long part 4s

The course fairway is in excellent condition. The par 4s are pretty long which means that you pretty much have to have your driver on. A big slice will be trouble. The only negative review I have will be the greens.the greens are pretty small in size.

Typical Municipal Course

Here's my impression of this course. Pace of play is slow because many golfers here aren't educated as to what things they do that slow things down. The fairways and tees are bumpy. The greens are nice and lush but there are too many unrepaired ball marks. The sand traps had real sand in them (not dirt) which is nice. There are plenty of mature trees. The food at the clubhouse was good also. I upgraded from playing 9 holes to 18

Nice course

The staff was GREAT! They let us on as a twosome. One course had two groups ahead so they let us go out on the other one and finished up on the one we were supposed to be on.....I like when the staff goes with what is best to move the golfers along. Great Job! Started at 12:07 and ended at 3:40pm.

Great time playing here.

Been playing Whittier Narrows for over 2 years now. My friends and I always have a great time here. Great golf pace (3.5-4hr) rounds do to 3 nine hole courses. It's also well maintain. Fairways and greens are always trimmed and in fair conditions. We also enjoy the awesome deals. $30-$40 per round with cart is a great price. I've paid way more for way worst out there. So if you haven't played here. I recommend you do. You can't go wrong.

Very long round...

This course would be so much better if the pace of play could run at a decent rate. 5+ hours on a weekend, no matter what.

Nice greens horrible rough

Very nice greens.
Rough very challenging for public muni course.
My thoughts they don't want to spend the labor on cutting down
rough. Some areas of rough are unplayable for recreational players just wanting to go out and have fun. Not the US Open it's Rosemead... Hello? Spend the money on labor and time to cut down your rough.

Slow play and poor conditions on the Mountain course

I have played Whittier Narrows more than a dozen times in the past year, never having played the Mountain. This was the first time that I was forced to play a combination of Pine and Mountain. While Pine was in its typical condition which is well manicured along with terrific pace of play, Mountain was a completely different story. Condition of its tee boxes, fairways and the greens were very poor. It was night and day compared to the Pine and the River. I was also frustrated by the fact that it took over 3 1/2 hours to play 9 holes of Mountain whereas the the Pine took less than 2 hours. Try and avoid playing the Mountain. It's not worth your trouble.

Greens recently punched.

1:30 tee time. The greens need several more weeks to grow into a playable surface. Probably why it wasn't busy.

If I didn't get 40% off on Golf Now, I would not have played this course.

Everything from tee boxs to greens need attention on this course. The tee boxs are patchy grass and some dead grass with alot of dirt areas. The fairways are not "rolling" nor are they "green." They are just bumby. I think we spilled more beer than we drank driving through the fairways. The greens were green but very lumpy. Do not expect any thing close to a true roll. There are a lot of beginners on this course who don't know ettiquet and keep the pace of play very slow. We played for over 5 hours and could not finish because the sun set and the slow pace of play.
