Explore Non-Golf Communities and Real Estate in California

California Communities Without Golf

Golf communities may be popular among active adult homebuyers in California, but they’re not for everyone. The tee box chatter, membership status, and ongoing greens-keeping may be great for residents who are avid golfers, but it’s not the dream of all gated community homebuyers. The good news is The Golden State offers plenty of opportunities—from SoCal to the Bay Area to the heart of the California Delta—for those looking to settle down in a California community without golf. And each of the non-golf communities featured here still offers a full suite of resort-style amenities, activities, and services that make buying in a California lifestyle community so appealing.
