My first visit to Half-moon Bay in late September of 96...had me hooked.

Coming in from 280, with a cool fog in the air and passing all of the farms with the plethora of displays of pumpkins...was truly magical.

Back then there was only one 18 hole course and while the front nine looked a lot like Orange Blossom here, the 'new' (at that time) back nine along the ocean...was awesome.

The last visit we stayed at the R-C for few nights and played all 36...and it just doesn't get much better than that.
