Perfect weather
Used cart

The cart paths are poorly though out.

I did not notice any improvement on this course since I last played here about 15 years ago. If anything, the conditions of the fairways, bunkers and rough were worse. Most of that is pretty much par for the course (excuse the pun) for LA-area golf courses. But the most annoying (and somewhat unique) characteristic of this particular course is the way the carts paths are designed in such a way that all carts must follow each other in single file. You cannot pass other carts because there are sidewalls on both sides of the cart path. This is utterly stupid in my opinion. particularly when there is a mix of players who play different tees. If a forward tee player gets stuck behind carts that play the back tees, they have to wait for them to get into their carts and move forward before they can get close to their tees. This is highly inefficient and very annoying.

Needs help

What is going on with their roof/ buildings around the course? I’ve heard so much about this course and was shocked to hear they haven’t fixed their roof / on course structures in over 3 years. Completely unacceptable and such an eye sore. For a course that everyone says is impossible to get a tee time, I was totally dumbfounded to see the condition of the buildings. They have the money… repair your roof!!! Greens were good which is important but took 5 hours to finish a round… smh

Beautiful afternoon

Great course if you can get a teatime. Fairway divots or touch of an issue aside from that conditions were great pace. Play for twilight was amazing. Finished 15 holes in three hours.

Punched greens and no alerts anywhere

No mention of punched greens from GolfNow. Very disappointed. Course is in decent condition but the greens need at least 3-4 weeks.

Got a hot tee time but wouldn’t have played if I knew it was all sand green.

The Legendary Rancho Park

Always a great day when you have a tee time here. One of the fastest rounds I’ve ever played, which also happened to be a lucky day three hours and 45 minutes. Win win for sure! The only thing they can improve is to finish the construction on their pro shop and restaurant.

The Great Rancho Park

One or the most played courses in America due to it being one of the only public 18 hole courses in West LA. My home course so definitely love it. Arnold Palmer shot a 12 on 18 at the LA open FYI
