Second Round - will return

Staff was VERy friendly and helpful. The course was in good condition with one exception - the greens are in nice shape but are somewhat “bumpy” making it difficult to judge the speed of the putt. The course gets a lot of play. We enjoyed the round and will return.

Course conditions surprisingly good

When I first played this course a year and a half ago, it was a dump. No grass in the fairways, no bathrooms, no snack shop, terrible roughs.

I’ve played there twice in the last month and it was a completely different place. Fairways were in great shape, especially compared to Alondra, encino/ balboa. The rough was even better than the rough at Los verdes.

Pace of play was slow- about 4.5 - 5 hours. Too many groups on the course who don’t play ready golf. But considering the course conditions, I’d go there over Alondra any day of the week now.

Waste of time and money

This will be my last time playing at Chester Washington. I paid $61 for my round and was only able to play 9 holes because the pace of play was atrocious. There was a 4 group pile up on the 7th hole that destroyed the entire round. It took 3 hours to play 9 holes. For $61 I would expect a much better experience. If this is how the rounds move at this course, they should cut there prices in half.

Tee off 30 minutes past booked time, 7 HOUR ROUND

We teed off 30 minutes late. Every single hole was backed up by 2 groups. We walked off after 13 holes. Literally would’ve taken 7 hours to finish 18.

I guess that’s what you get when you allow tee times to be booked every 4 minutes. Will not be back for a while.

Chester Washington golf course is a really nice course, well taken care of, pace of play was good. Sometimes it can be a bit slow but mainly a good pace.

Really gone down hill

I've regularly played this course since several years ago. It's really gone down hill since I first played. The staff are rude, the pace of play is slow, the greens are mediocre, and the bunkers are mud half the time. I am constantly losing balls because people are grabbing them and there are random people walking the course half the time (don't leave your stuff unattended). The staff seem to think it's everyone else's problem but their own that this place is garbage. Might be time to reassess where the problem areas really are and start making corrections. Will never play her again thanks to 3 bad experiences in a row.
