Bel-Air Country Club
U.S. Route 66, the “Mother Road” of which John Steinbeck wrote and Nat King Cole sang, was completed between Chicago and Los Angeles in 1926. Near the place where Route 66 came to an end and not long after it was completed, Bel-Air golf course opened right nearby; it is among the oldest of the Los Angeles Golf Courses. Ranked as one of the best golf courses in the U.S., Bel-Air offers challenging greens, but at a price: green fees currently top out at $125 for peak tee times. Bel-Air is hilly and not for the faint-of-heart; unless you are in exceptionally good physical condition, you’ll either want to hire a caddy or a golf cart. However, as one of the most scenic among Los Angeles Golf Courses, it’s definitely worth it.
