Cold Spring Tavern
Here is a question for visitors to Santa Barbara- - Where can you go and have stunning views of the Santa Ynez River Valley over looking Lake Cachuma? - Where you can play a challenging 6800 yard, Par 71 golf Robert Trent Jones, Jr. golf course? The answer is Rancho San Marcos - And when you play golf at Rancho San Marcos don't be surprised if you find the only crowd on the tees is a family of deer. And after a round of golf where to dine?
Just over the hill from Santa Barbara off Highway 154 near Rancho San Marcos is Cold Spring Tavern.

Santa Barbara Helicopter Tour
Santa Barbara Helicopter Tour
The 'Adventurer' flight departs from the Santa Barbara Municipal Airport (SBA) in Goleta, California. The air journey begins at the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB). It turns up the Pacific coast at the Campus Point towards Isla Vista, a student community. It follows along the coast over the Ellwood offshore oil field, Sandpiper golf course and Bacara Spa Resort. Flying outside the developed city boundaries reveals vistas of many cultivated agriculture ranches and orchards along the 101 (1) Pacific Coastal Highway.
At the Refugio State beach the tour turns North, away from the coast and into the continental mountain ranges. Breathtaking rock formations of twists and folds lead to Ronald Reagan's Rancho Del Cielo that is located towards the top of the range. Getting over the ridge reveals colorful and beautiful Solvang and Santa Ynez Valley.
From here the path bends to the east towards Lake Cachuma, a wilderness area in the San Rafael mountains. For about 10 next minutes the ride is pure mountain views of the wild back country - the Los Padres National Forest. With Gibraltar reservoir in sight the tour crosses the Camino Cielo Road into the foothills of Montecito and continues over many beautiful estates and golf courses. On a clear day, nearby cities of Ventura and Oxnard can be seen down the coast, which we happen to miss due to the ocean mist.
By now we are in Summerland, an area where the world's first offshore oil well was drilled into the ocean floor. From here the path turns up the coast passing by the Coral Casino, the Four Seasons Biltmore Hotel, Montecito Country Club, Bird Refuge Lake and Cemetery. The flight continues parallel to the Cabrillo Boulevard, home to the east beach volleyball courts, the Fess Parker Hilton Resort, Wharf Pier, the Boat Harbor and the Yacht Club, City College, Leadbetter beach and Mesa Shoreline park. In the distant right are the downtown Santa Barbara, the Mission and the coastal American Riviera.
At the Arroyo Burro Beach, also called Hendry's by the locals, we fly next to the Hope Ranch estates, turning North at Cliff Drive and Las Positas Road, flying towards Earl Warren Showgrounds and the Santa Barbara Municipal Golf Course.
From here we are on the final stretch headed for the airport over the Highway 101, where La Cumbre Plaza, Laguna Blanca lake and San Marcos High are seen.
Many many thanks to captain Taylor Nancarrow for an awesome 45-minute aerial Santa Barbara area tour on a brand new Robinson R44 Raven I chopper. Absolutely loved it, loved it, loved it!
Eagle Canyon Ranch
Eagle Canyon Ranch, Goleta, California, Santa Barbara County
Offered at $50,000,000
To aptly describe Eagle Canyon Ranch is to deem it one of the most extraordinary, pristine pieces of land in all the United States. A stunning 1900-acre expanse overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Santa Barbara County, this privately-owned property has been cherished and preserved by the same family for generations, and is now on the market for the first time in over a century. The first parcel, purchased in 1884, has grown to include some of the most breathtaking landscapes one might ever hope to experience. This gentle ranch land includes 19 parcels of pristine, usable open space, featuring unobstructed ocean and mountain vistas.
The land is primarily zoned AG-II-100 and MT-II-100, and only a fraction of the acreage remains under California Coastal Commission jurisdiction, leaving a future owner with a multitude of possibilities.
Just north of Santa Barbara, the property’s rolling hills, panoramic coastline, beautiful trails, tree-bordered plains, and tranquil Eagle Canyon Creek provide an enchanting retreat, but remain in close proximity to a host of amenities. Located on the famous Gaviota Coast in Santa Barbara County, and bordering Farren Rd., the 101 Freeway, and Los Padres National Forest, this historical piece of land is less than a mile from the Ritz Carlton Bacara Resort and Sandpiper Golf Course.
Eagle Canyon Ranch…the Jewel of the California Coast.

Our host Ian Cross travels to Southern California, the most populous and ethnically diverse state in the United States, which also offers some of the most varied golfing experiences in the country – from parkland to desert to seaside courses.
He starts his journey at the renowned La Quinta resort, a haven for movie stars, in the desert near Palm Springs which was established in the 1920s. Nowadays you can live like a star in one of your own personal casitas and swim in one of the 41 swimming pools. More importantly, La Quinta offers a staggering 90 holes of championship golf. Ian plays the PGA West Stadium Course with Mhairi McKay who has been playing the LPGA Women’s Tour for the last seven years. Designed by Pete Dye to be one of the most difficult courses in the world, the Stadium Course has lots of water, tricky bunkers and undulating greens, but it’s also a very rewarding and beautiful round to play.
Before heading out of the Coachella Valley – the golfing capital of Southern California with over 100 golf courses – Ian stops off at theTwin Palms Estate, an ultra modern house built for Frank and Nancy Sinatra in 1947 and now available to rent for a mere $15,000 per week!
Three hours down the highway, Ian takes a rest in one of LA’s hippest hotels on Sunset Boulevard, The Standard Hollywood, frequented by the likes of Rob Lowe and George Clooney. Up early the next morning, Ian tries to get a tee time at Rancho Park, but finds he hasn’t come early enough for a course that claims to be the busiest in the world! And it’s no wonder, Rancho plays surprisingly long for such an urban course and at $22 a round, it’s eminently more affordable than the neighbouring course Hill Crest, which costs $100,000 just to join.
It’s only about two hours drive up the coast to Santa Barbara. A great way to see this area of coast is to take a leaf out of Ian’s book and go gliding over the Santa Ynez Valley which is blessed with perfect thermals. Known as the “poor man’s Pebble Beach”, Sandpiper Golf Course can certainly give that course up north a run for its money! Ian plays with Dr Joseph Parent, the creator of ‘zen golf’ whose fans include the top rated player in the world, Vijay Singh. Sandpiper has two really outstanding holes, the 10th and the 11th, that take you right down to the sea and despite their beauty they really test your skills. Good job Ian’s got Dr Parent on hand to explain the positive mental tenets of zen golf.
Up over the San Marcos Pass, Ian heads into wine growing country and stops at the Rideau Vineyard where he meets the owner, Iris Rideau, who treats him to some of her award winning wines and fries him some oysters flown in from New Orleans which compliment some of her strains perfectly. Ian stays the night in Solvang, just down the road from the vineyard, an American town with a distinctly Danish feel to it. On the outskirts of town is the Santa Ines Mission, an oasis of tranquility set up in 1804.
Ian’s final golf stop is the Alisal Ranch where you can combine your love of golf with all the activities you’d expect at a working ranch. Ian takes a ride across some beautiful countryside with Tony Thompson, a wrangler at the Alisal for 20 years. Finally, he plays the Ranch Course with Dave Rosenstrauch, the course superintendent, for an old parkland ending to his tour of Southern California.
