Frommer's Review

On the edge of a golf resort on the western fringes of Angels Camp is Camps, the culinary feather in the cap of Greenhorn Creek golf resort. The restaurant's architects have integrated the building into its natural surroundings by constructing the outer walls with locally mined rhyolite and painting it in natural earth tones. The interior is furnished with leather armchairs, wicker, and antique woods. The best seats in the house are on the veranda overlooking the golf course, particularly on warm summer nights. Though the menu changes seasonally, a typical dinner may start with house salad with field greens, toasted pistachios, julienned red onions, and a raspberry vinaigrette, followed by macadamia-crusted halibut with a mandarin orange beurre blanc or crisp roasted duck with kumquat and sun-dried tomatoes. The lengthy wine list has been given Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence for 5 years running. The restaurant also offers kids' meals for about $7.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
