Challenging old school
William Bell design 1955. Same guy did Torrey Pines San Diego south golf course. Nice layout. Greens are good, fairways ok with Kikuyu grass everywhere making it challenging, good for practice. Rough was brutal. 6” deep in most areas, making it challenging and again great for practice staying in the fairways. Some long holes not for short hitters.

Golfing Whittier Narrows.
Overall, not bad for a public course.
The greens are in good shape. The fairways are ok. If you have a ball in the rough, very difficult to find due to all the holes and unevenness. Good value for the price!

You get what you pay for
Good for a quick weekday practice round or walking excercise since it's close by. Pros: Great green conditions and cheap. Cons: Average fairways and constant delays. You get exactly what you pay for.
