Willowick Golf Course

This was the first time playing Willowick, and as advertised it was definitely the oldest course in Orange County. However, with the old came a whole host of problems. Have never seen so many gopher holes, gopher mounds, etc. The lack of attention to this problem has allowed to rodents to completely destroy the fairways and some tee boxes. Make sure you watch your step, as you might twist an ankle, or hold on for an extremely bumpy ride in your golf cart. On a positive note, the golf carts are strong, visually esthetic and in good working order.

Signage is basically non-existent, and if you are lucky you might find yourself playing the course in numerical order. Most likely out of order.

On two of the holes you will find yourself having to navigate around trash, clothes, and tents all associated with homeless camps. Don't leave your cart unattended, as your valuables may disappear.

I would not recommend this course to friends, family or enemies. Until someone shows some interest in just a modicum of maintenance or ownership, I'll never return.

There was bums living on the course!! And it was full of gang graffiti everywhere.. Ridiculous can’t believe this course is still in business

If you’re looking for a cheap round with available AM tee times this is the place. The greens are kept up okay, but the fairways are rough, even for a public course.

This course has been on the decline for years. I think its finally on its last leg. Every aspect of this course is bad. The bathrooms with sinks that do not work , the fairways , greens , tee boxes . Its all a mess.

Weather perfect. Tee'd off right on time. Pace was good. Tee boxes good. Greens good. Roughs okay. Fairways fair. There were many places on fairway where it was hard pan. Haven't had any rain in SoCal in a few months & even that last was minimal. Still no snack shack, that's not the fault of the course though. Gatorades avail from front desk. For the money still good. Great local course.

I had not played here in awhile and found with the exception of the greens that the course was in the worst shape that I have ever seen. Mud everywhere, especially in front of greens and there was very little grass on the fairways. We had to play lift clean and find a patch of grass to make our round tolerable. However; the weather was great and we had a good day on the course anyway.

Condition needs much improvement

Great staff

Good greens

Horrible conditions! Rumor had a years ago they were going to close it for a housing track. Gopher holes everywhere and very very bumpy terrain. Back breaker for sure in a cart. No fairways just pretty much dirt. Played a lot in the 90's here and not even close to those conditions.
