Major problem

course had no intention of doing physical distance as they kept people out as soon as tee box was open resulting 2 groups hanging out every tee, it took just over 5 hours to play.

When you enter the property, you can see a par 3 tee to your left, when i was driving in I can see 3 groups on the tee box. When I checked in I mentioned to the starter about 3 groups on the tee at par 3, he replied the course is full and packed, I said I don't think city would want to see that and he replied, city will be happy to see the course packed, it's not own by the city, how stupid was that?

Hello, Kimm. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the back of golfers on the course during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With so many golfers looking to get out, we are working very hard to maintain social distancing while accommodating everyone who visits our course. We are doing everything we can to allow our guests the chance to complete their rounds and finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve, and thank you for playing Montebello Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Exceptionally slow and OK conditions

They are not spacing out times so groups are very backed up. Cut it short after 5 hours (riding) and still did not finish.

Hello, thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With an uncharacteristically full day, we work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and allow our guest the chance to complete their rounds. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. We are glad to see you rated the course conditions and layout to be great during your game. Thank you for playing Montebello Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.

A Good Price for The Outing

We walked the course. Not hilly at all, mostly flat. The course was in decent course although there was a lot of mowing debris throughout, which attracted mosquitos because of damp mounds left in the shade. Their staff was friendly and took every precaution that was in accordance with LA County requirements.

I could not play and I could not contact golfnow.com customer service for the refund..

I do not know what is going on with golfnow.com customer service.

I prepaid $100 for 2 player and $50/person was the cart-included rate on my confirmation sheet.

But I got to the golf course, carts were not allowed at all.

I could not play without carts and I cancelled my reservation on the course.

For my money back, I tried to reach out golfnow.com customer service, but I could not do it,

Answering machine on the phone repeatedly has been saying "there is technically problem, please call another time' I called yesterday and today.......

Further to this, I cannot find an email address for customer service.

How can I have my money back ??

6 hours is outrageous!!!

Yes, it took exactly 6 hours to complete 18 holes. Our group had to wait at least 5~10 minutes on every shot. I would never go back unless it's free.

Great Course

Yesterday was first time playing, really enjoyed the course, the fairways were the best i have played locally for such a big course. There was slow play, but it was worth it. If you like open, long, fairly straight courses, this is the spot.
