Below are the general directions to get to the club from the routes into the area.

There are also some more explicit directions below these for those who are new to the area, or possibly somewhat map-challenged, such as I am! We have the same general directions but with pictures of the route to aid your trip to see us. Simply click on one of the routes below; either the basic General Descriptions or the Pictoral Route links.

General Directions:

Coming from the north, Santa Maria through Casmalia:

From the intersection of South Broadway and Betteravia Road in Santa Maria, go west on Betteravia, then bear left as the road becomes Mahoney Road. Continue heading south as the road becomes Black Road. Go straight (south) at the flashing red light, toward Casmalia. The road becomes the Lompoc-Casmalia Road. Stay on this road until you pass a flashing yellow light, and immediately make a left turn onto Bishop Road. Follow Bishop Road past the golf-ball looking structures, and continue on the narrow but newly paved road for 3/4 mile to the Clubhouse.

Remember that on an active military reservation, ALL rules posted MUST be obeyed.

The Air Force Security Forces cuts little or no slack in these tense times.

Coming from the south and Lompoc or Vandenberg AFB Main Base area:

From the intersection of the Lompoc-Casmalia Road and Highway 1 at the Vandenberg AFB Main Gate, go north on Highway 1, over the hill, and turn left onto San Antonio Road - West. Bear right at the fork and head north toward Casmalia. Continue north on Lompoc-Casmalia Road until you pass a flashing yellow light, then immediately turn right onto Bishop Road. Follow Bishop Road to the Clubhouse as described above. Remember that as an active military reservation, ALL rules posted MUST be obeyed. The Air Force Security Forces cuts little slack in these tense times.

The Clubhouse telephone number is 805-606-6112. A machine will answer if the clubhouse is vacant.
