    This place is my go to place for a round of golf with some friends. Mind you, it's a par three course so the holes are shorter than your full courses and more beginner friendly. They also have soccer golf available if you ever wanted to give it a try. Plenty of spots available at the driving range (which used to be a football field and they still have the post up at the end) and you can walk on during the week and still get a tee time. I recommend making reservations first as it will get packed during the evenings and weekends. I highly recommend this place for anyone interested in learning how to play golf or don't want to pay expensive course fees.

    Pro shop, sells only candy and soft drinks.

    Family friendly and wallet friendly 9 hole golf course! If you want a golf course where you can bring the whole family or new golfers this is your place! The pro shop- small shop but has everything you need for the day. Only sells candy and soft drinks. Friendly staff and restrooms are clean! The course-9 hole par 3 course. You will be hitting off green range mats at every whole. I think the longest whole was about 115. Fairways are hit and miss but the greens are kept up very nicely by the grounds crew! Lots of divots on greens from other golfers. Driving range-2 levels with nice mats. No tees so bring your own. Price for a large bucket was $16. Yellow range balls were a little muddy but in decent shape. Only complaint was there were so few baskets for the whole range and only counted a handful. Seemed like the locals would hog the baskets. There is a second level which is usually empty but has no shade. There is a football field goal post about 100 yards out which makes this place a very unique place to hit some balls. Practice area-Two decent size putting greens and a chipping area with a sand trap. Great practice location. Parking- Parking was super close and easy to find, be careful parking next to the practice area there was some close calls while we were out there! Overall you can't go wrong with this little golf course! It's cheap and well maintained! Check out review on YouTube @LilGolfBros

    I came across this location through yelp search. This is a nice little golf range in Norwalk. The staff were really nice. The range is closed between 3:00pm - 5:00pm for cleaning. When I say little golf range, I meant the range can only accommodate about more or less 10 spots. It doesn't have a grill or thing that divides the spots in between so hopefully the person in front of you doesn't make a wide and long twist. Otherwise, it's clean, nice and average noise. I will definitely come back here if I'm in the area.

    As of 2/19/2024. Updated range hours.

    New range hours. Golf balls have gotten better than before. Glad they threw out all the old balls.

    This is a beautiful facility to work on your short game, Today I paid for 9 holes and on the the 3rd hole I was approached by one of the front desk worker asking if I paid for my round, The issue is that he was yelling at me and it was very embarrassing, The group in front of me cut from #6 to #3, I asked him this group cut in front of me and you are approaching me if I paid my $8.25 to play ‍... I was really upset because he told me I was not allowed on the course and ended up calling the cops on me.. This is still my favorite place to practice despite the lack of employee training. Posted a photo of this employee that called the cops on me.. The facility get 5 stars but this loser get a fat 0 star

    Came here on a Friday around 4:30. Almost all the spots were taken on the ground floor but they clear out pretty fast. Seems like everyone comes here to get their bucket shots worth and leaves. You can go to the main building to purchase the balls per bucket or purchase a key fob for $35 for one bucket, once a day usage. It's clean and spacious and everything is in good shape. The only downside to this place is depending on the time of day, you're facing the sun. I had to take a break and scoot back to where the benches are in between because the sun was getting too much, even with my hat on. I won't forget to put on some sunblock next time I'm here.

    Nice driving range with 2 levels, get a bucket of balls for only $10. They recently added Players Club which gets you a bucket of balls a day for $40/month. The 9 hole 3-par golf course is great for beginners and cost less than $10 per person.

The place has been around quite some time and kids do tend to make a mess, but they keep up after it. Parking is for a fee, but sometimes you get a game card that comes with the parking. It can get crowded in the summer and on weekends. We go on week days and have been several times. Now, the prices in here add up fast so be mindful of that, but it is the same as other similar places. Miniature golf is about 16$, a go kart is about 12$, the arcade can really add up so get a card that you can use for the wide variety of games they have. The bumper boats and Disk Thrill Ride are about 12$ per person. We love their little train and that is about 5$. You can get a two hour wrist band and we do that and save a lot that way. All in all the prices are fair. The service there is nice and the place has a lot to offer, you don't have to do it all. There is a lot to do. They also have Birthday Parties there and that is great.

That is not standard practice at all, and she completely felt uncomfortable. On top of that, this creates a real privacy and security concern. Personal belongings like wallet, phone, and other valuables are typically kept in the cart, and being required to share that space with someone you don't know raises the risk of loss or theft. When we raised concerns, guy at the proshop said I'd have to pay $16 extra for her to ride alone with a theory we paid for a seat and not the cart! How ridiculous! I have never heard anything like this before because we all paid for the cart. Next day, we played at Skylinks in Long Beach, which is also a Los Angeles municipal course, and they gave our 3rd player her own cart. And 4th individual player got his own cart. So this is certainly not a norm. Dear management, your cart sharing policy could discourage players from returning and may ultimately impact customer retention more than it helps operational savings.
