Pacific Palms Resort

Course was in good shape.

Greens were excellent

Course is solid value $74 for a resort style course.

Bunkers went from a 1/5 to a 2/5. They’re working on them but they are still crap

Pace of play for a Thursday was 5 hours. Aweful.

Played early (7:30) and had no problem finishing 4 hours. Always enjoy this course.

Let me start by saying I completely understand and was fine with the greens being aerated, my rating has nothing to do with that. I understood the greens would be aerated before I played, so this review was not influenced by that.

I was really surprised at how bad of shape the course was in. The fairways were a mess with the grass being cut wrong or unevenly causing some of the grass to die in the direction that the mower drove. Really inconsistent. There were random mounds of dirt in the fairways on multiple holes, almost looked like gophers. There were rocks mixed in with the sand in multiple bunkers. The grass around the greens was overgrown and not maintained. This was my first time playing this course and just was really disappointed, especially for the price. I just don’t understand what the heck they’re doing with the fairways with part being dead, part being mowed too short and burned, and part looking under watered (though other parts were literally flooded).

Another disappointing aspect was the cart attendant. Extremely overpriced. They charge roughly $8 each for Michelob Ultras, which is insane. Ordered 4 and it was over $30 before tip. I don’t know a single local course other than this one that charges more than $6 each. If I would have known ahead of time I would have passed on the beers.

For how nice the pro-shop and bar was, the course does not match at all, at least not in its current condition. All staff was super friendly and helpful and pace of play was good, but I really can’t recommend this course right now for this price under its current condition. The layout of the course is fun and challenging, no issues there at all, just terrible conditions. Not worth $65+ when there are a lot of other local courses that charge less and are in better shape.

I’ll start from the beginning. Got there checked in was told to come back 10 minutes before to get cart. Why? The range is a long walk away from the pro shop. Just give me a cart! Decided to get some coffee from the little shop outside. $19 for a small burrito and small coffee. Wow! Way to expensive. Pace of play was ok. We played in 4 hours and 20 minutes. We were a foursome and let a twosome play through. They allowed a single to join them on number 11. Huh? Why now? We caught them and it Slowed us down considerably.

Course conditions - Tee boxes are 1 star. Fairways are in 3.5 star condition. Rough is high and overgrown. 75% of the greens are horrible. Lots of divot marks. They are aerating soon so they probably don’t care. For $74 there are better out there. All in all was disappointed this course used to be in the upper echelons of courses now it’s just meh.

Had a great time! The only thing missing was that rare flying species of the Aves class!

They were try to charge extra $30 for single player.

We booked for 3 players and my friend got upset and just left without playing.

They put single player to joining us and he didn't pay any extra cart fee.

Staff was so rude and they were laughed at us.

We won't go back this place ever.

Booked for 3 players on Saturday and when we checking in they required to my friend to share the cart with some single player that joining with us other wise they were going to charge him for extra $30 (yes $30 )

While later

Pro shop guy called

Manager and he came over said that just wear mask all day if you don't want to pay or worry about covid and laughed at us.

My friend got upset and just left and after that single player came in for checking in and they didn't ask him for anything.

So basically we were planning to have a good time with my friend and me and my wife had to play with some random guy instead of my friend.

Now I want to ask them why did you make my friend to pay him extra $30 and didn't ask anything to other person ?

What if that single player refuse to share the cart after my friend paid extra $30?

What if anyone of them got covid and spread to others.

Yes We can play together but I don't think anyone wants to share the cart with someone you don't know and don't want to hear that you have to pay extra $30 when you check in too.

Industry hills golf management team ruin our weekend and I want find out any regulation for social distancing from any source .

I have played here a few times in the past and usually it's in pristine conditions. But this time I played, I noticed course needs some maintenance. Lot of divots & barren ground in the fairway. Some greens look dilapidated with barren ground exposed. Hate those bunkers with wet hard sand when played in the mornings.

I was a single paired up with a threesome. I wasn’t given my own cart. Although I paid for my round with the cart included. Thought that was odd given I was pairing up with a threesome. Plus if pace of play is important I would think it’d be wise to give as many carts as possible to ensure ready golf. So that was annoying. Plus the guy I rode with seemed annoyed with me having to ride with him which i completely understood. I would be bothered about having to ride with a random for 18 holes. Course Marshall have us a warning on the 5/6 hole and I was bothered because I was playing ready golf and moving along just fine. Playing one ball. However the other three hit multiple balls and spent too much time looking for their balls out of play. Had I had my own cart I would’ve been able to play ahead and the Marshall would’ve seen that I wasn’t at fault for backing up play We picked up pace on the back 9 and never heard from the Marshall again although he was hawking us. Don’t blame him much we had a bad hole on the front 9 and were 15 min+ behind pace of play. Just had an annoying experience which could’ve been avoided.

Great condition had a good round but it’s a little long for me from the blue tees. My playing partner was not a long ball hitter and was frequently 20 yards shorter than me. Don’t know why most golfers in LA think they need to hit from the tips. On a good day I drive it about 240-250. The white tees are more enjoyable for me. If you can’t reach the green in regulation on almost every hole, move up! Just a little rant

Overall a forgiving course. Only a few penalty areas you can find yourself in. Fairways are nice, rough isn’t patchy, and overall the greens were in great shape! Industry hills also offers the Babe course which is a lot more narrow but short from tee to green. Very scenic course.
