Whoever said Millennials spend too much money on avocado toast was obviously allergic to avocados & happiness! At The Sunset Grill, Chef Patrick is introducing a new seasonal menu item: Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast paired with a six minute egg, pickled red onion, herb & citrus gremolata all presented on a crispy slice of Costeaux French Bakery sourdough. Come by for brunch before or after your round and order this seasonal special alongside a House-Made Bloody Mary... Or two! #ExperienceTroon

Can you spot our crane? Our BHM Construction, Inc. construction team has been putting in the work this past month, even on weekends! If you haven't gotten a chance to check out the construction site of our new clubhouse, head up to the putting green and see it in all of it's glory. Over the next few months we will be able to see where everything will be and we couldn't be more excited for that first cocktail out on the restaurant patio! Executive Chef Patrick has some fun things up his sleeve for opening day and we can't wait to see what they are. What will be your first cocktail order at the new clubhouse? #ExperienceTroon

Have you tried our two new menu items at The Sunset Grill? Executive Chef Patrick is taking your advice and whipping up a new vegan option! This Harissa Roasted Cauliflower Steak is sure to satisfy any cravings, no matter how large your appetite. Also on the menu is a new gluten free, seasonal option that is so very refreshing! The Bibb & Arugula Salad sprinkled with feta, pecans and golden vinaigrette is a filling meal on its own...

Happy New Year Yesterday was a big day for us! If you can believe it, we hit 30,000 golf rounds played in 2020! That is almost 10,000 more than 2019. Somewhere in this foursome was the lucky number 30,000! Thank you to everyone who made this happen for us this year. We are so excited to see what 2021 has in store for us!... How many times a week do you play at The Fountaingrove Club? #ExperienceTroon

Our Membership Director has been playing golf since he could remember and his passion for fitness just happens to align with his golf addiction. He was featured by Troon this past week for visiting and tracking his steps while playing at some of our neighboring Troon facilities across multiple states! His latest conquest was none other than the Marin Country Club where he met up with members of their staff and set out to play a round of golf. Check out his article to learn more about his time at Marin CC. http://bit.ly/3oz35af

We hosted a SOLD OUT Pop-Up "Taste of Fall" Dinner last night at The Sunset Grill. Executive Chef Patrick Tafoya whipped up some Cabernet Braised Short Ribs over buttermilk mashed potatoes. While waiting on her order, Ms. Mandy Jackson snapped this photo while sitting outside on the patio. We hope everyone enjoyed last night's meal and we look forward to next week's dinner featuring BBQ brisket. Yummy!

A huge Happy Birthday to Bill Garey's father and son! You read that right -- they share a birthday 2 generations apart! They chose to celebrate with us at The Fountaingrove Club and we are so honored they chose to do so. We hope you had an amazing round and here is to many more birthdays celebrated at The Fountaingrove Club! What do you do to celebrate your birthday? #ExperienceTroon

DID YOU KNOW? Kikuyu grass, native to eastern Africa, is very aggressive and drought tolerant. Many courses in Southern California use this grass (most notably Torrey Pines and Riviera Country Club), however as it is non-native, we prefer to remove it.

Summer is coming to an end but that does not mean swim lessons are done! We have a outstanding team of instructors ready to take you or your child to the next level. Call 707 701 3075 to learn more. #TroonFIT

It's been 2 weeks since aerification and the greens are healing nicely. The greens have rebounded and are close to being back to prime playing conditions. Their health and color are remarkable. They will be a bit bumpy for another week or so, but we are continuing to lower the heights of cut down and rolling. #ExperienceTroon

It has been a wonderful season with this awesome bunch. There is no other feeling quite like helping young athletes further develop their love and passion for the game of #golf. Tip of the cap to Khiana and for all her hard work on this project!

Good morning Fountaingrove! We’re off to a great start this morning. Come reset your mind and get your sweat on. #TroonFIT

The air quality is poor this morning, but they won’t stop the team from BHM Construction from working on your new clubhouse. Check it out! #progress

Andy and his team aerified the golf course this week. The process will allow oxygen and other nutrients to access the roots. Imagine how well the tees, fairways and greens are now breathing! Can you guess how many cores we pulled from the greens alone? The number might surprise you! #agronomy

Greens are healing nicely. #ThankASuper

Congratulations to Miguel Bunting, 2020 Men's Stroke Play Champion! His aggregate score of 153 was enough to edge out Brett Wilmes and the rest of the field. John Schwonke and Jay Bansal were the Champions of the Green Tee Flight and Green/White Combo Flight, net divisions, respectively. ... Thank you to everyone who participated and everyone who worked hard to make this happen!

Good luck to everyone playing in this weekend's Club Championship. The greens are 12.2 this morning. Play well! #ExperienceTroon

BHM Construction, Inc. is making a lot of progress on your new clubhouse. Check it out!!! #ExperienceTroon
