About Cypress Point Club

Beyond the famous oceanside dramatics lies MacKenzie's subtler genius through the inland holes, where every green contour and bunker placement reveals his understanding of strategic options. The cypress trees lean permanently eastward from decades of coastal winds, framing approach shots that have humbled scratch players and tour professionals alike. What surprises most first-time visitors is how the inland holes through the forest prove equally memorable.
