Fun

So the tee boxes were getting fixed, not a problem though. We got a good rate online because it was the special of the day. Though no one was ahead of us for 15 minutes, we were told we had to wait to go out. Didn’t make sense to me but whatever. $30 for non resident rate seems a bit high for 10 hole course but it is convenient. We had a great time. Nice course to bring beginners to as well.

Fun for beginners and tweaking you Irons play

Much improved course from years ago; the three of us beginners enjoyed the course and even had two pars! Like old times, you still have to navigate around geese and their waste, but it doesn’t interfere with the pace of the game. It’s nice having option to tee off of either grass or carpet and the greens are in great shape. Cost was $20/person which was reasonable for the nice conditions compared to Alondra course in Lawndale. Nice selection of food options for vegetarians in the bar restaurant.

Chill

I would come back for the night golf. This is more suited for an extremely casual round of golf. Not much thrills. Fairly beginner level. It can still be fun. Kind of on the higher end for such a small course. I finished it in 40 minutes. I was alone with one person ahead of me.

First time since Top Golf

I played here years ago before Top Golf was built. Everything is much "fresher" now. We didn't get a chance to use range before round for some reason. Would have been nice. Course is short and pretty easy as expected. Mush less bird droppings than in previous years but still there. Overall enjoyable time. Would do it again.

The geese population is truly out of control. There are droppings everywhere- it is impossible to play with out getting ones shoes and golf balls full of poop.

Small but Mighty

Enjoyed the quality of the tees and greens. Uphill and downhill holes add to variety. Pin placements that day were basically simple but could be the difference in score by several strokes. Slopes on greens are readable but tricky.

Greens putted superb for as much play as they get. Bring a ball mark repairer as many others don’t. Probably more out of ignorance than intent.

Have fun!
