Los Lagos at Costa Mesa Golf & Country Club

We were made a 5 some but had 4 separate carts The round went the quickest it has for me in a few years! Made the course more enjoyable to play Thank You Management team!

So slow play due to allow 5 persons play on sat before 1 pm.

Great golf course and Money worth

But playing time was toooo long.

Overall, excellent golf course

Too many twosomes very slow play didn’t get to finish tea off at 4:10

Around 7 AM sprinkler system came on and made the course unplayable for the next hour and a half. Called the front desk and was told that no one knew how to turn the system off. Spoke to the Marshall, he said only the maintenance supervisor could change the setting and he was on vacation. Temporary sprinklers were set up on one of the putting greens, we noticed it had been running for over two hours and flooded the entire green. no one seem to be in charge of the golf course.

Los Lagos in very good condition, greens near perfect, but no marshall so 5:15 pop.

Chaotic at the first tee box. Multiple groups with the same time scheduled or and a group that was late

It was discouraging and almost made me want a refund

The course is great but the pace is just way to slow

Let me start with the good: the course itself is in outstanding condition. Fairways were lush and well-manicured, greens rolled true and fast, and the overall layout is genuinely enjoyable. If you’re judging purely on the quality of the turf and course design, this is a 4- or 5-star experience.

Unfortunately, everything else drags it down significantly.

We finished 18 holes in just under 6 hours. Six hours. That’s not a round of golf — that’s a full workday. Every hole had groups stacked up waiting to tee off, and there was zero course management to address it. Not a single marshal made an appearance the entire round. No one was moving groups along, checking on pace, or addressing the bottlenecks forming at nearly every par 3 and par 5.

Making matters worse, there were no beverage or snack carts circulating the course. Bring your own water and snacks, because you won’t find any relief on the course.

The fix here isn’t complicated: deploy marshals to actively manage pace of play, and consider reducing the number of tee times or increasing the gap between groups. The course is clearly booking beyond its comfortable capacity, and paying customers are the ones absorbing the cost of that decision in lost time and frustration.

This place has genuine potential and a strong product on the turf side. But until the operations team addresses pace of play, it’s hard to recommend — especially for anyone with a finite amount of time in their day.

The course was in overall good condition and the greens were in very good shape. Pace of play was good.

Played early, 7:30 AM and played as group of 5. Was worried it would take 5 hrs+ but after first couple holes it opened up and we played in 4 hrs 10 minutes. Played with 84 yr old and a couple other regulars and had a great round. I’ll be back

Best courses for the $$ by far, can play a little slow at times, but no big deal.

Great course if you're the first tee time, if not, good luck. You'll be enjoying a 6+ hour golf day on a mediocre course that cost way too much for everything included.

They desperately need to spread out the tee times by 5 minutes just to make it relatively enjoyable.

Played Los Lagos for the first time in a few years. My game wasn’t great but the course still is. It was in very good condition, plush and green. The greens were rolling nicely and the fairways are still wide and fair. The pace is players a little slow but otherwise, a wonderful day of golf.
