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.

Great greens!

This coarse was nice and fun. Pretty easy course very flat and straight. The guys mowing will not get out of the way when you tee off so I generally hit over them. Some of the best greens I have played on in a while! The ball rolled fast and very smooth. I played the pine and mountain course

Nice Course

Course is in good shape and the staff are very helpful. Range is mats only so it is hard to work on your game or warm up. Food is OK from the grill and the clubhouse is small as is their inventory It was an enjoyable round with very good pace of play and a generally nice layout with no tricks or false designs..
