Private Clubs & Country Clubs in Palos Verdes Estates

Palos Verdes Golf Club is a historic private club founded in 1924 as part of the original Palos Verdes planned community in Palos Verdes Estates, California. The 18-hole course was designed by George C. Thomas Jr. and William Bell, the celebrated duo behind Riviera Country Club and Bel-Air Country Club, and features natural barrancas, panoramic Pacific Ocean views, and a Spanish Colonial Revival clubhouse listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

Rolling Hills Country Club is a private 18-hole club set in the coastal hills of Palos Verdes Estates, California, its course uniquely carved from a former sand quarry. A 2017 redesign by David McLay Kidd — which introduced a rare dual-green system to Southern California — brought modern strategic depth while preserving the property's natural terrain and valleys. The club also hosted the 2015 U.S. Women's Amateur Championship, cementing its standing as one of the region's most accomplished private golf venues.
