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.

Good bang for your buck....for us older fellas

Don't want to struggle on the back nine cause you played 4000 yards and 50 strokes already? Play David Baker. I have a weak back and a full course is just a little too long. I like this place cause it's still 18 holes but shorter and you don't spend the whole day on the course. You can still pull the big dog out and try driving greens too. All good fun and good value in my book.

Won't play there again.

Sub par driving range, sub par fairways, bunkers and greens, nothing special to note.

Poor conditions

Poor conditions from the tee boxes to the greens. Lacking some love, might be a little while before I come back, especially at this price.
