The Lakes El Segundo August '22

The staffs were very friendly. The food at the snack shop was good, seating areas indoor and outdoor were very pleasant. Considering the course has just been renovated and reopened recently, the fairway condition is not as good as one would expect. There were numerous workmen in view actively working on the course.

Old course was way better

The course is squished. They could extend the course easily, but I’m sure it will be years before any changes are made, since the course is new.

The new course was great the first month, and has gone down in quality each time I’ve played. The greens and grass are not well kept, in comparison to similar sized courses a few miles away, and get worse each time I play.

Pitch N' Putt Party Golf

Most holes were 75 yards at length - not a USGA Certified course so it won't count towards your handicap either. Music pumping from the speakers. 5-somes of families and extremely slow pace of play. If this place was $10 I feel like that would be worth it, but as the current price stands it is definitely not worth it.

Fun for all skill levels

Took my wife and kids and we all enjoyed the course. Plays more as a chip and putt for the average golfer, but greens are fun.

This is a great 10 hole par 3. Holes range from 60-120 yards. The course definitely gets a lot of play (tee boxes are worn, etc), but overall the course is great for what it is. The staff was incredibly nice and did everything to ensure a great experience.

New Lakes

First time playing The Lakes since the Top Golf renovations finished earlier this year. Overall, I like the changes. Solid 10 hole par 3 track. Could do without the music being piped out onto the course,

Good, fun course!

Fun course, I like the music playing throughout the course. I’m good shape, as it was recently built and the grounds keepers move the tee boxes around. Only complaint is one of the greens was recently aerated and had a lot of sand on it (hole 3 I believe), but it’s good to see they are staying on top of the course maintenance. Will definitely be back to play again.

Play The Lakes!

The newly opened course retains the old charm but is better! Improved greens; new distance signage, on- course directions, and hole signage; music!; designated parking; and a nice new clubhouse with attentive staff. All next to Too Golf. It’s sure to become the locals favorite!
