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.

Friendly staff.
Interesting layout. Fun to play. Starter did a great job getting us out early and pace of play good at 4 1/2 hrs.
Nice
Things were moving quicker then usual which is great.
Coach Todd
Tougher than the yardage would indicate (5600) yards. Alot of ups and downs. Greens have alot of nuances
First Time
Course was ok but the pace of play was terrible. Need to work on spreading tee times out better.
Fun course
We got out at 11:15 and finished by 3:15! Great pace of play. Course was in great condition. Good value.
the course has good challenge sand traps and water
the course is getting better each week we play.like to see geens a little smoother always enjoy playing their
Teeing up in the Long Beach area
Very nice course and laid out well for the yardage. The round was slow but I played on a Saturday afternoon which is understandable. Lots of undulation, so riding is optimal unless your looking for a workout to go with your round of golf. Good luck out there.
great greens
I have played this course a few times and have been underwelmed with the greens, however, they are in great shape now. Best deal around.
Did not play because of high school kids
this is just a warning to everyone about the single tee times Tuesday thru Thursday from 2-4. I got a 2:42 time and showed up and the kids were teeing off. The guy inside told me I would have to try and mix in with people already play a few holes in. I guess the system only books the high schools as 4 but the golf now system is set for 5. This leaves a single spot for all of the tee times with the kids. So if you are a single and want to play between 2-4pm Tuesday to Thursday don't go here.
Great Weekday Option
I know this course gets beat up for their weekend 5 1/2 hours rounds but if you can get out during the week and midday, the round plays 4 1/2 hours and they have great deals online. It's a short/older course so there are natural spots that require waiting for the group in front of you to clear, so that can't be avoided. But it's a fun and challenging layout. Not too tough. Kept in decent shape, except the tee boxes, which need some working on. So my advice, avoid on the weekend, but if playing on a weekday, definetly consider.
Fun but slow
Course was painfully slow. Not enough golf carts for the amount of players. Short but challenging course.
Short course with some elevations
Course gets a lot of play but is in decent shape. has a couple elevated tee boxes and greens are tough to hold cuz they' re shaped like mushrooms. (have to put it in the middle). Right at 5 hours on a Saturday at 9:00 is expected in So Cal.
Fun on Friday
We played at a good group. The pace of play was good. Tee boxes were in good shape. Fair ways were also in good shape even with all the hot weather. The greens were slow due to some sand earlier. Still ball rolled fine.
Mgmt needs to hold a higher standard.
Good course for the money. But Mgmt needs to be more selective with allowing certain types of patrons on the course. No need for drunken hackers driving the carts onto the green. Need more patrons with the proper golf etiquette to keep the pace enjoyable. Need an effective marshall to monitor inappropriate behaviors on the course.
SOMEONE IS GONNA GET HURT
THE DRIVING RANGE NETTING IS EVEN WORSE. NOW YOU CAN GET HIT BY A HARD HOOK FROM THE RANGE APROACHING THE GREEN ON # 9. WHEN DRIVING UP ON THE CART PATH THERE IS A GIANT HOLE IN THE NETTING YOU MUST DRIVE PAST. THE GREEN ON #7 AND THE TEE ON #8 REMAIN HARD HAT AREAS. MANAGEMENT UNCONSCIONABLY LEAVES THE NETTING DEFENDING THEASE AREAS FROM THE DRIVING RANGE IN TOTAL DISREPAIR. SOMEONE IS GONNA GET HURT BAD AND IF YOU SEE IT HAPPEN HELP THE VICTIM (AND THAT'S WHAT HE WILL BE, MANAGMENT HAVE HAD THIS POINTED OUT MORE THAN ONCE) SUE AND BE A WITTNESS. ALSO, GO IN AND COMPLAIN THIS NEEDS FIXING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
The course is locted near the ocean
The course is good for the price and being located by the ocean it's cooler during the summer.
Nice simple course
I really enjoyed the course we were behind a slow twosome who let us through after 6
Then it was wide open under 4 hours
Course played well it had rained the night before so some soggy areas but greens were quite receptive - I had heard it was very dry before so that can be a factor I'm sure
pretty good
There were 2 greens that need to be worked on, but most of the course was in great shape
Enjoyable round
the greens were very challenging
overall the course was in really good shape pace of play was awesome and the starter was very friendly.
