9 fun holes for a great value!

Second time playing Rec Park 9 & I absolutely love this course! Just enough forgiveness & challenge to make a truly enjoyable round of golf. Greens are in outstanding condition and roll true. Even with the drought, the greens keepers do an excellent job of keeping the course in great shape!

Very good

Easy & difficult corse mixed.

I only played 9 but next time I want to play 18.

Its just many homeless outside of golf course and the restroom is not able to use it ( in the middle point) because homeless are using very dirty.

However, the greens conditions were very good.

Good practice round

Good course for a quick practice round. Pace of play was steady. Greens were bumpy but that's because players are not doing their part in repairing their own divots. Friendly and professional staff. Best part was a nice ocean breeze kn a hot day.

New Greens

I played here about 4 months ago with terrible temporary greens on 4 of the 9 holes. New greens are finished and play well. Excellent value for an afternoon of quick golf!
