Located just south of the airport, Van Nuys Golf Course has a unique location that provides an air show with anything from WWII Warbirds to F16 Falcons. It can be loud occasionally, but it's also one of the most affordable rounds in the area. There are two golf courses available, an 18-hole par-3 course and a nine-hole executive course. Neither of the courses are terribly formidable, but it's a great spot for getting in some practice. It's ideal for beginners but golf enthusiasts of any skill level will appreciate that the facility stays open late and both golf courses and the driving range are equipped with lights. The Van Nuys par-3 course offers good short game practice. There are a few bunkers and some strategically placed palm trees, but it's a very user-friendly golf course overall. It's even gentle enough for juniors.

Overall a great course which har both par 3's and par 4's ;-)

This is a great course close to my neighborhood and I'm very happy about it :-) The 18 hole par 3 and the 9 par 3and 4's executive is great in both ways and I play them both. The executive make use of the driver, which is valuable if you want to go to the longer courses and stay ON your game!

I have been playing here for a few years and the greens are almost always great and in good shape!

Don't miss out of this jewel ;-)

Great course for keeping your game on

They have a 18 hole 3par course which is great to keep your short game at a peak. Holes from 95 to 140 yards.

The 9 hole executive course is great because its an opportunity to also work on your driving shots. 6 of the holes is from 100 to 145 years and the 3 others is from 270 to 330 yards.

You want be disappointed!

Can't beat it for the price

I have probably played 30 rounds at either the pitch and putt or the executive course here and they are great practice courses. There is enough interest on the executive course to keep you paying attention. I've played there with beginners, but I have played for 40 years and still enjoy a fun round at this course.
