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.

Perfect greens
Greens recently went through aeration and it’s perfect. Just little slow but perfect green. Finished 18 in like 3:30 hours
Great twilight course
My go-to course. Can leave the driver at home and play irons, or play your own tips and utilize the driver. Pace of play is decent, except many players seem to loop back and play multiple times. I frequently walk the course after 7 pm which is when the last carts go out. Usually I can get ~12 holes in from 7:30-10 pm which is fine by me, but there are is rarely a marshall. Often times we are met with random cart drivers (who should be long gone) on early holes -- especially holes 6-9.
For $15 twilight you can't really beat this place, and the course is lit which keeps me coming back weekly. The club house guys are all friendly and the driving range is nearly always full.
All greens are playable. They still have airiation dimples and m
All greens are payable. They still have airiation dimples and fertilizer on them.
Greens under repair.
I don't mind paying Green fees, but they should have at least said something to us when we were checking in with the starter that the greens were under repair and that 4 out of 9 greens on the back 9 were closed and they moved the cups into the fairway so you were putting on the fairway. They had heavily spread fertilizer on all the other greens. It was like putting on sand. They should have given you the choice to play under those types of conditions or offer a discount.

Great beginners course
Had a great time playing for the first time and everything was set up perfectly and went smoothly
First timer
First time coming here with a foursome. Very easy, flat and straight course. Nothing too challenging. Cart girl came around fairly often enough, and the club house staff were courteous. The only reason I have 3 stars for staff friendliness was because the Marshall was riding our group and telling us to pick up pace but we literally could not go any faster because of the groups backed up in front of us. We told him this and he still insisted we move faster. Other than that I would still come back here for a easy day of play.
