Troon selected to manage Northern California club

Troon announced it has been selected to manage Castlewood Country Club, a private club located in Pleasanton, Calif..

Known for its rich history dating back to 1886, along with an ideal location set high above the Livermore Valley and protected by the hills from fog and wind, Castlewood Country Club offers members and guests the ideal setting for an active lifestyle.

Castlewood Country Club features 36-holes, the Hill Course designed by William P. Bell in 1926 and the Valley Course built 28 years later in 1954. Straight tee shots and fine-tuned short games are a must on the Hill Course. The layout begins from the Castlewood’s main clubhouse and meanders around the hillside offering spectacular views of the valley below. The Valley Course is a challenge not because of the elevation changes but because of its length, topography, and fast greens. This walking-friendly layout offers a combination of accessible fairways along with challenging par fours.

“Castlewood Country Club is an exceptional private facility with a long history of offering its members a unique and desirable lifestyle,” said Jim McLaughlin, senior vice president, Troon Privé operations. “We are honored to have been selected by them and are confident that our management practices will contribute positively to the experience of members and their guests.” 

"Castlewood Country Club, its members and board of directors, are pleased to be a part of the Troon Privé family of clubs,” said Rick Hammel, club president. “We look forward to availing ourselves of all the benefits Troon provides."
