About Fort Washington Golf & Country Club
Watson created what amounts to an oasis in California's Central Valley, using intensive tree planting to establish the parkland character that defines the course today. The mature canopy provides both beauty and strategic challenge, forcing precision on approach shots that seemed routine when the trees were saplings. Fort Washington represents the era when California golf spread beyond coastal areas into the interior's farming communities.
