5 Stars
This was one of the better courses i’ve been to in a while. Only down side was that it’s all Par 3’s, but it was still very eventful and unique! Definitely recommend for the price and quality of golf they provide.
Payed full with only 8 holes
Number 8 hole wasn’t in play and we were never told that. Payed for a nine hole course and only got to play 8 holes. Very disappointed.
Nice but course UNDER REPAIR
The staff were super friendly and the course looked like would be nice if the conditions weren’t undergoing repair. The winter rains really did a number and there are several holes that are being completely reseeded. The 8th hole is also closed as half the green was washed out.
8th Hole Closed
Did not know that until we reached the 7th tee and saw the 8th was "taped" off. At first I thought there was an alternate green, but no. We were not told the 8th was closed. It would not have caused us to leave, but at least maybe a discount or a free hot dog? The 8th is the most challenging hole. Heck it may have saved me a few bucks in golf balls in the lake. Other than that, it's worth giving this course a play, as there are longer par 3 holes than the nearby Top Golf The Lakes.
Recent Flood has damaged course
Golf course is nestled behind the Westdrift hotel. In normal conditions it’s a nice course. However, the recent rainstorms in SoCal has caused flooding on holes 6 and 8. Course is in remediation to repair flood damage but open for business. I still recommend the course for those in the Manhattan Beach area or visiting the hotel.
This course has horrible T boxes
Took almost 2 hours to finish 9 holes. Group in front was giving lessons while playing. Tee boxes were all dirt. The parking is in the hotel now. Course has gone to 💩
Fun course with plenty of challenges
Staff is excellent, course is in great shape minus the tee boxes. Great quick round requiring precision shots that will satisfy the golf bug in you. It’s a bit expensive for a par 3, but hey I’m fine with it being a little less crowded.
Good 9 Hole Course
Course is great for an executive 9-hole. Interesting terrain, nice greens, good pace. Not much on the course apart from the golf but won’t hear complaints from me. Plenty to do in the hotel/surrounding area after the round.
Horrible Tee Boxes!
Historically, this has been a great 9 hole course with pristine greens for short game management. About $10 overpriced but the condition of the course justified it.
Fast forward to the present and the greens are still in great condition. HOWEVER, the TEE Box areas are HORRIBLE. Bare, patchy grass, you name it. Think you'll just hit off the mats since it's a par 3? The mats are threadbare and you might as well hit some practice shots on the concrete in the parking lot for softness.
C'mon Westdrift, do better ASAP.
Great vibe
I enjoy the vibe of this course on a nice Sunny day of golfing.
The pond lake and green hilly grass field makes it interesting. Grass are thicker but manageable.
Great 90 mins for short game practice
This is a great little par 3 for practicing your short game
Smooth Course and Friendly People.
My husband played awfully. Generally, it was a fine course. We let some students passing by. They practiced soccer after school. Other people were fine.
We arrived from China on September 5. They needed to put some signs to indicate the direction to teeoff check in office. The grass needed to be trimmed. The weather was fine
