Monterey Park Golf Course

It’s a great 9 hole course, but I had to abandon my game on the 4th hole today because there were about 100 kids and instructors on the course, about 10 per hole, moving like molasses. I was not told of the kids event, and after I had paid and got to the second hole did I realize I could not play through at all. If I had been given a heads up at the window I would have stuck to the range. Waste of time and money.

This is a very nice course. I'll definitely be playing here again.

I am a beginner, and I found this course to be of moderate difficulty. I was able to make par on a few holes, and I mainly used this experience as good practice. There were more experienced players at the earlier tee times who were taking their time hitting multiple balls to practice, which caused some delays. Some players took longer than ten minutes as they focused on perfecting their form. On average, you can expect to finish each hole in about 6 to 8 minutes, even at a relaxed pace.

If you paid for 2pm, tee off with 2pm people. In my case 3pm tee off turned into 3:25 tee time cause people werent teeing off with their time slot. So bad. Course is great but we need a marshall there or something.

I understand this is a municipal golf course and there are people learning that's not a problem, everyone starts somewhere but jeez. I played solo today 5/31/2025 and asked if I was playing with anybody because usually as a solo I get paired with randoms to speed up play which makes sense and I don't mind.

I went off by myself and had three people in front of me and caught up by the third hole, they let me play through which was cool. I played a few holes with nobody really in front of me then got to the sixth hole where i saw 9. YES 9 PEOPLE in a group. I hit my shot and it's just right of the green and don't really think anything of it. because I'm just out here playing 9 for fun. Until one of the people hooks it LOW right off their tee at seven and hits me with their golf ball in the back of the right thigh. The guy who hits comes over and apologizes which is fine, but no FORE, nobody in that group NINE PEOPLE said anything like a "Aggggh or WATCH OUT" nothing.

I've been hit with a ball before which happens in golf, but I was MAD because not only am I getting hit there's NINE people playing on the course.

I call the front desk and tell them that NINE people are playing together which the desk responds "Oh yeah they probably joined groups" ANNNNNND THAT'S OKAY!? Screw it, why don't I find 25 people and we go off together, that's chill by this place's logic right?. The front desk said he'll come over and tell them (like that's gonna do anything)

This course is cool, it's a fun par of 3 course with 2 par of 4's the course isn't the problem, the PEOPLE are the problem, yeah I probably got a bad group of douche's in front of me, but for the people in charge to say "yeah they probably combine groups" is INSANE. I've played a fivesome before because of tight groups but NINE PEOPLE IS INEXCUSABLE.

Once the dirt out the tee boxes it would be a perfect 9 hole. Way too many carpets and they aren’t maintenances. Tees box conditions are 2/10

The substantial hills makes this course challenging.
