I played two days in a row at 11:30 am (Thursday and Friday) and the course was empty and in fantastic shape. Finished both rounds under 3 hours, the ice and cooler on the cart kept me cool, and the value for the money was off the charts: What more could you ask for?

Course was in decent shape, the greens were good, and pace was excellent. There were some very interesting holes, especially on the back 9, and it’s obvious that ownership is working to improve conditions. I will definitely be back

This was a really cool, strictly desert/target-golf layout in fantastic condition! It was still cart path only, but the overseer is growing in nicely and the greens were a very dark green and rolling great. POP was barely over 4 hours, little/no waiting. Free range balls, excellent short game area, very friendly staff. All in all, this was a wonderful experience and I would recommend this course to any serious golfer

As much as I love El Dorado, I have to say that Big Rec has it beat. You can feel the special authenticity that only old courses have when you step on the first tee and traverse your way all the way across the stately old school layout. It’s a busy course but we got around in just over 4 hours, which was a pleasant surprise. Course conditions were great but a little soggy from all the rain, with the greens being way faster than I was expecting (kudos to the maintenance crew and greenskeeper!). I highly recommend this beautiful, historic and very playable course to anyone

This course has a very consistent theme: Rows and groves of mature palm trees, generous fairways, strategically placed bunkers and pure greens. Conditions were absolutely immaculate, POP was fantastic, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. I can see why this course is consistently voted #1 in the valley, it certainly became one of my favorites instantly!

First, the service here is outstanding: People were friendly, courteous, and seemed to enjoy their jobs. Second, the course is IMMACULATE: Absolutely mint. POP was a shade over 4 hours, mostly because this course is a beast; there was no one in front or behind our group all round. This was a huge splurge for me, but definitely worth it: Ocean views on all 18 holes was as majestic as I’d imagined and the memories will last a lifetime. Being a native of nearby Long Beach, I’m glad I saved up for a day of Pete Dye punishment on the Pacific at least once!

I hadn’t played Meadowlark in several years and to my eyes, the conditions were even better than they used to be. Fairways and greens were great, the rough was heavy, and tee boxes were lush. All of this was overshadowed, unfortunately, by a 4 hour 45 minute round (10:15 tee time). In my opinion, a par 70, sub 6,000 yard course should NEVER be a 4 hour round, let alone near 5: This problem NEEDS to be fixed

I really enjoyed this course, it was a nice change of pace from the overpriced tracks in Palm Springs. It was very well maintained, extremely playable, and the views were wonderful. I played it in the afternoon and again the following morning and it was a little windy both rounds; nothing crazy, just enough to make things interesting. Every member of the staff was extraordinarily friendly and informative. It is a 12 hole course but they allow you to play either one of the 6 hole loops if you want to make it a full 18, which I thought was really cool. All in all, I would highly recommend checking this place out, especially if you’re a mid-high handicapper like myself

First time playing the Resort Course and I liked it so much I came back the next day! Conditions were fantastic, course was empty and the staff was awesome: What more can you ask for? Traditionally, La Quinta and PGA West are my favorite spots in the valley, but more and more I find myself going to Tahquitz because it’s challenging and well maintained but also very playable and always super fun

I really enjoyed this course; it had all the cartoonish elements of the Stadium Course while being much more fun to play. Fairways and greens were in exceptional shape, especially for late summer, rough varied from deep and penal to crispy and hot. It was around 110 degrees when I played and the marshal checked on me twice to make sure the heat wasn’t getting to me, which I really appreciated; when the course is empty it doesn’t make sense for them to run a drink cart and I like how they were sensitive to that. All around, an absolute A+ experience all around!

Course is in wonderful shape, the lady in the pro shop was awesome, and I really enjoyed my round. We were however paired with an older couple who weren’t great at golf and also played slowly; the marshal seemed to think that was a good reason to come over and scold my friend and me. Even after we explained that we weren’t the culprits he continued to lecture us about ready golf; it left a sour taste in my mouth

This course really needs a marshal; every time I play here peope are jumping on randomly and no one ever lets faster groups play through. Other than that, I really enjoy this course!

It’s an LA muni: Don’t be too shocked that there’s a bare spot here and there. A lot of reviews of this place are unnecessarily harsh, I found it to be in fair condition. POP was good on the front, bad on the back, still just over 4 hours. Greens were in good shape, staff was friendly and the price was right, I’ll be back for sure

I usually play Cimarron at least once when I visit, it’s always in excellent condition and features some of the best views in the valley. There was a temporary green and temporary par 3 that caught me off guard, but they’re clearly improving the course so no bigs

Bixby has been a staple for Long Beach area golfers since before I was born. It’s a fun layout with some unique quirks that make it very interesting and demand your attention. I enjoy playing here because it’s a great place to practice different shots, it’s stress-free but still challenging, POP is usually fast, and it’s an excellent value. It’s not as manicured as little rec or the Navy course, but Bixby is always a good time and worth the greens fee

Baker is always a fun, stress-free round: What more can you say? Excellent value, friendly staff, good times!

Eldo is my favorite course in Long Beach and I always have a good time when I play there. I just wish It was a bit cheaper but that’s basically universal in golf!

I try to play here every time I visit PS. Watch for coyotes and please fix your divots!!!

I love both courses at La Quinta, the complimentary range balls, and the super friendly staff. The Dunes is a typical Pete Dye residential layout, which is still way cooler than 99% of other courses out there. Lots of undulations, raised greens and fairways, and of course, water and railroad ties everywhere!
