Still the best 9 holes in LA County

Really great little course for Sunday golfers and those keen to master their mid and short game with plenty of driving opportunities. And they're strict about the pace of play, so its not as snagged as you might think it will be for a popular public course. Really beautiful and hole 7 is to die for with the backdrop of the Griffith Observatory

Scenic, challenging course

This course has a fairly low “slope rating” (level of difficulty), presumably because it has a lot of short par 4 holes and reasonably flat greens. But its many hills and actual slopes make this a harder course than some longer, flatter ones. I’m often hitting approach shots while standing at awkward angles, which is tough for someone like me who’s between a beginner and intermediate level.

Roosevelt

Played Roosevelt at 7:20am on a Sunday. Course was actually not backed up. Parking was easy to find for once. Group was able to tee off ahead of schedule. Didnt have to wait long per hole, about 4-5 min on Par-3’s. finished round at 9:30am. This may have just been one of those days where a lot of ppl might’ve been out of town.

Roosevelt Golf Course is a hidden gem. This 9-hole executive course is surprisingly challenging and offers a fun test for golfers of all levels. What really sets it apart are the stunning views—you can see the hills, downtown LA, and even the Griffith Observatory from various points on the course. It made for a truly memorable and enjoyable day. Highly recommend for anyone looking to play a quick round in a beautiful setting.

Pace of Play

Finished 4 holes in 2 and a half hours then left. 5 hours to finish 9 holes is insane.
