The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
A quirky old South Bay muni with an unusual 11-hole routing where seven of the back-nine holes replay the front from different tees and angles. A friendly, walkable, beginner-friendly oddity rather than a serious test, with a memorable downhill drivable par-3 closer.
Consistently praised
- A distinctive 11-hole routing with shared teeing areas off the same hilltop.
- A drivable downhill par-3 closing hole, and a small-town friendly staff at an unhurried pace.
Worth knowing
- Conditioning is plain muni, not pristine.
Golfers recommend
- Treat it as a quick 9 or a curiosity round, not a destination test.
- Bring something below driver off some tees; the hill and trees punish length.
