El Dorado Park is a challenging course, with more a test of accuracy than distance. Ample parking, simple and efficient pro shop and a decent driving range with mats at one end and grass at the other. They are installing shot tracer very shortly at the mats. The course is well maintained and pace of play is generally very good with a 4.5 hr round typical. Plenty of water and wildlife throughout your 18 hole adventure. The course is in good shape, although the bunkers could use a little extra fresh sand.
The bar is friendly and the course restaurant is always popular.
Long Beach has some nice municipal courses and El Dorado is one of the best.
