Great exec course

7 of 9 greens are very good. 2 not very good but getting better.

Couple of challenging holes. A par4 and 2 par 3s.

Elevation changes and a water hazard. Really more than an executive course.

Started playing here this year and keep coming back.

No restaurant:(

Fun couple of hours.

Everything is wide open and visible. The markers on the tee box are true. The greens are a bit faster than the practice green. Most the greens are true to the read. Most puts are fairly straight. A couple of the greens have tricky, quick, downhill putts that will turn sharply as the speed of the putt dies at the end. I enjoyed playing the course and the people ( both staff and players ) you meet are friendly.

Lil Rec is Good

9-hole Little Recreation Park is a fun course to play. There are sea breezes which make the course cool, even during the summer. The greens have slope and some hidden knolls. Putting is tricky and the turf can be snaggy. Therefore, success comes from getting approach shots below the hole. Good chipping and pitching is a must. Holes are short so approach shots, putting, and chipping are key.
