Unfriendly Staff and Running Out of Cart Battery
I've played there with my wife in the afternoon of Sunday. However, the cart was running out of battery at back nine, hole 5. We couldn't play after the cart was running out of battery and walked back to the pro-shop without playing. However, the staff in the pro-shop didn't seem to bother and all he said was I should have called the pro-shop. I've never experienced the cart running out of the battery in the middle of the golf course. So, I didn't know what to do. The staff was very unfriendly and didn't seem feel sorry for us. It was really bad experience with unprofessional and unfriendly staff in the pro-shop. I do not recommend this course to anyone. Unfriendly staff has ruined my wife's and my experience at Whittier Narrow Golf Course. The condition of fairway wasn't good either.
Great LA County course
This course is a bit confusing for a 1st timer. The course consists of three individual 9-hole segments. The fairways are well kept, long and challenging. I enjoyed playing here and I would definitely come back again.
-Sunday morning front desk has the worst attitude and service.
-The pace of play is so slow took us 5.5 hours to finish we gave up back 9 and went to their mountain 9 hole course or else we would of finished even later .
-the course on the weekend is quite pricey for what we have to go through as the course condition isn't the best.
Avoid playing here on the weekends !!
Great Conditions
I have played here several times. And the tee times special for $21 with a cart you can't beat. The course conditions from tee boxes to Fairways to around the greens and on the greens are Immaculate right now spring is the best time to play Whittier Narrows. I didn't hit a green in regulation all day so I can tell you chipping around the greens was nice no dead spots. Unless you really miss then you'll find the bad stuff so don't miss that bad LOL
Great course
Wide open fairways, and nice greens. The only issue I had was the greens had a layer of fertilizer making it challenging to putt. Otherwise it was a good experience.
Make sure you have no plans if you tee off after 10
We teed off at 10:45 and finished at 5pm six hours fifteen minutes crazy no golf course should take this long when you tee off there is a group on the fairway safely out of distance a group on the green this was on every hole
Very busy and poor conditions
my son and I played the day after Thanksgiving. I expected the course to have a full tee sheet, but it was worse than that - not only did we tee off late but we joined a threesome. every group in front and behind us was also a fivesome. needless to say, it was a slow round, probably 5 hours.
except for the greens, the course was in poor shape - hacked up tees, thin fairways that were almost dirt in some places. with that many people playing, I would think the course generates a decent revenue. But it's obvious that LA County Dept of Parks does not put any money back into the course.
No, it is not LA county fault. It is the management company that they hire didn't do their job right. That management company is call American Golf Cooperation.
Better than expected!
After reading reviews, I wasn't expecting much, but after completing my round, I was pleasantly surprised! Although the layout of 3 par 9s is a little confusing, the greens are smaller than I'm used to, pace of play was great and the layout was easy enough to enjoy my round.
Easy to get early tee time
Was able to get a Sunday morning tee time late in the week, (I think I booked it on Wednesday).
Very good course for the money. Fairways are not in great shape, but greens were fine.
Pace-of-play was above average, about 4.5 hours.
Restaurant prices are very high, but have decent food choices.
Good bargain
The course was great for the price, Adriana club house personnel was great.....
Not surprised to read your comments. It is not just Whittier Narrows but every American Golf Cooperation managed course. I spoke with their regional manager, Kyle Mitchell, regarding to some issues too. But rather to apologize for the inconvenience that his staff has caused me, he turned around and pointed out my fault to dilute and justify their actions and unprofessionlism.
