Good Practice Round

The Lakes provides a nice opportunity to work on your short game and putting. It is a well maintained course. Greens are in great shape.

Don’t recommend night time play.

Lighting was bad and there were a few greens with huge logs of geese poop That had to be moved in order to make a putt.

Great Course, Great Value

First time playing on Wednesday evening at 6:20pm, day after the start of the Palisades Fire, but we really wanted to get out. It was a fantastic course! The tee boxes had little mats, but we mostly played just off to the side in the turf - which it was clear many people do. Great course layout, massive greens, solid difficulty with interesting distances and tiered/undulating greens. Was extremely well lit, we only lost one errant ball between the 3 of us - not including the 3 sent right into the lake at the forced carry on hole 3. The greens were slower than what we have been used it with public courses out here, and some seemed to have had some sand on them? But nothing crazy. We will definitely come back!

Super fun and fas Par 3

Instead of going to the driving range, I went to the Lakes at El Segundo and I was pleasantly surprised. Course is in pretty good condition and it played within 75 minutes. I’ll be back. And the staff was really helpful.

Course is Great, But not Player Ethic

The course is great to play for a quick round! that last hole is a great added bonus, but players need to be on top of their game and fix their divots on the green a few greens were full of divots making it incredibly hard to have a good putting line ovewrall a great course!

TopGolf Money Grab

Less of an executive course. More like a practice chipping area. The City of El Segundo practically gave away this golf course so TopGolf can exploit local golfers for more money. Amazing views of the oil refinery and industrial chemical tanks. Wow.

Stay away and don't waste your time.

The Lakes were fun

The course is both fun challenging. The club house and bar are great. Very friendly staff.
