Need to change tees boxes and add carts

TEE BOXES SUCK!! The greens and fairways are in great shape. However this course has made one drastic mistake. They force you to tee off of the fake turf grass instead of a real tee box. Easy change they could make. Eventually should bring back golf carts too would speed up pace of play old people get tired and start walking slower and slow the game down very much for everyone else.

This course is challenging.

I rarely score a par on any nine holes on this golf course, but I keep coming here to golf again. Fun course for golfing.

Great hangout short course

The course itself is short, but holes #1 and #9 are nearly 300 yds. The rest are par 3s that are each unique with some challenges. I played at night and have to admit that the lighting is better than what I anticipated. If you have light up balls, they are seen much better than the regular balls, but switch them on the green.

Hidden gem

Monterey park is the perfect place to hit balls after work or play a quick 9. They have good food and plenty of beers to choose from! I highly recommend this course.

Great lil 9 hole course!

This is one of the better 9 holes for me. Each hole never seems like another. Other courses seem like you're playing the same hole over and over again.
