Could be better.

The course is a family friendly style. A very nice family with 4 kids and their Dad was in front of me. Great place for them to learn the game. The greens were in pretty poor shape. No apron and ball makes everywhere. Not a good place to play if you are looking for a well maintained course.

High Hopes

This plays has the potential for being a fun par 3 course, however, it doesn’t hit the mark. The range mats you tee off from and real bad and the greens are in need of some serious TLC. I had fun for the most part and for $9 it’s not terrible.

Slow on Sunday

It’s like the only place to play. Lots of pressure on it from population. We made the most of it, and will play again because it’s one of two public places to play. 9 holes took 3-1/2 hours…

Slow

Good condition. Many kids and beginners. Took two hours to play first two holes with two groups backed up. Strangely it opens up after hole three for good flow. I heard that this is typical. Someone said it was busier than usual.

I paid twice

When I showed up I walked to the 18th hole and it was first time. The front was short and pointed.

I walked the East side and I let the man up front a I prepaid ( free99) using points. He said there is no such thing is prepaid… so I had to pay. That made me worried about the customer service and the communication between business office and greens staff. Don’t you know you have an account with Golfnow?

I’ll play. But now I know that there is no such thing as prepaid or discounts through Golfnow!!

Golfnow. May want to look into this.

Nice Gem in the middle of West LA

First time out here, but played the 18 hole course adjacent many times. Golfers are laid back at this course where golfers of all ages including juniors are learning the game or sharpening their short game. Attendant was friendly and flexible when we needed to grab a bite before our round. The overall layout is great for a par 3. Probably the best par 3 in the LA area that I have played. The greens are smaller so it provides a challenge. Average golfers only need an 8 iron and above to carry since the longest par 3 is 143 yards. Overall a great time.

My Initial Thoughts

This is a great course for working on your short game or for someone just starting out. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Play can slow down at holes #3 or #4, but all in all this is a fun par-3 course.

Pace of play can be maddeningly slow especially on holes 1-3/4. Not helped by the starter deciding to put a group of 5 right in front of us. Overall a fun course with a pretty good mix of holes in terms of difficulty.

Early Start

Get an early start and this is a fast nine holes or use it as an opportunity to slow down and practice.

Beware…some starters allow large groups to play. There was a group of 7 behind me.

So slow

It seems like they just want everyone’s money and do not care about pace of play or anything. Had a 5 some of children in front of me. Ended up quitting on hold 7 because there was a 5 group backup to tee off on hole 8 somehow. No Marshall or anyone regulating. People playing 2 to 3 balls per hole. Really going downhill
