Golfer Reviews
Great time
2nd time playing here. The greens in summer 21 were a little dry and the fairway had some bad patches of dirt. That's all changed now in 2022. Compliments to the groundskeeper team. Will be back soon

Contrary to some current reviews, the course is not in good condition.
Played this course months ago and only went back after reading some of the more current reviews saying the course was in good condition. It’s not. Fairways are still roughly 60% grass 40% dirt. Be prepared to pick up and drop on a grass patch after hitting it down the fairway and ending up in dirt. The rough is US Open penal in some areas which leads to a slower pace of play as players look for their balls in four inches of rough. A guy in my group lost two sleeves and many of his lost balls were *just* off the fairway. The rough seems more of a course maintenance issue (if it’s not the course needs to update its slope/rating). In literally any given 5 square foot radius on the course you can find a dirt patch next to normal muni rough next to 4-5 inches of rough. I found myself in about 5 inches of rough about a foot off the green a few times. Don’t even get me started on the “sand” traps (see pic).
The only positive thing about the course is the twilight price and layout. But moving forward I’ll be taking my business to better/properly maintained courses. Also, the round was 4hr 50min on a weekday.

Good value
Great course of the price - mostly in good shape with only a few spots needing some love. Great layout, lots of fun.

It’s an embarrassment
This course used to be the course to play in the area but now it’s gone from a 10 to a -10. Bearways are horrible not one good soundtrap on the whole course on #11 the safety net along the homes looks like something from a horror movie.. Supposedly the guy that runs this course also runs Rio Hondo and I find that very hard to believe since RH is in great shape. But I guess he does not spend very much time here since it’s an embarrassment to the game of golf. If your in the area don’t bother even driving up the hill. I won’t even bring up the driving range.

Course condition better
Condition of the course is better than when played a few months ago; however, there are still a few fairways that need improvement. Overall, the course is in much better shape now.
Don't play here.
Don't play here. Very poorly maintained. No grass on fairways.

What was great is now barely MEDIOCRE
Montebello Golf Course was previously a coveted golf destination. Now,…sadly…its a waste of money and time.
