Challenging Greens

The Fairways are sloped towards the ocean, the greens are fast and slippery, you're always second guessing your putts but scenic views of the ocean and sunset, not bad for the twilight price

Its how I Remember it

Haven't played here in 25 years but the views are still the most beautiful of any public course in L A County. Greens rolled true and were quick. Lies were challenging at times with severe slopes on several holes. Overall, a wonderful experience...can't wait to play again.

Fond Memories

I had not played this course for twenty five years . I saw.

an early tea time and jumped on it. Still beautiful and still a great value.Although there were some bare spots in the fairways , mostly it was in good shape...especially for the money. Looking forward to the next time I play It.

And it won't be twenty five years!

Gorgeous view but slow pace

The ocean view is the reason that I came to try this course. Fairway condition is the typical public course standard. Not too much to expect. The pace of play is well below other public courses around LA.

Been a while.

Love this track. Hadn’t played it since the early 2000’s and want to kick myself. The condition of the track is very good considering the amount of play it gets. The greens are great, bunkers good and fairways good. The views are insane. Working man’s Torrey Pines/Sandpiper. The pro shop staff are great and the young lady in the restaurant was awesome. Super friendly and nice. Would like to be back every week.

Pace is a Joke

I asked the starter about the pace and he laughed at me.

After 3 and a half hours and only the front 9, i gave up and went home. The staff needs to double down on ambassadors, because unless it changes, I and many others wouldn't play here.

Beware of Marine Layer

Golf course will not refund you even if marine layer causes course to be unplayable. Played 6 holes and deemed not eligible for refund or rain check. There was no visibility at tee box to see hole in front of you.

They ruined the view!

Signature hole 15 green, the famous backdrop over the cliff has been ruined by a driving range type 50-foot tall fence they built in the last year, apparently to stop errant balls from flying onto rooftops below. Those are some serious metal poles!! There’s also an added netting that runs along the next tee on 16. But I hear they’ve already had problems with it due to the hawks that would fly into the netting, getting themselves caught in it, unable to escape and choking. So sad. Anyway, that famous hole is ruined by this giant ugly fence.

POP was 5 hours in the afternoon after a 15 minute delay teeing off, on a Tuesday!! Waited on every shot. Every shot. So sad.

Course is not in good shape at all, it’s the typical Los Verdes conditions with patchy, clumpy grass and dried out dirt everywhere, hardly any rough down the sides so for people who hit errant shots it would run off to the next fairway or off the course, as usual.

The greens were hit or miss, some were firm and others were spongy moist, but most of them, except for may be the first green, were all kinda slow and way too bumpy due to the moisture sponge causing footprints, the ball would Plinko all over the place.

The driving range had a problem with their machine at first, they couldn’t provide balls. $15 for a half bucket of mostly trashed balls on mats is highway robbery. These courses are raking in the cash and are not putting it back in to look after the place, the restaurant-bar was packed at the end of the day with the usual rowdy drunks, clearly raking in the cash there too. So sad.

They ruined the view!!

Had no idea that they had built a giant 50 foot driving range type fence wrapping the back of the signature hole 15. It’s totally ruined the view. And I heard that they already had problems with the fence where the hawks were flying into them and killing themselves because they aren’t able to escape the netting. So sad.

Course is the same as it always has been. Poorly maintained fairways and dirt rough. Greens bumpy like crazy today, inconsistent from hole to hole, one would be dry and firm and another would be moist and spongy.

POP was awful, waited on every shot all afternoon. Teed off 15 minutes late and ended with the typical 5 hour round.

Dunno why people put up with this debacle.

The range had problems with the machine so the balls couldn’t be dispersed at first. $15 for a medium bucket of janky balls, so ridiculous. Highway robbery.

Not worth the hazy view of the ocean from way high above the cliffs anyway.

It’s packed because there’s plenty of locals to fill the tee times, since if you live anywhere in this area all you have is this one course, the other is Trump and 98% of people aren’t going to pay that price over there.

But, there has to be a limit on skill level. It’s ridiculous to watch people play the back tees when they can’t even get the ball off the ground, and then they also have no concept of etiquette whatsoever.
