The best L.A. City course to play by far. It's in great shape right now. The greens haven't been this nice in a long time. I walked up on a Friday morning with a twosome. We had to wait a while but the Starter was great and actually walked into the clubhouse to find us because we couldn't hear our names being called. The girl in the clubhouse was awesome too. The workers from other L.A. City courses should go to Hansen Dam and learn how to treat customers. Tee boxes & sand bunkers need a little help but overall this a a great public course.

I REALLY ENJOYED PLAYING THIS COURSE. THE PERSONNEL THERE ARE VERY ACCOMADATING. I WALKED UP WITH NO RESERVATIONS (7:30 AM) AS A SINGLE AND WAS IMMEDIATELY PLACED IN A GROUP. THE COURSE LOOKS WELL MAINTAINED FOR AN LA CITY COURSE. THE FAIRWAYS AND ROUGHS ARE GROOMED NICELY. THE GREENS WHERE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION, IT REALLY SURPRISED ME BECAUSE I HAVE READY DIFFERENT COMMENTS ABOUT OTHER CITY COURSES. THE ONLY IMPROVEMENT I SEE IS BETTER SAND FOR THE SAND TRAPS. SINCE IT MAY HAVE BEEN SHIPPED IN FROM ONE OF THE LA BEACHES, I FULLY UNDERSTAND WHY THE QUALITY OF SAND WAS SO POOR AND THIN. THE PACE PLAYED GOOD FOR A WEEK DAY SINCE THERE WHERE QUIT A NUMBER OF WALKERS ON THE COURSE. I WOULD PLAY THIS COURSE AGAIN.

I played last Thursday early in about 4:15. The course was in typical winter condition with lots of tight lies on the fairways. The greens were generally in good shape. A couple of weeks of 80 degree ... Continue »

I played last Thursday early in about 4:15. The course was in typical winter condition with lots of tight lies on the fairways. The greens were generally in good shape. A couple of weeks of 80 degree weather would make everything fine.

Had an 8:12 time Sunday morning. Showed up around 7:45 and noticed no one was on the course and lot's of cars heading out. Outside temp reading from the car was showing a balmy 47 degrees. Got to the starters window and there was a sign that said the course was closed because of "Frozen Greens" and would stay that way until at least 9:30am. Not a sign of frost any where and the practice greens were just fine. I understand the need to protect the integrity of the course and not to allow play when a signiifcant amount of damage can occur, BUT......it was close to 50 degrees!! Thumbs down to the crew at Hansen.

Wednesday afternoon round took over 5 1/2 hours. I will say that it was a consistent 5 1/2 hours. Not rush then wait.

Wednesday afternoon round took over 5 1/2 hours. I will say that it was a consistent 5 1/2 hours. Not rush then wait.

The course itself is in decent shape. The greens are in the best shape I've seen them. They are faster than normal for here. The greens are quirky though, there were a couple of putts that broke one way for some of us, and the opposite for someone else. Even with the greens in good shape, I hate putting at this place.

The rest was average. Fairways were acceptable, tee boxes were flat, but some thin areas. The sand was not very consistent. Hard as a rock in one area of a bunker, soft in another.

Played 10/23. Greens are in very good shape after aerification about 6 weeks ago. A couple of the greens are a little soft so you get some footrprint problems, but overall, they are the best I've se... Continue »

Played 10/23. Greens are in very good shape after aerification about 6 weeks ago. A couple of the greens are a little soft so you get some footrprint problems, but overall, they are the best I've seen in a while. The fairways are spotty. Some are green with some decent grass on them. Others have some bare or thin spots. Overall, a good value.

service on the course was fine. service in the coffee shop was poor.

VERY DISAPOINTED , THEY RECENTLY RAISED THE PRICES ON CITY COURSES, AND THEY ARE IN THE WORST SHAPE I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS , WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING ?

I don't know what those last two guys are talking about. 6 hour rounds at Hansen Dam? Did you play on a Sunday at 2:00 when it's busy everywhere? And how can you say Griffith Park & Rancho are better? They are 3 times as busy. And they are not in any better shape. Especially Rancho. Plus those two courses have very rude starters (except the early morning guy at Griffith). If you ever need a marshal at Griffith Park you need to call the snack bar. Hansen Dam may not be in tip top shape but it is one of the best city courses for the money.
