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.

Great local course!

I like playing on the executive 9 hole for using my driver. It has 3 par 4’s so that makes me get my driving inn too!

The 3par 18 hole is great too, but short distances, but can improve your irons! Good Luck !

Great greens and for training on your short game

I go here as often as I can. The staff is great and friendly. The condition of the greens is very good and the course is fairly easy, but still challenging enough for a medium level player.

Great to walk and fun to play :-)
