Fun short little executive course - 18 holes aprox 3000 yrds. Fairways were in great shape for the traffic they get. Greens were in decent shape, but like most high traffic public courses, had alot of unrepaired ball marks. These greens can be tough, none are flat, some are ungulated. Sand was hard packed, like hitting out of dirt. Overall a fun place to pratice your short game, would be a very good course to take kids or beginners.

This was my first time at Scholl Canyon. I paid $27 for a cart on Sunday twilight (3pm tee off) in a foursome. There were some waits, but nothing too bad. We finished in about 3.75 hours- not bad. Great views, even in the haze/smog. Tee boxes a little chewed up- fairways were ok- rough was deep in parts- bunkers had very rough sand- greens were tough and were in great shape. Would definitely go back.

Played Sat. 7/12 at 6:26 in the morning as part of two fivesomes. We finished in 3:45 hrs. Some tee boxes were not level and a couple of greens had too many divots; I repaired as many as I could without slowing play down. Great place to use short irons and wedges. The greens are deceiving. We really enjoyed the challenge and we will be returning. Dig the par-3 that is surrounded by canyons.

What a great place to go when you don't feel like playing, or don't have the time to play, a full regulation-sized course. Awesome service and the views are spectacular when not smoggy. Tees are not located per the yardage specs, so you'll have to use your brain to gage distance. I wonder when they'll put 'em back? Overall, had a great time today and finished the course in exactly three hours! Never done that before!

tcmae - Los Angeles, CA 
Altadena Golf Course is a Par 35 9 Hole Regulation Golf Course operated by LA County and managed by DC Golf. The course is mostly flat and a short course with some long Par 4 holes with wide and straight fairways in the course, and it measures almost 3000 yards off the blue tees. The driving range mostly uses grass most of the time, but most of the time, the grass in the range is poorly maintained, and some tees are mostly all dirt you are hitting off of, it is $8 for a large bucket, also the course has a practice chipping green, a large putting green, and a practice bunker seperated from the chipping and putting green. The green fees are $16 on weekend/holidays, $14 on weekdays, $12 twlight, around $7 for a cart, and $5 for juniors. It is a fun course for everyone, it will give experience for a beginner to play a regulation long course, and a practice from the challanging regulation courses for adavanced players. The course is decently maintained, but when I played there, all the greens were just newly aerated, but the fairways are acually pretty good when I played there, but most of the time, the course is poorly maintained with the fairways bad, and some of the greens poorly maintained, but some of them are really slopey.

jbull29 - La Crescenta, CA 
Played supertwilight with my wife on 6/22 and managed to get in 18 holes in a little over 2 hrs; not bad considering we were stuck behind a group of hacks for the final 8 holes. Course is nothing to write home about, although it gives you the opportunity to work on your short game. The best thing about this course is the view of the LA Basin.

My wife enjoys this course a lot because it gives her the confidence she needs to take her game to the next level. All of the holes are in reach for her, she has some margin for error on the front nine, and the greens are average speed at best. Since we moved to La Crescenta a few months ago we have tried to play here every other Sunday evening in preparation for her law firm's tournament this coming Saturday at Monarch Beach. We are the two time defending champs, do mostly in part to our handicaps. (I am an 8, she is a 27)

axeljeff - Los Angeles, CA 
Played Scholl Canyon for the first time today, and what a fun little course it is!

Even though it's a short par 60, there were definitely enough challenges to keep things very interesting. In fact, there are several holes on the back 9 that will test both your club selection strategies and your precision shotmaking skills -- especially the narrow, canyon-surrounded green on 14 and the dogleg-across-a-chasm challenge on 13. And the elevation changes and canyon wind conditions can make for some difficult decisions.

The greens' placement on the hills -- and the somewhat skewed perspective they present -- make reading them a little tricky, though if you play the course enough (like Los Verdes), I'm sure you get to know their personalities.

The course was in relatively good shape; however, I was surprised to see some dried out brown patches on the fairways just a few days after a decent-sized (by California standards) rainstorm. I must agree, though, with an earlier comment about the number of ball marks on the greens. Frankly, there shouldn't be any par 3 or executive courses that let players on without a) asking if each player has a repair tool and b) asking if they know how to use it. When the very premise of your course is to crank up the short irons and send balls high and short, you need to make sure your clientele understands proper ball mark etiquette.

Scholl Canyon was an alright course. THe price was just like the regular city course but is much smaller. A lot of small par 3's but the view of Los Angeles might be worth it for some of you because it was a clear day on Sunday at it was beautiful. You'll have a good challange and you're playing golf so who care's about anything else. Have a bear and smile!!!!!!

This is a very quirky little course. Our tee time was around 7am on 07/21 and we got on promptly. Although the course is short, it requires good club selection and ball placement. The greens were a little tricky and the view is very nice. This course is good for intermediate players but not for beginners. The playing conditions were good and the price is cheap (around $32 to ride depending on how you book).

Probably one of the best scenic par 3 course around. Views of downtown LA, Downtown Glendale, and pasadena. Good course to work on your short game. Conditions of the course isnt very good right now due to aerated greens. But always fun to drive a par 4 on one.

ams30gts - Montebello 
I haven;t played here in a while. But its pretty much as i remembered. 3 of us got through in about 2 hours. Was pretty wide open around 2pm on saturday. On the most part the course is playing pretty well. Great for the short game practice. Tee boxes need to be leveled a bit. Fairways were a bit dry, but pretty good. Traps were excellent apart from the ones with huge puddles of water in them. greens were excellent. fast and firm. I just wish all the beginners would learn how to fix ball marks. i would fix 3-4 just around mine on every hole.

i recommend playing there. massive elevation changes and fun holes. if you are not consistant in hitting your wedges straight with loft, be prepared to lose a bunch of balls on the back 9

Scholl Canyon is a very fun course to play. Set in the beautiful mountains you have some very picaresque views of nature. Great course to work on your short game with a challenge. Very nice driving range with a view of Downtown LA on a clear day. This is a gem that someone could only find on the internet or by word of mouth in my opinion. Thats how I actually discovered it.

Best executive course I've played in L.A. area and a hidden gem. Fair and fun for beginners while challenging enough for experienced golfers to make it interesting, especially the hairy back 9, where an errant shot leads to a lost ball in the canyon on nearly every hole. Best two holes are #13 and #14. #13 is an uphill dogleg par 4 that requires a pinpoint layup first shot and an even more accurate approach to a uphill green that has a mountain on the left and canyon to the right. Hole #14 is a short par 3 with a narrow island green ala #17 at Sawgrass, only instead of water surrounding the hole, it's canyon in front of the hole and behind the hole. Only drawbacks are they sometimes put the tees way in front of the posted yardage, making for some odd, extremely short par 3s (on the flipside, allows you to drive the green on the par 4s). Also some of the pin placements (#1, #9) border on unplayable when the greens are running fast late in the afternoon, as the slopes do not allow putts to come to a stop. Best feature of Scholl Canyon is the super twilight rate (starting at 3:30), which is $17 w/ cart. A month ago started at 3:30 with a buddy and got in 36 holes before it got dark, can't beat that for $17 in L.A.

I can't visit this site w/out leaving a review for Scholl Canyon. First off, it's an executive par 3 w/a few par 4's. Not like any other Par 3 in CA and I've played many of them. Blows MPK or ARCADIA away. Definitely a hidden gem. Very challenging par 3's with uphill and downhill holes with a crazy dogleg par 4 (hole # 12). Most challenging par 3 is probably #13. If you hit short, it drops into the canyon. If you hit long, it's over the hill and unrecoverable. I can't say enough about Scholl. The condition of the greens and fairways are good. Sometimes hole location is an absolute challenge. Especially on #1 and #9, both par 4's. Definitely worth the price and the time.

Nice executive type course. Set on the hills with several barrancas. A very fun course for all levels. Take a lot of balls if your off line.

If in LA and want to get away for some fast golf, great place. The views are great if the air is clean, so bring a camera. Great place to work on your irons
