My favorite executive course.

Fun holes par 4s make it worth while. Also hole #7 over the lagoon has a great view.

Fun 9 hole course

Fun 9 hole course. Good price on hot deals and even better if u r Long Beach resident. Good place to practice your short game with some decent par 4s. Nice to get a few pars or birdies once in a while. Recommend for easy walkable course

Ouch

I snagged my right forearm on the metal frame of the second hole tee box sign. The gash was an open wound 1 inch by one-half inch.

I had to leave the course and go to Urgent Care.

Great course great price

Golfed here many times. Left plenty of birdies for you all. Always a great value and course is in very good shape. Greens are smooth except for you all that don’t fix your ball marks

I fix them though kinda of my way to keep in shape for my next round. Also love the Golf Pass APP. Use it all the time

Great for a mid-day round.

Well kept course with some fun holes. Pace of play was pretty good, was able to finish 9 holes and get back to work on time. Definitely worth it for price.
