About

The size of the greens can accommodate a variety of hole locations, allowing the course to play differently each time. You'll be tested with 80 strategically placed bunkers and 14 different lakes that come into play throughout. The generously wide fairways are seemingly docile but the subtle slopes and rolling terrain can be unforgiving.

Excellent course
Having played The National Golf Club of LA several times, this time was a little wetter than normal. The greens were in great shape, and you can tell that the course is very well maintained. It actually had rained several days in a row prior to our round, and we were still able to finish in about 4 hours, even with the 90 deg rule.
Beautiful course.
I only had time to play the back nine, but it was interesting, challenging and beautifully maintained. They only have a temporary clubhouse at this time, but the staff was very nice. The cart girl even came through three times on my 9-hole game. :-)
Great layout and interesting course.
Well maintained, friendly staff, interesting course. Well worth a visit
Great Fun Layout
Course has a great mix of holes. Tree lined fairways, some easy birdie holes, and some challenging par holes. Course was in great shape. Even thought they did a small tine aerification on 9 holes you could barely tell and it did not affect the play-ability of the greens or the consistency of them. Tee boxes are level with the grass cut down to the right height and there is a good distinction between fairway and rough.(Good Visual). Only disappointment, I noticed some of the fairway bunkers had grass growing in them. It is a hazard so it's not supposed to be perfect, but I'm sure the wonderful staff will have that handled soon. Great staff as well. A huge plus for them - after booking my tee time I received a call within 30 min notifying me of the light aerification they were doing and was asked if I still wanted my tee time. That was at 6pm too. A lot of courses now wouldn't bother. That's going above and beyond. Great Job Guys.
This course is well above par. One of the best I've played on.
Friendly staff. Great lay out. Very well maintained. It's a course you will tell your friends they must play.I have to drive an hour to get to the course,I don't mine because the course is worth it.
