Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course

Beautiful location, great course, some very challenging holes with very helpful staff on the course, pro shop and in the bar.

Probably my favorite public course in the area.

I always enjoy playing at Lake Arrowhead. But Unfortunately the course conditions haven’t been up to snuff in recent years. The sand traps are in horrible condition, the aeration of the greens is very poor compared to other courses. Slow play is not monitored like it should be. The rates are over priced for the course conditions. I still plan on playing there periodically but I hope it turns around for the better like it used to be.

Best value around!! Great staff, fun people. Good times all around.

I’ve played this course a couple times. Lots of terrain so you have to enjoy a hilly course. Wonderful views. The staff was mostly great but the Marshall had a little too much caffeine that morning. Stopped on the turn and was told to hurry up or be left behind. Dude, it’s the turn. People stop for things. Otherwise the crew was great. Some of the tee boxes were closer to sand bunkers. Fixing those tee boxes will go a long way to improve the course. Still. It’s a great course and I’d recommend it.

I like the course. I wished they had said the greens had been aerated last week.

I wish they had posted that they punched the greens last week.

I know they have to do this but not knowing this ahead of time would have been helpful.

I would suggest waiting til June when the greens recover.

Hard track but fun.

This course is beautiful, the location is beautiful, the layout is wonderful, the staff is super nice. But it never seems to be in a condition that you expect. Fairways were hard and lacking grass, while other similar courses already have nice lush fairways. This has been the case all three times that I have played the course in the last two years.

Greens were being aerated so can’t comment about their conditions.

If they can get fairways to be similar to a nice resort course then this place would be 5 star.

In 18 holes I hit the driver 4 holes. Teeing off on LONG par 4s and 5s with 6 irons and 5 irons to avoid hitting in the abyss is not fun at all. The course has great fairways, AMAAZING greens, but the layout is AWFUL. It’s not fun.

This is one of the better condition courses I play. Even with the rain it was still decent. Only gripe is l how dang tough the course is. Two feet farther to the left than normal on your drive?? Down into the woods it goes!! Putt just a tad harder than you should have? Into the creek with your ball!!

This is a mountain course and it comes with all the challenges that environment brings. From course maintenance and the player. Most holes have at lest one blind shot, discounting the par 3's. The beauty surrounding the course makes it pretty. Overall - the course is not fair.

Greens were fast. Pace of play 4.2 hrs.. Some tee boxes need new grass. A good layout.

The course has tough uphill approach shots with limited overall views of the pin placement . Also ,

I would like to see the fairways softer so that ball roll out would not either penalize you or make the holes shorter than designed .

Overall a good challenge and fun course to play !

Played this code for the first time and it was great. Arrived early and had breakfast before. Food was amazing. Staff was great and plate was hefty. Driving range was decent. Kinda expected for this time of year. Choose shape was good. Not green grass weather but want alot of dirt areas. Greens were in good shape. Place of play was great until we came up on a husband and wife duo. Wasn’t extremely slow but it was two of them and four of us. All in all, great layout, tough and challenging course.

The course should be really good in a couple of weeks when the fairways fill in completely. Thin lies presented major challenges. The greens rolled well but didn't hold shots well, as the dryness caused huge landing bounces. Beautiful scenery on every hole made it worth the trip, though.
