“Probably one of the best conditioned clubs in LA area. Pretty difficult off the tee, bunch of interesting shots. Great all day experience. Wish it was more walkable.”

“One of the hardest tracks in LA, if you’re a bit off with your approach game it’s going to be a long day. Greens can be brutal and the wind is unforgiving. Great matchplay course and a hidden gem.”

“Brilliant use of completely uninspiring land from Gil Hanse and Geoff Shackelford to create a minimalistic masterpiece. Rustic rewards the ground game through width and angles, firm and fast conditions, and extremely subtle contour.”

“Can be far from LA, but an absolute gem of a William Bell design that was renovated by Gil Hanse. Under $50 walking is maybe the best deal in SoCal golf. The layout is also tremendous.”

“Fairways, greens, and tee boxes all in good condition. Facilities consists of two mobile boxed buildings, nothing fancy, but a nice track for the fellas!”

“One of the better munis in the SoCal region. Well kept fairways and greens. Tee boxes aren’t always the flattest but it’s a public track. Tough and fun layout.”

“The course itself is very much target golf. You have to hit the exact shot it requires or it penalizes you unfairly. You can hit a good drive but be left with a ball shin high.”

“Fun track. Round comes with a lunch. A nice public option. Marshall’s can be a tad pushy even when the entire day is blocked. Par fives are reachable which makes this for a very scorable weekend tee time”
