Slow did not finish
It was slow did not finish actually had a six Some in front of us no supervision
Please Warn When Punching
They were punching the Tee Boxes today. They should have warned us as courses do when punching greens. At least leave a couple of patches to hit from. Could not get footing on little pellets.
Easy course, hard to read greens
Course is in good condition but plays slow and has little food services. Had to go into club house and get an expensive but good tasting hot dog.
Simple Layout - 6 hour Round
Second time playing here, the course layout is quite simple, condition of the course was fair / good, but the the pace of play is unbearable. I had a 10am tee time Teed off about 30 mins late. Had to wait on every hole (some less than others), in the end played until 130pm (3.5 hours past scheduled tee time) and had finished 11 holes. I had to pick up and leave. Won’t play this course again unless they stop allowing 5 somes, or get an extremely early tee time.
Slow. Very slow
The course is gorgeous and fun to play but the pace of play is terrible. Nearly every hole tempts the hackers to wait for the green to clear when they're 240 out... Took almost 3 hours to get through 9.
This course has wide open fairways
Great fun and enjoyable course. If your looking for a good time and fun place to play your next round. Than look no further. Big Rec is fun and easy for
Any handicap golfer. Had a great round even though I shot more dbl than pars. Still always fun at big Rec.
Rec Park is an ok muni but overall good value
Rec Park is an ok course. Not terrible but not great. It’s good enough for a casual round of golf. It has some challenging holes but most are straightforward. Conditions are usually decent to good. I can’t say a ton of negative things about the course and I would play it again but you just need to know going in what to expect. Tough to find something in the South Bay that is great in terms of pace of play and conditions but Rec Park will give some of what you need.
Decent
Basic muni course.. tee’d off about 20 min late but after we got going the pace was okay!!
Make sure to tee off early though (before 710am) or good luck to ya!!!
Wed afternoon
Took a friend who was visiting from out of country. Past couple times I have played it has been a bit slow, starting around 2pm. I recommend walking since with carts you get stuck waiting too much.
Golf
It was a majestic round. Not a cloud in the sky as we embarked on our journey thru out the round. The birds were singing and the squirrels were frolicking across the amazing landscape. An enjoyable relaxing round with a comfortable pace of play that would bring a smile to Brooks Koepka
Fun great course
Fairways were in great condition and the greens as well. We played at 1130 on a Friday so amazing we never waited . Loved it and would absolutely play there again
Nice day
A little slow at first, pace picked up and finished in 4 hrs.
Get out and play this course!!
Fine course, very friendly
Out of the Long Beach courses, Big Rec would be considered the easiest: not a ton of trouble, only real protection are some hills and length.
If you're looking for a tough day, skip Big Rec.
If you're looking for a relaxing round, Big Rec will be fine.
PoP is good really early (6AM start can finish in nearly 3.5 hours), but can back up later in the day.
Nice
Good grounds keeping but bunkers need attention ASAP.
Greens in good shape.
Perfect Sunday Round with friends
Greens in good condition, perfect pace of play. An all around great day.
Gal at pro shop had her A game on and managed the tee times perfectly.
