Have seen a lot of improvements in Diamond bar in the last few months, but one easy improvement that is really needed is the attitude of the starter. Played last weekend with a morning t tee, we were about 5 minutes from our t time and saw the t box was practically empty, so started to walk towards the #1 T box, as we are a few yards away, the starter "Michael" immediately told us to get away and go back to the putting area, he said that there was a tournament and we cannot be there until he is done with the tournament, asked how much longer, was told he does not know, it was a big group. To get to the point, if there is a tournament, why do they have t time in the morning? Also, instead of being courteous to the golfers, the starter was really rude, after all, we had a t time and nobody told us that there was a tournament. In the first place, the golf course should not have t time available when they have a tournament(was told it was a shotgun) , and to make matters worst should train their staff on how to handle customers- especially if the golf management screwed up on their scheduling and customers are there to enjoy the day and not have their weekend golf ruined by such rude attitudes.

Played Sunday 4/10, not too busy because of rain prediction that did not come true. Anyway, course and service was good as usual, greens were a bit slow still recovering from recent 1/2 aeration, the big surprise is that they finally have marshals pushing players to catch up, this is something that I personally feel is a welcome sight in Los Verdes. Hopefully this will bring down the play to a more leisure time. Another thing they should consider is find a way to have everyone play the correct tees - according to their golf skill level.

Play Saturday weekends at least 2 times a month at La Mirada, the course condition is pretty much good standard public course, but our experienced with getting an on time t time (at least on Saturdays) has been going down hill. T times starts used to be pretty much on time or delayed by a few minutes, but in the last few months, delays of at least 30 minutes seems be normal for this course, and every time we mentioned this to the starter, the response was that it depends on how the people at the pro-shop set it up. Well I can say that ever since they change the people at the pro shop that was when t times delays started, which kind of tells me something is not right here.

This course has made a lot of improvements in the past months. #3 greens, pretty on time tee times, etc. but what is happening to the huge water hazard that covers most of #2, 10~12 and 18th? smells really bad, seems like pumps were taken out of something, but the smell is starting to be a big problem. Another thing I observed is that gopher holes are starting to show up in some of the front nine holes. I hope the management team starts looking in to this problem or the course is going to be in bad shape in a couple of months and all the recent improvements will just go to waste.

Played 12/22 morning, back nine pretty much done w/ recent renovations, w/ 18th hole still had some areas off limit to allow new grounds and sands some time to heal, overall looks good. Now if only the marshals can push the POP, at least w/ groups that are one hole behind to keep pace, and management post a sign or something in the starting tee box regarding on who should be playing the back tee, this would really make LV the true gem of southern Cal.

Always valued getting a t time especially during the weekend. Part of course currently under construction for even better play in the future. The nice views, greens, fairways, etc. may be great about this course , but my recent customer experience w/ the course manager practically ruined my weekend. Had a 9:16 t time last Saturday, expected some delay since clubhouse announced my group as 4th up about 15 minutes in to T time, which is common in a busy course like LV, but when we were supposed to be next up, the clubhouse change our t time priority to 3rd up, and move two groups behind us as next and 2nd up, when we asked the starter why the change, he only said he don't know, since the announcement came from the Clubhouse and he only follow ouders. I also asked the group which was moved up what their t time was and was told it was for 9:24, When we went to the clubhouse, the manager said he changed it, because they were having problems w/ their computer, which does not make sense, since what he did was move our tee time back 2 groups, and give our priority to someone else. he also came up with other excuses like delays, etc, then asked if we would like a refund, then apologized for the problem, then move us back to next up, that is after the later group left the t box, which tells us that the manager "Bob" does not know or care about what happens to the customer, I wonder how he qualifies to run such a popular golf course. What is the point of getting a 9:16 t time, and they let the 9:24 t time group go ahead of you? This is probably how the county of LA spent our tax dollars. I hope that some changes take place with the people managing this course, or the tax dollars being spent trying to improve the course facility is just a total waste, because it is all about customer experience/satisfaction.

Played Saturday 4/7 w/ 8:24 tee time. Got off at about 8:40 which is acceptable, we had 2 groups ahead of us, was told they belong to the "president's club", the group right ahead of us was behind by as much as 2 holes, the marshal did push the group to catch up (3x), but the group just doesn't care. The marshals should be able to kick groups out of the course after several warning, and to think that this group belongs to some "club" , they should be most aware of course rules to keep up, what is the point of having a special club if they are not setting any examples, might as well ban the club. Also, what is the point of having marshals if the most they can do is bark up a tree. Kudos for the poor marshal, but the management need to set some rules, or just outright not manage the course.

played the course for the first time this morning-10/16. was expecting a so-so course for $46/rd. , but was pleasantly surprised with the layout and condition. Definitely worth the green fee, the only negative I can say is that a freight train came nearby during the round, and was a bit annoying, but definitely Great value, will certainly return to play in the near future.

played 1/30 mid morning tee time. Last time played here was at least a year ago, they finally reversed back hole #1 to the par 5, instead of the par 3 hole (original back 9). Greens are great, just wished that this course was nearer to LA. Overall, a great course to play.

Played Sat. 9/05. Course was not crowded at all for a long weekend, Fairway was dried off in prep for aeration, but overall the course still a great value in SoCal. I see some work being done, shows you that management is really trying to keep this course as one of the best in town. Keep up the great work. Hope to see all the changes done in a couple of months. Can't wait for my next tee time at EG.

Played 11/7, very gusty wind condition. Howerver, course condition was excellent, always impressed with how they keep the course so green and lush. I dare other public course in SoCal to say they have better maintenance. As always, triple thumbs up to the Goose Creek management and greenskeeper team. Now if only they can do something about turning down the wind. :-)

Played today with understanding that it will be cart path only, but fairway was wet, wet, wet, and sprinkler system continue to come on during play, which is not what we were expecting. This is what it says from the email from SCGA "On Sept 26th thru Oct 2nd the course will be roped off and cart paths only to allow for night time watering, while the overseeding of the fairways grow-in!" It should say that you will be playing in a marsh land environment, and should wear water boots instead of golf shoes.
