The land was bought by the Montgomery Family in 1851 who settled during the gold rush. One century later, the land was bought by Bruce Mace. Mace hired Robert Baldock, a golf course designer from Fresno. He then opened the club house a decade later by spring of 1961, along with the golf course and the first 175 lots for sale.
