Golf Course Reviews
Golf Course Reviews: California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, Florida, Hawaii!Had not played Lakewood for a while, so nice to return. Stange how the older I get, the longer the golf course gets! As stated in the last review, the fairways are not exactly conducive to roll, so that made the course play even longer. Greens were the best part of the course, although not as good as expected. The worst part was my senior discount card had expired, so the additional $$ was tough to take. They will be punching greens in a couple weeks - FYI.
Out early in the dark at 5:55 Monday on a really pleasant morning. Rather busy, so nice to get out ahead of the crowds. (Despite the fact it was pitch black out and I could not see until #4, there was a single and twosome in front of me) Dealing with Ruth in pro shop is always a positive way to begin the day here.
I was impressed with the overall condition of the course, particularly the fairways. Greens were good, (Except the rear portion of #5) but slower than I remember them being. Bunkers were thin but were maintained. Always enjoy my rounds at Dos Lagos, and compared to other courses, still decently priced.

Out early on a busy morning. While the North course is in far better condition than the South course, there are still a few issues with respect to the fairways. Greens rolling well with decent pace and still very receptive. The majority of the fairways are good, but still a few areas which need attention. Bunkers seem to be improving as well. Course has withstood the recent heat wave rather well. Overall, the course continues to present a challenge, but fair
Thankfully able to get out first on what turned out to be a very hot day. Playing quickly and early, beating the heat made the round so much more tolerable. Sadly, the fairways have never fully recovered from the aeration/overseeding done last month. They will be overseeding on late September, so hopefully this will resolve the problem. Greens rolled well with decent pace. Tee boxes and bunkers were fine, just the fairways are a problem right now.
I had not played little Brookside for a while, so was looking forward to returning. Kevin's recent review was spot on and rather thorough, so not a lot I can add. The greens were better than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise. A rather warm morning but beating the afternoon heat was a real bonus. That, plus the cost for seniors is still very reasonable. If I lived closer, I'd probably play here more frequently, because as I've aged, this course has become so much more playable than big Brookside.
Nice to get back to play Rec Park. Always one of my favorite places to play. As the prior reviewer indicated, course is in very good overall condition, particularly the greens. Given the amount of play this course gets, it is impressive how well maintained it is. The only complaint I have is just how expensive it is to play golf here. (Truth is that's case everywhere) Sure do miss the pre-covid days when the courses were somewhat empty and much more affordable.
Out early on a really pleasant morning. It is a pleasure to play the North course right now, and because the South course is undergoing some maintenance, the North is much more crowded and desirable to play. Greens rolling true with nice pace. Not too quick, but fast enough to keep one's interest. Still very receptive. Good coverage in the fairways. Tee boxes, bunkers remain in good shape. The course will undergo aeriation of fairways and tees in early August. Just hope the recovery is quick and positive.
Out first on a rather busy morning. They just recently aerified and lightly overseeded the fairways, so they were as expected, not exactly in the best playing condition. Hopefully the expected warm weather will allow the seed to germinate, and thing will improve in the next few weeks. Greens were bumpier than usual but had decent pace. Summer traditionally has been a difficult time for conditions at Coto, which is surprising. Just need to give things a little time see how everything plays out.
Had not played Chino Creek for a while, so it was nice to return. Nothing has really changed much. Greens still the best part of the course, but fairways were better than expected. Still scruffy in many areas, but that's the condition this course has always presented. It is still just basic golf at a realistic price, which now days is rather refreshing.
First out on a beautiful early summer morning. Since they are holding the club championship this week, the course is as expected in very nice shape. I was surprised the green speeds were not quicker. Not that they were slow by any means, just not as fast as expected. Overall, the course continues to improve. Question is if they can maintain these conditions as we begin to experience the anticipated heat of summer.
First out as usual on a busy Friday morning. Lots of maintenance, which is a good thing, I guess. Course has been steadily improving with the recent change in management. Greens rolling very true with decent pace and very receptive. Fairways are now getting really nice. Bunkers, surrounds, tee boxes all are fine. Nice to see the level of care now being exhibited, which was long overdue.
Nice to get back out to Dos Lagos. It had been almost six months since I last played here. As always, Ruth in the pro shop was a joy to deal with. What a great way to start the day with such a positive person to deal with prior to your round. It was rather busy this morning, but able to get out early thanks to Ruth and finished in 2:19.
Course is not in as good condition was when I last played, particularly the greens, which were kind of slow and did not roll very true. Fairways were nice, however. Several of the tee boxes, particularly #16 were in desperate need on being resodded. Enjoyed the round despite my poor play. Always good to begin the week on a positice note.
