SAN MARTIN, Calif. (September 11, 2008) – CordeValle, A Rosewood Resort, proudly announces its ranking among the “Top 100 Courses You Can Play” in the September 2008 issue of Golf Magazine, the foremost publication for golf enthusiasts. This honor follows closely on the heels of CordeValle’s recognition in Golf Digest Index as one of the “World’s 50 Best Golf Hotels,” including top rankings for service, rooms, and wine and drinks (Spring 2008).
“Being included in Golf Magazine and other industry rankings of top courses affirms what we know about the extraordinary golf experience our members and resort guests are treated to at CordeValle – a well-designed course and personalized service,” said Director of Golf Operations Travis Skeesick. “We are extremely pleased to be in the company of so many outstanding golf courses.”
Golf Magazine arrived at its listing of Top 100 golf courses through the recommendations of a panel that included editorial staff as well as well-traveled golfers. Writer Joe Passov describes the common characteristic of the golf courses selected as “…among the best public golf experiences your money can buy.”
Designed by internationally acclaimed course designer Robert Trent Jones, Jr., and situated in the foothills of San Martin, the award-winning, 18-hole course enjoys the picturesque California countryside as its backdrop. Jones has called the course at CordeValle one of the finest creations of his career.
