Santa Anita Golf Course

Greens were in excellent condition,
Staff was very helpful, and pace was great. Love this course.

As with any course you are only as fast as those ahead of you. The group in front of us were fast enough except when the guy drove back asking if we saw his putter. Then said he must have left it at a different hole. So I suppose he must have been chipping his putts in the hole. LOL.
The course all in all took us 5 hours to complete because of pace of stack of groups.
But the course was nice. Great view of mountains.
Also seams to be a big senior course, looked like all of AARP was there our morning of play.

The starter was very friendly. I think all starters should be that good.
The course is fine in an early summer days.

See you next time!!!

Have always enjoyed playing Santa Anita I happen to pick the perfect day to play. Course was in great shape, fairways, greens, pace of play was Excellent.

Always enjoyable to play here. Sometimes plays a bit slow but overall very pleasant.

ok i will start with the carts first they are OLD not to nitpick but these were really kinda raggedy. ok got that off my chest, the course was in great shape overall; the greens are usually in good shape here and they were again sunday. the fairways were in good shape no big bare spots the rough was decent always a good experience here they keep the course up very well no complaints about the course. now the pace; we finished in a little over 4 hours but it coulda been/shoulda been alot faster i dont understand why the first group of the day is a fivesome walking? we caught them at the third hole and waited every hole after that, if you wanna go for a walk find a park! or play fast!

Normally this golf course plays well with its condition. However, recently the Greens Superintendent lost sight on what a round cut hole should look like on a green. It would appear the Greens Superintendent is forgetting to move the holes and is allowing grass to grow around the role and as a result reducing its size and shape. The marshals on this course are unheard of. And, if you happen to see one, they won’t tell anyone that their playing too slow. During their prime time, guarantee five hour round due to their lack of supervising. While Santa Anita refuses to offer deals during their off time, you can play Brookside Golf course for $13.00 after 3:30 and their listed in GolfNow for savings on any time, not Santa Anita.

A well maintained and groomed course, kept green because of local recycled water. Greens are in great shape, a little slow because of all the water they get. Par 3s are mostly long, but there are some drivable par 4s. Fairways are lush and undulating and mostly well groomed. The only flaw is that the red tees are a little long for most women. Santa Anita is one of 19 golf courses owned by the Los Angeles County Parks & Recreation Department and is arguably the best.
