Greatly improved!

Give credit when due. Fairways much improved recently. Greens aeration and overseed (Bermuda base greens) with bent grass grow in was great! Kudos to the Superintendent for overseeding greens with bent grass for an improved roll! Tees hopefully will get aeration next; still hard to get a tee in the ground! Love the subtle old school design! IMHO better design than Brookside or Griffith Park!

Interesting course

Enjoyed our round. Fairways were relatively wide and forgiving and ondulated landscape made this a special experience. Greens were a little slow which took some adjustment in play. Also they were relatively small and often dome shaped which made them an interesting challenge.

Great staff - terrible greens

Staff is always excellent! Course layout is fine enough but the greens are so terrible. They’re so hoppy and inconsistent. It’s a bummer, they’re greens used to be fast and rolly and now they’re 18 holes of Plinko.

Nice course. Good value

First time playing here.. very hilly course. Greens are on pseudo-domes and are not easy to handle.

Not the hardest but not easy either. Will play here again

Park style course - Terrible greens

Basic park style course like others around LA/OC

*Greens are probably the worst I’ve ever played on. They are mud with 1/32” thick “grass”. I was confused on how they could be that slow and bumpy.

Greens are a solid 2 on a scale of 1-10. Slow, bumpy, muddy, garbage.

Course is decent otherwise. Decent course for the price. Except the greens.

Needs TLC!

Very good old style design but it has just never been given the up-keep it deserves. Couldn’t get a tee in the ground on #2. Let’s get the aerator out please; just basic agronomic practices requested.

Trash in wrong placce

The tubs of sand to fill divots are filled with food & drink containers, banana peels and cigarette butts. Signs needed to direct trash to the appropriate containers.

Course conditions were not worth $60. No benefit to hitting it in the fairway, greens were not in good condition at all.
