Beautiful Public Course

Rec Park continues to be one of the best value plays in LA. A great layout with some challenging holes on the front 9. Play was extremely slow, the group ahead of us was over a hole behind and not a single Marshall to be found. The cart girl was great, the snack bar at the turn were fast and quick. The starter was nice and let me play in an earlier tee time, even though the young lady at the check-in said there weren't any single spots open, but the next 5 foursomes had only three players.

Great course but slow play

A marshal to move slow play along would go a long way here.

Learn to honor your golf customers

I understand that golf is in its busiest time but that is no reason not to consider your patrons situation. Life changes constantly and we as humans have to adapt to those changes. When you work in the service industry the proper tendency is to treat your customers with respect and dignity. Long Beach Recreation Park staff seems to have forgotten that. A simple time change or a date change is not going to hurt the golf business of Long Beach Rec., the course is busy and booked from sun up to sun down. So Eric and Angel get a clue. Golf Now clearly understands that life happens and sometimes a change is needed. So that’s why I remain loyal to them because they are loyal to their customers.

Too expensive

For a non-LB resident, this course is too expensive. Its simply not worth $73 on a Wednesday.

Nice course

We walked rec 18 at 6:45 am. Nice course. Greens in excellent shape. We were not rushed at all nor did we have to wait for anyone ahead of us. The course is just tricky enough to pose a slight challenge.
