Cattle Creek Golf & Country Club

I've been searching for this course eersince I saw it featured in "A Round of Golf" 4 years ago. It located within the Puyat Propery in San Jose Del Monte Bulacan. It will be tough to get there since you will have to go through towns in Bulacan just to reach the site.

During the Christmas break in 2012, I decided to look for it. We went through the backdoor via SM Fairview, and left UP Village at 9am arriving to the site at around 1030am. Traffic can be a killer.

It is a 9-hole course, and you pay 1020 for a full 18 holes inclusive of the caddie fee. It is semi-maintained, there is a tendency for you to have difficulty looking for your ball should it fall in the rough. There are baby frogs on the fairway to add a rustic feel to your game. The scary part is, I saw a snake in the more moist grass so be careful. The caddie said there are full sized cobras in the thick vegetation.

Over-all, if you want to avoid long queues and waiting times as you enjoy your game, this place is it.
