This modern design snakes through what was once industrial land, now sculpted into a forgiving, player-friendly layout. Fairways are generous, inviting golfers to swing freely, though strategically placed bunkers and water hazards lurk for the wayward shot, especially as the course matures.
Originally designed by Matt Dye, the course prioritizes accessibility and enjoyment. While not a championship venue, its appeal lies in its relaxed atmosphere and focus on the everyday golfer. A haven for local businesspeople and weekend warriors, The Lakes offers a convenient escape within the bustling South Bay region.
More than just a round, The Lakes at El Segundo has become a popular place for those looking to escape the board room and city streets. The course stands apart with its proximity to LAX. Enjoy a drink, and perhaps a little plane spotting.
