Excellent

Good, fun course with big, 2 tiered greens in good shape. Ending with an island green par 3 into the wind was a first.

Wet but fine

Huge, tricky greens the main feature of this one. Not too tough from the white tees but you can have some very long, tough putts on almost every hole

Great course, no amenities

Course is in great shape, fast pace of play, pins put in tough spots, very enjoyable round. However, only a trailer with minimal food and drink….. not a sandwich to be had anywhere. Seems ridiculous for such a nice, popular course. Beware and come prepared.

Disappointing

Greens were sandy. Bunkers were a joke and after they gave our carts to another group we were sent out a hole late and then five holes later told we were behind and needed to play more quickly And that message kept coming on our carts for the next hour.

The whole day was a joke. Sorry to say but cmon guys you have to do much much better than that

Solid

Long course in decent shape, fairways just ok, the greens were nice - fast as always and roll true. pace of play was excellent. Still a very, very nice public course in LA, one of the best.....some looong par 4's though so be warned. Only drawback was an overpriced grilled sausage - nowhere near worth the $10.......playing partner said the same after first bite of his too....

Solid course

Pace was a little slow, people working the course fairly clueless, range balls a joke BUT the course was in nice shape and definitely offered a solid challenge to all levels. Tee boxes and fairways were lush, greens were smooth but surprisingly slow. Some nice views of local mountains too......fun day all around.

Lousy bunkers ruined round

Excited to play this course but the bunkers, which are everywhere, were brutal. Not enough sand and couldn't blast out......would have been nice to know prior to the round and even better if they added sand so they played like actual greenside bunkers....paying $100 for this felt like a ripoff

Fun layout using Jack's favorite holes but combo of very cold weather and those bunkers, plus a lot of greens that weren't in great shape made for a tough round.

Big rec

Greens didn't hold approaches too well but we're fine otherwise. Tee boxes and fairways just ok
Fun course, quite a few short par fours to try and birdie

Playing solo

Playing by yourself is fun and I enjoyed doing that on the Mountain course. Lots of driving between holes was annoying, but tees, fairways and bunkers were in great shape - greens were aerated a week earlier and sadly, were still sandy and very slow which really took away from the day......also, it was hot out there and while they have water on every other hole, there's no ice except at the turn so beware.

Very nice course and will go back when it's cooler

Special place

Serene surroundings, some of the prettiest and most challenging holes you can imagine and very, very fast greens that roll true. Careful if you are above the hole...

Solid course, greens in great shape, tough finishing hole

The East course is in decent shape, especially the greens, which were really well maintained, though not super fast. Decent course, on the short side but tight most of the way around, with the exception of a few wide open doglegs........18 is a beast up a big hill and into the wind - tough way to finish....the par 3's from the blues are challenging - fairly long and into narrow greens - helps to know where the flags are as some of the greens are long, meaning a 2 club difference........starter gave me a hard time about being alone in a golf cart saying that golf now meant I should have been sharing, but there was nobody to share with - kind of a weird vibe to start the round - felt unnecessary to bring that up considering the situation.....

Ok course but for this area, the conditions were sub-par

Decent course but compared to others in the area, the conditions are below average. Plenty of doglegs make it a little tough on first-timers.......some pretty easy par 4's and par 3's with one extremely difficult hole, #10 which borders on unfair as it is almost impossible to hold the severely sloping fairway. In a very sunny area, which for this area is a little unusual.
