Newport Beach Golf Course

No control of tee times or starter block. It seems they just pack the course with as many players as possible. I did a hot deal for 18 holes on a Sunday at 4pm and didn’t want to play the back nine because it was talking so long to finish the front nine. Won’t use this app to book a times here again.

I’m from Utah and even our worse course is 10 times better than this course...never again!

You are playing off mats for many holes (stick to back 9 if you want to tee off from grass more).

It’s a fun little course that you can play 9 holes in under an hour thirty on weekdays.

Greens are very well maintained but fairways are pretty average.

Overall a fun little course if you set your expectations right. Great place to take a beginner to.

First thing I get there and there's no putting. There redoing the entire putting greens.. no notice.. then second get to the window to check in for my Teetime that I planned week in advance. The worker tells me there no back 9 there's only the front 9 holes. But you can lope back around and do it again. I had friends coming from as far as 30 miles away to only play a 9 hole course. Then on top of that the place raised there pricing. Could not believe how bad the place is getting. Absolutely terrible experience. I don't think there going to be around much longer. I least for me and the amount of friends that I know, we won't be coming back to often. Get your act together.

Do not play here if you want to have fun because you will wait 20 minutes max on tee boxes to hit. People are hitting left and right and can’t hit the fairway. It’s embarrassing and just not a course to recommend to anyone.

The course it’s self is full of dirt holes and you won’t be able to get a good hit from the fairway unless you move the ball on some grass. Once I got to hole 4 I had to wait 20 minutes just for people to tee off. The wait is ridiculous, people that okay here don’t know how to play. They slice or push the ball far left or right and instead of playing another ball you have to wait for them to look for there ball. Not a good course for those who can hit.

this course was horrible to play, I would not recommend anyone to play here. My tee time was 730am and no available carts. The put too much money into the Range.....the golfing range looked better than the whole entire course. the putting greens were fairly descent though , I must admit. You would think this course would be nice cause its in Newport beach area....nope, you would think you are in Compton, Ca. they these fairways looked...Oh by the way, the hitting matts for each hole was terrible. I seen 4 gwagons and several other Hi-end cars, Come on Newport beach, step your game up. I would be willing to invest, but this course would need to shut down for at least a year for renovation purposes. At this point you can charge 50-60$ per game with carts available. sorry newport beach golf course, you get a 1 star from me. the Pizza was fire....yum yum

The best for the buck. Challenging enough for any person.

For now you’re still teeing off mats. By the looks of it you’ll be able to tee off grass soon! Fairways are looking better as well.

I’ll start this off by saying the coarse is great to learn to play. Most tee shots from the mats, it’s a bit of a mad house with lots of people. But all in all we had a great time. Pace of play was slow as this is pretty heavy with amateurs like my self. Greens were really fast but in great shape. The fairways were a bit lackluster as it was more chunky grass and dirt. But the staff was kind and great especially since they were dealing with an issue that happened the night before that was in avoidable. If your learning, want a cheap fun round, this spot is fun just know your not walking into a 5 star coarse.

This place was terrible. I normally don't bash golf courses, restaurants, etc. in reviews but I have to say something.

I played here yesterday with one of my friends, we showed up 10 minutes before out tee time. It took forever to check in for our round and the staff was not very friendly. They couldn't locate my tee time because I made the reservation online so that slowed us up. Once we finally checked in and got to the first tee, there was a line of people waiting to tee off. There were probably 5 separate groups waiting to play. We decided to wait our turn in line even though our tee time was 11:50am and we showed up on time. After waiting for about 10 minutes, someone who worked at the course walked over and asked everyone in line to join into larger groups. They forced us to play in groups of 5 - 7 people with people we did not know because they were "really backed up." They didn't even apologize for the wait or inconvenience. Once we finally got our turn to tee off, maybe 25 minutes after our tee time was supposed to start, all the groups in front of us split up and no longer played in the 5 - 7 person group format. At one point, the "Marshall" who was just a kid wearing sweatpants and had headphones on, drove by us in a golf cart and didn't acknowledge us when we tried to talk to him. He drove past us and down the course. While he was driving he went past 3 groups of people who were not playing in their 5 - 7 person format and slowing down the pace of play and the "marshal" didn't say anything to them. The course is roughly 3000 yards and it took us 3 hours just to complete the first 9 holes. The condition of the course was sub-par and we were not playing off of real tee boxes with grass, everything was off of driving range matts until you got to the fairway or the green.

Once we finished the first 9 holes, my friend and I decided just to leave and not continue playing because it would take too long and we weren't having a good time having to wait 10 - 15 minutes to start each hole. It's a shame because we paid to play the full 18 holes and couldn't stand to be there any longer.

Overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone. Even the driving range looked too busy and people had to wait their turn. I would recommend saving your money and going somewhere that maintains the course better and can manage tee times and groups of people. Unfortunately it was just a terrible experience overall and I will never return.

You are hitting off of matt a majority of the time. The greens are way nicer than I was expecting, the best part of the course are the greens no question. Would be a great course to sharpen your short game, yet the pace of play is rough, and flagsticks get left on the ground. I believe they have night golf, looking forward to giving that a go.

Greens were actually in pretty good condition. Fun course now that they have t boxes and you don’t have to just hit from the mats. We had two juniors ahead of us which was painful and did see a party of 8, yea 8 playing a few holes ahead of us which held things up a bit…..

I really like this place. Very enjoyable. Today was a beautiful day. Like this place so much I put in a application .
