I love golf in Long Beach. 6 courses within 20 minutes drive and El Dorado is no exception! Great shape in my honest opinion. Greens have come back to some of the truest rolling greens I have seen in a long while. For a public course your ball will roll true enough with a few bounces but hey for the money you deal with the slight pitfalls. Fairways in great shape, some standing water and mud, I think they are trying to winterize the course and promote some additional root growth, that and the recent rains make for some sections to be soggy. Most of these sections are not in the range of play just alongside certain holes and transitions. Aside from that it's still Long Beach's premiere course. Great value but do expect some slow play. Case in point, we were playing behind a 3-some and were on their tail as a 5-some the whole bloody round except at the turn where I think they decided to bail.

The greens are absolutely immaculate. The fairways are in excellent condition.

This is my home course -- I've played 300+ rounds here. Last played 9/27, two weeks after aeration. In a week, the greens will be nearly perfect, if you play in the morning, because the poa annua bu... Continue »

This is my home course -- I've played 300+ rounds here. Last played 9/27, two weeks after aeration. In a week, the greens will be nearly perfect, if you play in the morning, because the poa annua buds as the day goes on, and they get bumpy.
I was in the 6th group, and the round took 3:50, which is a good pace. There are some burned out places in the fairway, but overall, the course is in good shape. Teeboxes are not uniformly level, and Rec gets so much play, that they need to re-sod teeboxes regularly.
The breakfast burrito is worth the price, for breakfast or lunch.

One of my favorite courses in Long Beach area. Can't beat the price.

played at 7 am on a saturday 4 days after aeration. The course overall is very nice. it is not long, but, it moves around nicely.lots of elevation changes and doglegs in both directions. With the greens just punched, but smooth, the pace of play was unbeleivable. On a 5somes course we finished in 3 hours 55 minutes!!! While i know the pace of play was due to a number of circumstances, it was so good I will go back just to prove to myself it was a fluke. (and I don't mean a tester)

This course is fun...super fast greens. However, fairways + tee boxes + sand were not so great. We played on a special that included lunch and a cart for $35. This made it worthy, but it is not a 7.0 ... Continue »

This course is fun...super fast greens. However, fairways + tee boxes + sand were not so great. We played on a special that included lunch and a cart for $35. This made it worthy, but it is not a 7.0 plus, more like a 5.0 plus. This is an "American Golf" course, but the fairways are not...I REPEAT very fast greens, spend at least a half hour on the putting green, or you will be putting thru the break.
