The hills are nice; some trees on the course as well

This is a 9-hole course with the first and last holes par 4; the rest are par 3. It would rate another half or whole star if it didn't have those maddening astroturf tees. It's somewhat scenic (although it's not far from a freeway). It's also quite hilly, which creates a little more physical workout for an old guy like me, but makes the golfing more interesting. Another slight negative is that the greens are inconsistent - some have lots of roll, some not so much.

Bang for buck. Great range.

Solid pitch and putt. Two driveable or 4’s. Cool people. Laid back feel. Nobody fixes their divots or picks up their trash so I do what I can to help out. Beginners beware- Thick bushes to lose more balls than Lance Armstrong, so bring the throwaways. Overall it’s the coolest p&p in the area and the best driving range too.

talk about turning a course in to a dumpster fire

Poor course management and even worse pace of play. I honestly do not think I will ever play here again. No reason it should take nearly 3 hours to walk a par 3 style 9 hole course.

Fun and challenging par 3

The first and 9th hole are par 4's and they are fun to play. The holes between are also enjoyable. The hills create a challenge and if your not wearing proper shoes, you might slip. Overall I enjoy playing this nice, clean and inexpensive course. I will be coming back again and again.
