Had a great time playing here last weekend.
The fairways were well maintained and the greens were fast and true.
Pace of play was smooth, and we finished 18 holes in just under four hours.
Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the day.
The course offers a nice mix of challenging holes and scenic views.
Definitely looking forward to coming back soon!

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.

Greens suck
This course is for hacks. Greens are slow and bumpy. Other courses in Long Beach are in fantastic condition. Stay away from this place.
