always best to beat the heat, no matter the season.

The atmosphere here is wonderfully laid-back and distinctly local - it feels like a true community course.
