Meadowlark Golf Course
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.

Very Enjoyable
Had a very wonderful time
very nice course
greens were in good shape and will go back again
Nice afternoon.
Only complaint is the same as always. Slow play. Also toward end of day. Hole hoppers that got in front of us on ten and played extremely slow. Killing our time to play back nine.
They really need to watch tht come 330-4pm.
Very slow pace. Overbooked golf course.
I played this course twice. The first time, I bought a voucher thru Groupgolfer. Booked a tee time in the summer months. Delayed tee time start because they didn't have carts. Took 5 hours to play 9 holes. I stop playing after the ninth. Second time was paying full price on 11/18/14 for a 12:20 tee time. My friend wanted to play this course so I gave in. Had to wait until they have carts available again. They know they have this issue but did not address it. Again, it took 5 hours to finish 10 holes and it was too dark to continue. Never playing this course again.
Too slow
The pace of play was unacceptable. It took almos six hours to play 18 holes.
Nice layout
Enjoy playing this course a lot of variations in the holes, greens are rounded and hard to stay on with longer irons. I play there at least once a week it is very convenient to Huntington Beach.
Great staff
Course offers several challenges with water; however, overall was a fun course.
Staff was excellent and very helpful with putting me with a great party of three others.
First time
Friday 10 am Tee off.
Was fairly Easy. considering I have a 18 handicap. I came off the front nine with a 39. Lots of pars, and I was playing the Back tees, and my drive is only 220 yards after the roll. I consider it was the condition of the fairways. When the fairways have nice grass from one end to the other, I can actually hit the ball with some accuracy. Ended the round with an 84. Aahh almost forgot, the greens are very small targets coming in.. Good luck !!
fun course
fun course most holes not to hard but some you have to be smart lay up at lest i do ? they punched the greens so they were slow but should be really good in a week or two really good price great value.
Forgiving fun course
Very open course with some fun holes. Course goes from flat to up and down hills, great deals ob golfnow, i paid$12 for 18 holes
Lucky Day
I had an itch to play and it rained which cleared the course out. I arrived at 1:40 and finished by 5:30. That NEVER happens at Meadowlark, especially on a Saturday. The course doesn't drain real well, and I was surprised to see a lot of standing water, which helped to explain how quiet the course was. I was very lucky to get out on one of my favorite little home town courses on a Saturday and a very reasonable rate.
very late start
I reserved time with cart at 12:30pm have to wait till 1:30pm they didn't have enough cart for your reservation .
Firts Time Playing With my son
My son and I we have A great time together, Playing at Meadowlark Golf Course, we started at 5:00 pm, we play 14 holes before it got dark. Over all the Golf course it was Great.
Why is this course so wet?!?!?!
We are in the middle of a drought here in California but this course looks like it's been getting 5" of rain for a week. Some areas where so soaked I had to walk around it so I did not sink. Bunkers were mostly wet sand. One I saw had 4/5" of standing water at the bottom. Super slow play is always the case here due to a few short par 4's and a couple tough par 3's.
Greens were in pretty good shape.
Good Day of Golf
Every once in a while I'll find a great deal here and today I found a round with a cart for $18. Couldn't pass it up. The pace of play for the day was faster than normal and the weather was amazing with a little wind making the course a little tougher. There are some muddy sections here and there, but the course is in pretty good conditions. Overall it was a good day of golf, especially for $18.
Near by locals
Great a round of golf for price !!
Will come back to play some more and refer some one
Slowest round of my life
Not a bad course, really short and only two par fives though. The worst part was it took over 6 hours to play so if that's your idea of a fun Saturday it's perfect, but if you want to play without waiting this is not your course.
Short but fun course
Enjoyable course with changes in elevation and small and contoured greens.
Not long, but definitely not easy.
Meadowlark is fun little test of golf. The course is only about 5500 yds. but the greens are challenging & usually in good shape. it would be nice if people fixed ball marks, but that's an issue everywhere!
It gets slow sometimes and there are no marshalls to keep up the pace but overall I enjoy a round here. If you get in some of the thick stuff around the small crowned greens, you might be looking at a double, so practice your chipping before playing here.
Staff is always friendly and the beer is always cold.
Fun round.
Very friendly staff, got us early by 45 Min. A very good day of golf for a good price. Jim
