Mt. Woodson Golf Club, Ramona

Mt. Woodson Golf Club, the impressive 27-room, 12,000-square-foot stone mansion was completed in 1921 on the original 320-acre homestead of Dr. Marshall Clay Woodson. A Confederate surgeon, Woodson settled in this North County area in 1875. Begun in 1916, this combination of California Craftsman and Mission Revival architecture cost a then unheard of $50,000 to build. Unique during its time for luxuries such as hot running water, a telephone and electricity, this monolithic home now hosts weddings, receptions and private parties. It is also very famous for the golf tournaments that take place here on a large scale.
