First Time Playing

1st time at Balboa GC was fun

Pro shop personnel were friendly, efficient and professional.

Cart lady was very nice.

The course was in pretty nice condition as were the greens. Although I feel the holes on the greens must have been a little too small as my ball didn't fall often enough on the first putt. I'm sure it wasn't my putting

Yes, we will go back soon .

Well, manicured and maintained

For the price point of a city municipal course

It doesn’t get much better than this

Fairways are trimmed and groomed as well as the greens are very well-maintained

Thank you for the maintenance and upkeep. It is a pleasure to play Encino/Balboa.
