Terrible Pace Of Play

We had a 10:40am tee time and were placed behind a group of 6. The group was filming every shot, causing us to be 40 minutes behind pace of play. 4 groups all backed up due to this one group the course allowed to do this filming.

We were informed we would receive 50% off the round that took 6.5 hours but it never happened.

Terrible experience, will not be back.

Long & Straight

Pros: Overall, the course was in good condition, especially the greens. Fairways were respectable for a public course. We played in about 4 hours 20, teeing off at 10:20am on a busy Tuesday. Not bad at all.

Cons: The rough on March 17 was way up, so we were losing balls that rolled into the second cut. That got frustrating, but that is also just golf. Koiner plays much longer than EO Bay, so if you aren't bombing drives, then better have a strong long-iron game. Numbers 1, 9, and 18 are pretty meh, given the proximity to the stadium and that they likely receive the most foot traffic. With the exception of about 3 holes, the course is dead straight and flat. Completely forgettable. Get a tee time at Harding or Wilson for less money.

Tournament Ready

Course improvements: They laid down sod in areas that used to be dirt fairways, bunkers are soft and sandy, greens were being sanded, tee boxes fertilized.

They're getting ready for the Men's Championship in 2 weeks ish time, greens are fast rn.

Player Brookside - Koiner for the first time in a few years. The course was in great condition. Fairways were plush and the greens were smooth and fast. Pace of play was amazing m, finished the round in under 4 1/2 hours. Finished the day with lunch in the clubhouse. Brookside is a Southern California gem!

Conditions & Staff

Over the past 3 years, this course went downhill fast. I used to pay for the players card and brookside mens club but some, not all, of the staff do not treat paying members with respect. Theres this one woman in particular that works carts and ive had multiple arguments with her. Shes the Paul Blart of Brookside. Cant miss her. She looks like she hasnt slept in days. She thinks shes hot stuff with her walkie talkie and enforces rules she doesnt follow herself. Aside from that lady, the course conditions are not like they used to be. Since the golf course mgmt treats the course like a parking lot whenever they have an event or grounds for a musical festival, the holes next to the clubhouse are beaten to a pulp and therefore unplayable. Really really sad to see a course that i grew up on to be treated like this.. but the new owners are only interested in making money in ways unrelated to golf.

not good

Brookside can usually blame the course conditions on ucla tailgating but the season hasn’t even started. Almost every hole had dirt around the greens, not grass. This place has gone downhill and the price for this is way too high. I knew something was wrong when I found a tee time the night before we played. Won’t be back anytime soon.

Horrible Conditions

I’ve been playing here my whole life and this is the worst I’ve seen it, the fact they’re charging full price is absolutely criminal.

They let rose bowl events park on the course..

Food is great and staff are friendly but that’s about it

Absolute DOG track
