Meadowlark Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Meadowlark Golf Club in Huntington Beach is a player-friendly layout that is a popular choice amongst locals. Like most classically designed layouts, the course is short and tight but that also makes it easily walkable. The pin placements on the greens can be tricky and there are also some challenging water hazards that come into play on several holes. The golf course will test your short game skills but there are wide, player-friendly fairways that balance the trickier elements. Beware, though, numerous trees on the golf course make many of the tee shots tight and narrow. It is not an overly difficult layout but it is an enjoyable round that players of any skill level will enjoy. Meadowlark also offers affordable rates that make it doubly appealing.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 4-Star rating!
Thanks for the 3-Star rating, hopefully we can add a couple stars the next time you visit!
Another great day
Great check-in and helpful starter
All fairways in great shape. But 2.
Greens most all excellent or goo.
Layout is interesting and challenging.
Very little high rough so is forgiving .
Play 2 times per month.
Great time to play before winter rains create problems.
Thanks for the 4-Stars and nice comments about our course. Hopefully the winter is a bit more mild than last year!
Thank you for the 4-Star rating!
Thanks for the 5-Stars!
Looks like we fell short of your expectations based on your 2-Star rating. We are constantly trying to improve and be better, hopefully you will give us another chance to meet your expectations!
The 2-Star rating you left indicates we may have fell short in some areas during your visist. We hope you will give us another chance to add some stars to your rating!
Thanks for the 4-Star rating!
3 teams backed up at par 3 hole .
It’s needed to manage the fairways in some areas.
There are a lot of bumps on the greens and didn’t repair the divots even.
Sklee, we are sorry to hear about your recent experience at Meadowlark. While our Marshals do their best to keep pace moving, sometimes our par3's can get a bit backed up. Pace is a major key for us and we have come a long way in keeping our round times at good levels. Please give us another shot and you will see better pace.

I am not thinking about repeat play here.
All courses were flat and short in distance, making them suitable for beginners.
The waiting time at each hole was long, and it took about 5 hours and 20 minutes for 18 holes.
Our course is certainly a bit on the shorter side making a great place for someone newer to the game. Meadowlark was built in 1922 and it's difficulty comes from our very small, undulating greens. Looking forward to another chance to show you a great day at the Lark!
Course has made some good improvements
The course was pretty rough 6 months ago but they have made some great improvements to the cart paths and the overall course conditions. I would love for them to cut/ roll the greens a little more. When we played the greens were rolling at about an 8 this course would get all 5 stars if they could improve their green speeds as well as the bunker sand. All in all a good orange county course with reasonable prices for the area. The food offered at the course is also fantastic which is always a plus in my book.
Thank you so much for the positive feedback and 4-Star rating! We've been working hard to make Meadowlark as great as we know it can be and continue to make improvements every day. See you out on the links again soon!
Thanks for the 4-Stars!
Nice 1/2 Round
I have played Meadowlark a few times and I like the course. However, the pace of play on a Saturday is so slow that a round of golf is simply not enjoyable. There is simply not enough time between foursomes in order to avoid really long wait times on every hole. Three hours to play 9 holes is absurd. We paid for 18 holes but couldn’t justify over 6 hours on the course plus our commute time.
So sorry to hear about the pace you encountered during your round. We've been working hard on creating a better pace of play and hope you give us another shot!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 3-Star rating. Unfortunately our course does not have drainage built in which leaves some wet conditions at times. We do our best to adjust our watering to ensure we are only adding necessary water to areas. Come play a round in the afternoon or during the summer to see a drier side of Meadowlark.
Thanks for the 4-Stars!
