Los Verdes Golf Course

I’ve played here several times… this time was unbelievably surprising. This is just about the course conditions. The staff is always great - the location is inviting and the tee times still impossible to get. What I can’t believe is how incredibly poor the course conditions are. Tee boxes with no grass, fairways dry as a desert- really poor- greens diseased and former hole locations not cared for well. Greens looked they haven’t been cut or rolled. Many fairway spots were like hitting off cement. I know it’s the start of summer and I know LV has no water well but my goodness this has been a public course jewel for years and now it’s embarrassing. I finally got a tee time as a local and invited three friends from out of town and they kept looking at me like “this is the famous LV??”

Someone is really not on the job here. It’s not even summer yet. So disappointing.

The course is beautiful and scenic, weather permitting. I enjoyed the challenge of some of the longer holes. Being matched with local players was helpful and fun!

Paid for 18 holes and rentals for 18 holes then after 9 they close and I had to return clubs still paying full price.

the grass on the fairways is all dried up and a lot of bare ground. and greens were total mess because of the fungus. It was a terrible experience.

Couldn’t see the green grass on the fairway. Most of fairway was burned out.

The greens also have a fungus.

The traps were as hard as rock.

There was no maintenance at all.

Felt rushed the whole round and waited each hole too. Place was over booked. Fairways were dry and spotty. For a course overlooking the ocean, course could have been better. Over rated. I don’t think I would bother playing there again.

I’ve never felt so disrespected and humiliated at a golf course as I did at Palos Verdes Golf Club. A group of us came to enjoy a day of golf, only to be publicly harassed by the assistant manager—a Japanese man whose behavior was nothing short of aggressive, unprofessional, and discriminatory.

We were already informed of the foursome rule at the pro shop and followed instructions without issue—one of our players joined a different group as requested. But shockingly, that wasn’t enough for this assistant manager. He followed us to the first tee and began yelling at us repeatedly in front of everyone, despite us having already resolved the situation. He spoke to us as if we were criminals, not paying guests.

Even worse, he told the team behind us to “report” us if anything changed—like we were under surveillance. The entire situation felt targeted and racially motivated. We were treated with blatant disrespect and hostility for absolutely no reason.

This place clearly tolerates toxic behavior from its staff, and I will never step foot here again. If you’re looking for a place that values decency, professionalism, or basic human respect—stay far away from Palos Verdes Golf Club.
