About the Course
The par 72, 6,276-yard Copper River Country Club Copper River Country Club is a masterpiece in California's San Joaquin Valley created by Fresnan William R. Tatham Sr. The golf course was completed and opened for play in the spring of 1995. One year later, Mr. Tatham completed the 30,000 square foot clubhouse and related facilities, and dedicated them to the use and enjoyment of the members in April, 1996. The Copper River Clubhouse is a model of casual style. Spanish courtyard fountains and arched walkways create an atmosphere of old California. Inside, you will find stately banquet halls and meeting rooms, a lounge, grill and an elegant dining room. Members also have access to the state-of-the-art fitness center, world-class tennis facilities, and pool pavilion, all surrounded by the gorgeous championship golf course. Renowned Carmel Architect David Pfaff carefully designed the highly regarded 18-hole course, weaving it through the foothills and providing a beautiful and challenging experience for golfers of every handicap range.
