Not my first choice

The greens and fairways were in great condition (except one fairway). The blue tee boxes are uneven and terrible. The white and forward tee boxes are a lot better and flat. The ruff is horrible. It's not very good grass to hit out of. The bunkers were over watered, too. All in all, i don't recommend this course.

Poorly maintained, trash, foul smell.

Brown spots & uneven grass everywhere on rough and even on fairwa and NOT maintained well. No supervisions & no marshals seen anywhere as players in carts were jumping everywhere from holes to holes. Hole 8 on Pine there were trash everywhere by workers' shed and on rough with foul smells and flies buzzing in cloud. Not worth the money & trip.

quick 9

course was in great shape it gets played alot, but greens were almost immaculate (a few pitch marks here and there on par 3's) they are letting the rough grow out a little longer and the fairways were cut and green no dirt patches, played here alot over the years and the last year or so they are really maintaining it alot better. pace for the 9 holes was quick 1 1/2 to 2 hours playing two balls (nobody behind or in front of us we had the whole course to ourselves)

Muni Course, Muni Condition

Pretty much got what I paid for at Whittier. The conditions were so-so, pretty bumpy ride everywhere on the course which gives you an idea of the terrain (potholes, etc.). The grading aside, the course was green and in good shape and to me, that makes for a more enjoyable round than playing somewhere like Skylinks where it's a better track but completely dried out.

The course plays long from the blues but no forced carries and fairly wide open. Pace of play was good, we had a 5-some in front of us with some hackers that slowed us down and caused a 4.75hr round. The also stack them up on tee 1, we teed off almost 45 minutes late (some of that our fault). But the pace is good from tee 2 on.

Bottom-line, for the price, good course to have some beers and hang with your boys. If you're looking to really play a round of golf, kick up to the next price point.

Good enough for enjoy your game

This wide opened course giving us fun all the time.
Course built looks like common but you need attention each hole.
More than half of 18 holes you still need skill your
game management.
If you make hook or slice shot,you can find out your ball but you will get interrupted by different type of trees.
Staffs here very kind with no doubt.
You lucky unless you meet slow players front of your some.
Anyway we would like to come play here whenever we want.
Definitely fine course for every level of golfers.

Whittier Narrows Review

The course is wide and long. Due to it's wide courses, it seems like an easy enough course. However, the greens are small and the way bunkers are set up, they give you challenges. Had a lot of fun here, and will come back in the short future.

long part 4s

The course fairway is in excellent condition. The par 4s are pretty long which means that you pretty much have to have your driver on. A big slice will be trouble. The only negative review I have will be the greens.the greens are pretty small in size.

Typical Municipal Course

Here's my impression of this course. Pace of play is slow because many golfers here aren't educated as to what things they do that slow things down. The fairways and tees are bumpy. The greens are nice and lush but there are too many unrepaired ball marks. The sand traps had real sand in them (not dirt) which is nice. There are plenty of mature trees. The food at the clubhouse was good also. I upgraded from playing 9 holes to 18

Nice course

The staff was GREAT! They let us on as a twosome. One course had two groups ahead so they let us go out on the other one and finished up on the one we were supposed to be on.....I like when the staff goes with what is best to move the golfers along. Great Job! Started at 12:07 and ended at 3:40pm.
