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.

State of Starter
Showed up on time and was sent out to play by this gorgeous woman.At tee two groups of replay men's club members scooted in front waited for starter to say something nothin occurred took matters in own hands and requested to t off before the two fivesomes and was allowed.T'd off and a couple joined me upsetting the two groups and starting a very slow round of 12 holes of golf the two groups joined together to form a group of 10 yes 10.Left the course at this point the group roamed from hole to whichever hole they wanted to play.WOW!!!!
Fist time finished this cousre under 4 hours
The pace of play was the best I have ever played at this golf course. Maybe because everyone was in the bar. couldn't get a beer if I tried, and I did three times with no luck. waited 5 to 10 mins. each time with no luck. needed to keep up pace of play. No refreshment cart to be found either. Oh well saved myself some $$$
Good value for the money.
Used golf now app. Very well maintained and nice pro shop.
Help us out here
The course itself wasn't bad by any means but just overbooked in every aspect. Our round took 6 hours...never saw a single Marshall to help initiate any type of slow play problems from the people playing two balls all day long. Took over an entire days vacation for a course that's less than 5500 yards. Not enjoyable....
Pace of Play
Overall the course is in good shape and fair. However, I was extremely disappointed in the pace of play. We were stacked 2-3 deep on every single hole with no marshal in sight. I will not be coming back unless I have absolutely nothing to do for the day because the round took over SIX hours not including the warmup time on the range.
The staff are all excellent,,,
The computer was down so scheduling issues caused very slow play. This has not happened when I have played before. Normally a great experience.
Busy course.
I have never seen a course so busy in my life. Tee time was 11:45, started at 12:00 no carts. We finished at 5:30. This was on a Sunday afternoon. My wife and I were paired up with two nice golfers who made the day go by faster. The course was in good shape. You could miss right or left on most holes and still recover. On about 5 holes there were 3 sets of golfers waiting to tee off. With all this going on we still had fun. Met some wonderful people that shared the love of golf. On vacation, time was not an issue. Any other occasion this maybe a big issue.
Meadowlark
Solid round of golf for 20$. True greens. Wait wasn't bad on a Wednesday at 3:00 and finished with plenty of daylight left
Avoid this course if you can
I've played a few times here, and so far the closest I've started to my scheduled tee time was 15 minutes after (one was 40 minutes after). Multiple groups have always been at the 1st tee waiting to go (no pressure).
Because they pack in groups so tightly, I have yet to have a round under 5 hours here. I've played at various times and days, and it doesn't seem to matter. My latest was Wednesday, mid-morning, and I finished in a bit over 5 and a half hours. Shocking.
No Marshall
Played front 9 under 2 hours. After the turn random groups and single's came out of the trees???? Back 9 took over 3 1/2 hours!
Fun
Some friends and I decided to play this course since it is local. It was a beautiful day and the course was fun. The only con was the pace of play due to overbooking. I would say after the 9th hole things started to pick up, but you can't really complain for the price. It is an overall good course and I would play it again.
nice, open course.
Fun course to pull out the driver. Easy to hit around the hazards.
Great improvement !!!!!!
I have played here numerous times but yesterday was just a GREAT round of golf here at Meadowlark,the staffs,restaurant were very friendly and helpful,fairway and of course the green were in immaculate condition,thank you so mucho will continue to take friends here where ever I have guess in town.
good time
course play was good. Did not have to wait. It went
very fast!
Great Value
For $29 on a Sunday at noon, we got more than our moneys worth. The staff was friendly, the food was good, and a killer bloody mary. My friends that played with me also enjoyed it. The greens were in good shape also.
All in all, enjoyed it!
this course is good for beginner to intermediate
I played with my friends who were mostly beginners. They're all afraid of their playing, but it was really nice people surroundings. We really enjoyed and have a great weather.
Friday 90º Golf
Huntington Beach is a good place to play golf at 90º
Meadowlark
Great deal for the course and a great play to play in the warm weather, close to the beach.
Best round at Meadowlark
I had a great time playing Meadowlark this past Sunday on Mothers Day. Have played here a few times before and always enjoy it. The driving range has nice mats, a chipping green and putting green. Finished 18 holes in exactly 4 hours, which is a lot quicker than the previous times playing here (sometimes 6+ hrs). The course was in great shape, thoroughly enjoyed the greens, as well as the fairways too. Staff is very kind, and Miranda (cart girl) made sure we had cold beverages throughout the day. Tough front pin location on hole 16 ( par 3 ), 150-160 into the heavy front wind, better make your first putt or your ball is coming back down the sloped green. Overall great time at Meadowlark.
