Great Conditions

The course is everything and all that!! Very nice from the tee boxes to the Greens. The layout is challenging on some holes but yet, still forgiving on others. The greens were super fast and thin which added to the level difficulty. The weather was perfect!! It was a good day.

Tight older course, great shape but gets a lot of play

Great for those learning to play because pace of play is really slow, not sure if that’s cause and effect! Tight old style layout, carved into a neighborhood where you cross several streets, in good shape, decent value for money, you do get what you pay for. Disappointed no water on the course that we could find on a 95-195F day in August.

Old Style Small Course in Good Condition

Very tight fairways, small greens, old style, in decent to good condition for the time of the season (late August). Space is a premium so only warm up nets with mats that were in better shape than Monarch Beach Golf Links and 4x the price! If you spray the ball you will have a hard time here or brake some windows. I wouldn’t go back. Price is fair for what you get. It’s a good place for kids to learn the sport provided they have some knowledge of the game. Parking is easy, pro shop has the basics.

Love the course and the history

New owner spent a lot of money on infrastructure and it shows. Condition of the course is another matter. The greens were pretty rough

Interesting layout

Narrow fairways with lots of palm and other trees to negotiate around. Great views of mountains and nostalgic mid-century modern houses line the course.

Laid back friendly staff. Don’t let the yardage fool you. Inaccurate shots can put you in trouble.

Fun to play.

Great fun!!!

It’s short but still challenging for the short game. Lots of 3 and 5 wood shots. Very enjoyable and super cool retro theme throughout. Staff was amazing… great bartender at Gino’s and the golf host was super friendly. Play this course if you haven’t yet.
