Hunter Ranch is the nicest golf course in San Luis Obispo County hands down. It is affordable, challenging, well maintained, and has by far the smoothist and best greens in the county. The sand traps are real traps with soft fluffy deep sand, not just four inches deep and then rock; and to make it tough, there is a trap in every landing area, dern near. Stay out of the Oak Trees and in the fairway is the only way to score well here. The par 4's are long so if your not getting off the Tee properly you will be scrambling for bogey all day.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
