About
The David L. Baker Golf Course is an affordable public course located in Fountain Valley. It has an approachable layout that is versatile enough to appeal to a range of different skill levels. No two holes are alike but all of the greens and fairways share the same excellent conditions. Water has a prominent presence on this executive golf course with lakes and ponds running alongside many of the holes. The sloped greens are lightning fast and the fairways are tightly manicured. Beside the greens lurk treacherous sand traps that are just waiting to swallow errant shots. Although there are some tricky holes, the layout is gentle enough for beginners. It is an enjoyable and affordable round that offers excellent short game practice, no matter what skill level.

11/28/20 Review
Pros:
Burgers/Sandwiches excellent
Grateful we could play by ourselves (2 of us) and not get paired up.
Love the short distances.
Cons:
Condition/maintenance has declined a lot. Grass/dirt pretty bad.
We saw 2 dead rotting possums on course. Blood, flies, gross.
Strange:
3 distance tee boxes all pushed together to same point. So no handicaps/yardage differences.
Small 18
It's s a nice course to work on your short game. All par 4's are drivable if your woods are long enough or driver is straight. Greens are nice and fast. So be right when you're reading your putts. Only downside is no par 5s. Would play again but not for $48.
Pace f Play
Super slow. They need a marshal to move people along. Other than that, the course is great.
nice course
course was in pretty nice conditions, some holes were over watered but fairways and greens were in fairly good conditions. tees were pushed all the way forward which kind of sucked, made the course a lot shorter. but overall a fun experience.
Silver Star Jack
For anyone who needs to work on control with short game my only grief is early morning tees aren't set for the Silver, White, Blue and distance markers would be nice however with how short the course is make it not necessary if you can grip it and rip it.
Not Worth it
It’s about 30$ to golf but thats what you get. Very slow pace, tee offs all messed up and all tees moved up to shortest tee off, bumps and divots all over the green, geese poop everywhere. If it was 15$ I’d say its worth it.
Golf course is in bad condition
Is not worth 41 dollars for walking plus they are airing the golf course punching hols all over .
Some of the greens needed repairs. But met some great playing partners
i have always enjoyed playing DLB, although short, it always challenge your shots
Only problem was that most of the tee boxes were pretty beat up, aside from that it was an overall good experience.
