Solid course for price

Course is fine but the only issue is they do groups of five which slows down pace of play

The greens were being air raided with sand so they had flags planted shorter in fairway. If I was notified earlier I would have played elsewhere. Lot of players left the course

Worth it

I find Penmar to be a very safe bet , when it comes to an easily enough course for beginners. Yet challenging enough for the more seasoned golfer.

Penmar - a gem of course

I visit my sister frequently in Mar Vista every year and always wanted to play PenMar. Played solo on early Tuesday morning. The course allows 5 to a group, but we were the third group out and we finished in 2hours and 15 minutes. The course was in great shape including the greens. Due to heavy winds there were a few trees down, but we all managed to circumvent this is minor problem. I will be back in March, so I hope I can play again!

LA Residents Deserve Better

Good Bar, Food & Atmosphere...BUT Greens are not well maintened, no tee box maintenance, practice range and short game area is a joke, no soap and sometimes no water in the ball washers...it's like the manager doesn't care. They keep the place running and playable to the minimumstandards. It's Cheap to play and I see why. I'd pay more if they could deliver value.

Great Price

This course is fun and convenient. The price is super reasonable. Just be careful with those pesky squirrels. They are aggressive. My foodless golf bag is proof.

Great course!

I'm still a beginner but I've played this course twice now and it's one of my favorites. 9 holes with a few par 4's. Usually play in about 2 1/2 hours so it's a good pace.
