Brookside Golf Club - C.W. Koiner Course

Long course in decent shape, fairways just ok, the greens were nice - fast as always and roll true. pace of play was excellent. Still a very, very nice public course in LA, one of the best.....some looong par 4's though so be warned. Only drawback was an overpriced grilled sausage - nowhere near worth the $10.......playing partner said the same after first bite of his too....

This is by far the worst course I’ve ever been to. There were balls flying everywhere while we were playing. The staff was extremely unprofessional. They made it extremely difficult to pay for the cart and tee time.

This was an absolute mess. Our tee time was pushed nearly an hour. Because of this we couldn’t finish 14 holes. I would have never played a course I couldn’t finish, especially for the price. Not only were we waiting for nearly and hour for carts and to tee off, a group was added ahead of us on 10. Super disappointed. The course was nice but it’s not worth the frustration.

I finally benefitted from scheduling errors at Brookside 1. I booked as a single with TeeOFF and got a great deal after the 20% promo, paying only $24.80 with cart at 12:20pm. When arriving I was sent directly to the tee, only to find out that the other Brookside starter had accepted a 4some at 12:20, maybe a walk-up or in-house reservation? No idea. Either way, this meant I got to play by myself. Course was open in front of me and I enjoyed every minute of my 3.5 hour round.

Brookside is doing a good job of keeping a volunteer Marshall on the 1st tee, as there's always arguments about who's next on the tee. Keep that person there at least until a 1/2 hour until twi-light and everyone will continue to start their round without the emotional downfall of having to hit your first shot immediately asserting your tee position.

Now if they could stop overbooking and/or making sure they only have 4 players for time slot, life on the 1st tee would even be greater.
