Perfect for short game work.

John Daley says golf is all about 150 and in. This is the place to work that. For $30ish, you get 10 holes on grass, a good chip/putt practice area, a bucket of balls to hit next door at Top Golf, and a free cup of coffee. Staff I friendly and accommodating.

Hidden Gem

this course has actually been here a long time but with all the upgrades and improvements it's a really great place.

Nice staff, great condition, good pace.

I highly Recommend this place.

It's right next door to the new top golf so that's only a bonus.

Small but mighty

Pros:

Awesome course conditions even after heavy rain

Friendly staff

Fun play

Cons:

Too slow (but tends to be the norm in LA)

Greens are ball marked

I was impressed by this tiny yet fun course. The grass was some of the best Ive seen in public courses. The greens often had ball marks and that may be on some of the clientele not addressing their marks. Overall I would love to play here again.

First time since becoming a Top Golf Course

I was really surprised by the upgrades that have been made to this course. The pro shop and bar are modern, neat and clean. The course is now only par 3s with the longest hole being about 150 yards. What was lost in yardage was gained in the grounds care. I didn’t see a patch of yellow grass anywhere. A rarity for this type of course. Worth the few extra dollars.

Great Course for all levels

I started playing golf around 5 months ago and have loved to play at the Lakes. It’s both easy to book a tee time as it is to purchase it with the great customer service offered at the club house. Great course for all levels of play and has greatly increased my skill dramatically.
