Frequently Asked Questions
How challenging is St Michael's Golf Club for an average golfer?
Don't let the stunning ocean views fool you- St Michael's is a proper test of golf. The coastal winds are a constant factor, demanding precise shot-making and smart club selection, especially on the exposed back nine where every shot feels magnified.
When is the best time of year to play St Michael's Golf Club?
We recommend playing St Michael's in the shoulder seasons- spring (September-November) or autumn (March-May)- for the most pleasant conditions. You'll avoid the peak summer heat and humidity, and while the wind is always a factor, it can be slightly less ferocious than in winter.
What are the must-play holes or signature views at St Michael's?
You absolutely can't miss the stretch from the 5th to the 7th, where the course truly hugs the coastline, offering breathtaking Pacific Ocean vistas. The par-3 7th, in particular, demands a confident strike over a chasm to a green perched precariously near the cliffs- it's a true postcard moment.
Is St Michael's Golf Club open to the public, and how far in advance should I book?
While St Michael's is a private club, they do welcome visitors on specific days, usually weekdays and some Sunday afternoons. We strongly advise booking your tee time at least 2-4 weeks in advance, especially if you're aiming for a popular slot, as it fills up quickly.
What's the vibe like at the clubhouse after a round at St Michael's?
After battling the elements on the course, the St Michael's clubhouse offers a wonderfully relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Grab a cold drink on the balcony overlooking the 18th green and the ocean- it's the perfect spot to recount your birdies (and bogeys) with your playing partners.
