On Father’s Day, dad plays for half price at the Little River Inn’s Golf Course
on the North Mendocino Coast. Tucked among the hills and redwoods, the
nine-hole course presents unexpected challenges to golfers.
Stunning
ocean views distract first time players, and you may spot a wandering
deer crossing the putting green – this is an Audubon-certified
sanctuary, after all. All greens fees are 50% off for fathers on June
17. www.littleriverinn.com or (707) 937-5667
Ricochet Ridge Ranch
would like to invite folks to bring their fathers for a special private
trail ride any day during the week before, during or after Father’s Day
weekend. Dad’s own horse ride will be 20% off if two people ride, 35%
