Played this morning in 1st group out. POP was 3 hrs. Me in a cart and 3 walkers with electric carts (and all 3 over 80 and I dont have an elec cart OK). Thats how its done LOL. Other than the overcast and light fog along with damp fairways (dried out some by back 9) the course played very well. All the tee boxes were playable. Fairways had been mowed and provided good lies all round but not much roll out. Traps were all clean and playable. Rough on outside of fairways and hillsides is deep and easy to lose a ball not to mention hard to advance. Greens were in great shape and chipped and putted with speed on all 18 holes. They held high shots and released shots depending upon the type of shot you played. Aeration 10/6 and 7 so play before then. Customer service in the shop was great and the starter Curtis is a great host. Sr rate with LA county card is $23.25 to walk and + $15.50 ($39.75) to ride. Recommended.

Happy to see the previous review. I have been waiting to see one for several months that would be +/- to decide to play there again. After reading the review I went this AM early and got out after only 1/2 hour wait. Previous posting hits all the right items and I also found the POP to be great at 4 H something that was a problem for me in the past. Great customer service and good coffee as well. If you can get an early time I recommend the course. Great rate using the Sr LA County card.

PLayed here 07/29/23 for the first time in decades. I know alot complain of the slow rounds here, but perhaps I played mid-week, I was flying through..the round was completed in under 4 hours. Anyway, the course is in great shape, fairways are great if not perfect..greens are xlnt. The tee box is fluffy so they may need to mow it a tad..but otherwise great conditions. For the money it is a deal! Course overall is in great/xlnt shape at this time.

I hadnt played here in probably 30 years. A buddy had a time @ 9:45, 3/24/24 so I decided to join to complete the foursome. The course looked good walking in from the parking lot. Plenty green grass everywhere, the practice facilities were packed, there was a lot of people there. Even with that they got us out a little early. We rode the Blue Tees, the course is not long but you have to be hitting the ball well. Several blind tee shots and a lot of slight elevation change shots. The Par 3's were a good challenge with the longest being 200 yards. The greens had some pitch and for the most part rolled true, although they seemed a little slow for my liking. The fairways were nice and there was visible rough, and it was still wet from the previous rain so it made it tough at times to find errant shots and hit out of. Carts are plain jane, no GPS. We saw the beverage cart about 5 times in the round. I cant tell you the rack rate as the round was free, :-) Really the only complaint was some of the bunkers had hard pan. And the pace of play was slow. We finished a little after 5+ hours but it could have been faster if people had realistic understanding of their games and when they could hit rather than waiting. It was cold and windy the whole round, so when things heat up a little I would return and play it again.

Played here for the first time a few weeks ago on a Saturday. Buddy was able to book a 8:15 tee time which was a miracle in its own right. We all arrived and saw the long backlog of carts on #1 tee. When my buddy went to check in, he said they were running 30 minutes behind. We ended up teeing off at 9am.

The front 9 took us 3 hours to finish. Back 9 moved a little quicker and we were able to finish in about 2 hours 20 minutes.

Conditions were a little better than expected but I think all Socal courses greatly benefitted from all the rain a few months ago.

I probably wouldn't play here again, especially on a weekend.

There must’ve been a late cancellation because I got a Saturday morning teatime at La Mirada la Mirada. The course was very busy but we got out on time. I was very impressed with the course conditions right now, green red or nicely in the fairways were lush. Kind of an interesting layout with three par threes in the front nine. Thought that might cause things to back up but we really didn’t have a problem. Overall the course was pleasing to the eye, the only exception being the oddball par five, #16. Going to have to play that a few more times in order to figure out the best way to attack it. The price was right at about 65 bucks including cart, so I’ll be back…

I played here with my regular Friday tournament group. We haven't played here for about 6 months. I was really happy to see them improve the golf experience in many ways. First off, they are not over booking tee times. The groups where spaced out nicely. Pace of play is much better. Today they did have fairway aerating, so the ball wasn't
really rolling out from the drives, mostly Carry. But, overall in the next couple of from now, it will be in great shape. The tee where firm and flat, and not too beat up.. the rough seem a bit long, 3"-4", you can just see the top of your ball, when you roll up on it. It does take a good swing and contact to get your ball up and out... So stay within the fairways. The bunkers seemed to have nice quality sand. They did have Greenskeepers going around raking and fluffing the bunkers. The greens are in great condition too. They are rolling medium pace and really true to the cup. I plan on coming back in a few weeks, when the fairways will probably be in great shape.

Sunday round at La Mirada with a buddy after a booking earlier in the week and no other tee times showed up that seemed better. We had a 1:30 tee time and I rode while my friend walked. We were paired up with two nice gents and away we went.

I always enjoy this course in terms of layout and fun, but conditions right now are quite poor. It's playable for sure, but it's definitely seen better days. Right now you're going to find burned-out fairways, slow and spongey greens, thin bunkers and devastated tee boxes. There isn't a single aspect of La Mirada right now which couldn't use significant improvement, and that's a shame because it is quite a fun and interesting layout.

There was no cart service either all afternoon with temperatures well into the 90s, but there is a fairly convenient snack/lounge area near the starter's office. The range is also very convenient and not too shabby. The carts are very bare bones but work just fine.

The main issue here is conditions. Again, the greens are very slow right now and you can create a massive foot imprint just by standing on some sections of the greens. They're more bumpy than any player would like and it's just difficult to make true putts with so many other things wrong with them. I suppose they do hold shots well at least, so there's that.

Fairways are filled with thin lies and burnout areas, so when you do find a nice lush spot (mostly in the rough), it's a moment to rejoice. I hit a lot of good shots up near the greens and was disappointed when I had to chip from dirt patches or super thin earth instead of the rewarding chip shot I should have gotten.

Bunkers were okay but definitely on the thin side, however the played better than I thought they would. But the tee boxes - what a mess. A few were simply dirt patches, others completely unkempt and thick with shaggy madness, and others just okay. I'm not sure why they don't move them around more often to avoid this disaster, but I'm sure they have their reasons.

POP was actually surprisingly good on this not-so-busy Sunday afternoon, so that was nice. We only waited on a few holes and it was never too outrageously long, so that was a nice bonus. Staff also seemed very nice and helpful.

I look forward to coming back here again one day when the conditions are somewhat closer to 'good' like they have been in the past.

The course condition was good and worth to play. They place the new glass on #16.
Green was smooth and fast.
Fairway condition was great too.
I loved to play.
