Play here every winter while visiting. Played on Monday, Jan. 8, and the wind was, oh I don't know, 100 m.p.h. It was brutal, especially downwind where it was hard to hit short shots with confidence. Course, however, was in beautiful condition, and bascially empty. Totally worth the drive from Pasadena, where I was staying.

Have been visiting SoCal every six months for 15 years and playing all sorts of courses. This one is very challenging. Huge greens, many undulations, some agonizing pin placements. A lot of forced carries, and waste areas on both sides of holes, which carry a one-stroke, lateral hazard, penalty. But there is enough landing area, in general. Beautiful condition, lots of interest, hole variety, etc. Definitely one of the best courses I have played in this area, though maybe not so much fun for those with handicaps over 15. Freeway noise everywhere, but no condos. We will put this course at the high end of our rota, which includes Oak Valley, Rustic Canyon and Malibu, and I encourage all locals to check it out. I think it will be many people's favorite course.

A little ragged on the front nine, and difficult to figure out exactly where to play the ball. The large shaved areas surrounding all greens makes the course confusing for a first-timer. Things are in better shape on the back nine. I'm not sure this course is worth the fantastic ratings it seems to get elsewhere. But it is a thoroughly enjoyable experience, a good value, very walkable, especially with the unusual three-wheeled push carts they rent.
Pace on a weekday a midday was a little slow.

What a pleasure to play. Great mix of holes, very few tricks. Nice condition. I couldn't believe the price and the brisk pace of play. One of the nicest daily-fee experiences I have had, and maybe the best value anywhere.
