Suffice to say that when you enter the gates of DMCC that you remove your reality suit and send it out for dry cleaning.
This Club finds it's rightful place amongst the elite Country Club's (Bel Air, Riviera, Sherwood C.C., Fairbanks Ranch C.C.), with a rich history and reputation for catering to the top 1%, of the top 1%.
It is a venue enjoyed by a select few, a traditional Club built on the values of "Member by invitation only...." -

This place, quite simply, off the hook. I think you have to be pullin in 7 digits a year to be a resident or member here. That includes futures traders, class action lawyers, trust fund babies, hotel heiresses, etc.
Quite stunning. I think the members here could smell the "guest" odor I was giving off. Most of the men rolling around there smell like old leather, money, or a combination of both. I wish I smelled like that. Suffice it to say, they knew I was just a guest there. Whatever......the place is insane. Incredibly filthy rich members drive around on golf cars modelled to look like mini BMW 's and Ferrari 's and Cadilllac Escalades. No joke. It just makes me wonder, why the heck did I chose to study engineering when I could have studied finance and traded on Wall Street? Probably what you need to get into this place.
Apparently, the wife of T.Boone Pickens owns this golf course. Yeah, saw her pad. Wow. I think one of the homes on the 6th hole was for sale......a paltry $19 million. Whatever......I'll take that out of my savings account.
Anyways, the golf course is beautiful. I'd say 9 stars out of 10. The weather, the views, the ambience of the place is 10 stars. You are required to have a caddie here for a 4 some (we were). I've never played with a caddie. The guy wiped the mud off my ball. Now I have an idea as to how it feels to be Tiger (except for the fact that my swing sucks compares to Tiger.......beside the point).
What a treat to be able to come to this place. Why couldn't I have just been born into this filthy wealth? Ever wonder what it's like to truly be "filthy" rich? Sneak into this CC to get a taste of the "good life."
Once again, the old proverb by my friend and fellow yelper David C. holds true: life OUTSIDE the ghetto is MUCH better than life INSIDE the ghetto.
I'm out. -

The campus grounds of the Del Mar Country club is one of the most beautiful sites during the twilight hours. Members enjoy rolling hundred dollar bills up and lighting cigars with them.
I've worked here and been to functions here.
The food is amazing.
You'll often see hot air balloons pass by over head, or in the distance. During the holidays, the homes in the neighborhood are lit up on the hillside. It's quite an alluring destination, but it's not for everyone. I never feel like I fit in there--my car isn't that awesome. -

Beautiful country club. Very exclusive. I use to come here in high school with my friends. The people working were pretty rude to us though...but that was probably because we were teenagers. So that is why I'm giving them 4 stars and not five. They are really strict about the dress code too, so don't expect to get away with "nice casual". The food is ok...I like the iced tea in the ladies' room though!
