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.

You get what you pay for
Will not come back here unless the pace play improves. Fairways were pretty poor. Greens are OK. expect to wait on every hole. 5+ hour even on a weekday. Green fee’s are cheap especially if you are senior or junior.
Tony,
Our apologies for missing the mark on your recent round at Meadowlark. We have been working hard to get our pace of play better across the board and will be speaking with our marshals to ensure things continue to improve. We hope you give us another shot!
Short in yardage but small and difficult greens
This course is not as easy as it sounds due to it having small amd difficult greens. Playing conditions are good, slightly above average very nice course
Thank you so much for the 4-Star rating and kind words about our course here. Can't wait to have you out for another round!
Great local course
We enjoy Meadowlark. It’s local, the course is in good condition and pretty. It can be a bit overcrowded but usually moves at a good pace. It’s pricey though most Cali courses are this time of year. Staff is always pleasant and the little cafe has good food!
Thanks for the positive review and 4-Star rating!
Thanks for the 4 Star rating!
Meadowlark golf
Driving was full but pace of play was good. Had some challenging holes but over over like the layout
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 Star rating and some kind words!
Super slow
Went on a Friday morning tee off 618 ended up teeing off 640 play the front nine and 2 1/2 hours And left after Front nine second group ahead of us had almost 3 holes open Everyone sliced and they were playing from the blues
We are sorry to hear the pace of play wasn't up standard for your round. We do our best to maintain great pace but in the future, please do give the pro shop a call if you ever experience any issues and can't find a marshal.
Great casual round
This is a great confidence building Course. Most the holes are fairly short and fairways are forgiving. Overall conditions are good.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and 4 Star rating. We appreciate the inclusive nature of our course here for all skill levels and look forward to having you back out for another round!
Great Course!
This is a great course for beginners to intermediate golfers. There were some “tour pros” behind us who kept hitting into us on almost every hole which wasn’t ideal. I’m sure they drove a lifted truck. Also the Ambassador on the course was following us for a few holes even though there were people ahead of us which was annoying. Other than that the course was in good condition and wasn’t too expensive for a short par 4 course. We had a blast. Shot an 84
Thanks for the 5 Star rating and we are so happy to hear your enjoyed your round with us. Can't wait to have you out for another round and hopefully those "tour pros" won't be out there this time!
Thanks for the 4-Stars!

Course conditions have deteriorated
I haven’t played here in nearly a year but conditions were pretty bad. Lost a ball in the middle of a fairway as they had a swamp crossing the 11th fairway. Tee boxes moved, areas roped off all over the place. Also they insist on having grounds grew out mowing and feritilizing in the middle of the busiest times, slowing down pace of play. Took some fertilizer pellets to the face driving cart too close to the truck. They need to get their drainage better managed
We apologize for your experience not meeting your expectations on your recent round. Unfortuantely the 40+ inches of rain we've received over the last 1 1/2 years has really taken it's toll on our 100 year old golf course. We hope you'll give us another shot as we head into the summer months and things start to dry out for us as the ground water levels start to drop.
Thanks for the 4 Stars!
Thank you for leaving us a 5-Star rating!
Almost a 3 hour front nine due to the men`s club tournament. Back nine almost as bad.
Funny was that a bunch of the men`s club members were complaining to each other about slow play. Go figure. It`s the not me syndrome.
We have made a concerted effort to have our marshal at the course for longer hours on the weekend and still this can happen at times. We truly apologize for the slow pace and hope you give us another shot to show you a better experience!
Thanks for the 5-Stars!
Slow (fun) afternoon
Course is not a long one where you pull out a driver on every hole, but it is interesting and can be made challenging based on conditions: tee/pin placement, use of water and elevation . It’s a great little course and the greens can get challenging. 11th and 12th holes have seen better days and have some water damage in repair. Grass overall is prone to flier lies outside the fairway which can make club selection a trick, but comes with the territory. Unfortunately took 5 hours where the wind on some elevated holes kept groups stacked up on tee boxes. Fun course. Love coming down from LA to play every once in a while.
Thank you so much for the review! I can't disagree with a single thing you said as pace can get slow at times and the 11th/12th holes are still in repair mode from the storms of the winter due to the high ground water levels. Can't wait to have you back for another round!
