Typical William P. Bell course. Very traditional much like Brookside in Pasadena. Wide fairways and multi tier greens. Fairways are tree lined, but you can still work your way through them. Some of the greens are well bunkered and some very tight pin positions make getting close to the flag a challenge. Course was built back in the 1940's so very mature trees where some of them come into play on your approach shots to the greens so positioning is important. Easy course to walk and enjoyable. This was a private course, but was sold about 2 months ago and turned public.

Found a deal on Groupgolfer for $39 so it was worth the drive. Friendly staff and very helpful. Practice area is large with plenty or putting greens and chipping areas to work on your game. The course was in fantastic shape and the weather was perfect. Fairways are just like carpet and the ball sets up perfect. There are a couple of par 4's that are reachable for the long straight hitter. A few hole don't require a driver, but a well placed tee shot with a hybrid or a long iron to set yourself up for a good approach to the green. Bunkers are well maintained and plenty of sand to hit out of. The greens are smooth and roll medium to fast with plenty of undulations and multi tiers. Greens are well bunkered and are very large. Not rare to find yourself with a putt of 80' or longer. I recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a fun and fair layout.

I was invited to play by GKJohnny and I have to say that I was impressed with the course. My first time playing it and it is a nice little challenge. Between the elevation change and the wind it made you work for every shot. The greens have to be the largest I have ever played on and with multiple tiers. Hit the wrong side of the greens and you can find yourself with a 75 foot putt or longer. The fairways were not to bad, but are starting to turn brown. The signature hole is the 18th hole. From the Blue tees it plays 191 yards to an island green and most of the time in to the wind. On this hole the only thing in your favor is a very large green. Even though I played my worst round in a few years I really like this course.

Thanks again to GKJohnny and everyone else that was there. I look forward to the next outing with all of you.

I was surprised how dead the course was. We played as a twosome and the nearest group bhind us was almost 3 holes back. In fact it was so dead out there that we were just taking practice shot after practice shot. The course is in fair shape. The fairways are just starting to brown in spots all due to the drought, but still in decent shape. The greens are really in good shape. They hold just about any shot in to them and they roll smooth. Not as fast as you would think they are, but the ball rolls with no bumping around. The course is not long and all the par 5's are reachable in 2.

Nice course, but I don't think it is worth $90 to play. The course is in excellent condition concidering we are in a drought. This is a course where you can leave the driver in the bag. Fairway woods or hybrids are a wise choice to tee off with since you will face blind shots and narrow fairways. The bunkers are not great and are very hard with little sand on top. The greens roll very good and you need to be on the right level or you will be facing some very fast and extreme breaking putts. I don't think this is normal there, but I played it on a sunday and I played it in just over 3 hours. Staff is very friendly and helpful and even got me out earlier then my scheduled tee time. I hope to get to play it again, but the price will keep me away.

My first time playing this course and I was pleasantly surprised. It was in fantastic shape and the greens where in fair condition considering that they were recently airated. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful and I truly look forward to playing it again. The course requires that you are accurate off the tee because the rough is thick and getting a good solid clubface on the ball is a challenge. A very good mix of left to right and right to left holes so it will make you work the ball. To me the signature hole is #11 a par 4 that from the black tees plays 371 yards, but you must keep your tee shot to the right side of the fairway. If you tug your tee shot to the left then you face an uphill approach shot to a green that is almost entirely blocked out by a giant tree that protects the front of the green. And I dont mean a medium size tree, but a giant tree about 70 feet tall. All in all this course is a must and with multiple tees it can play different every time you play it.
