My goal is to play every golf course in LA County (check out my IG @igolfla). I had some time on a Thursday so I headed down to South Gate. It's a relatively small, par 3 course. The course could use a little love (and money). Unfortunately, members of the local municipal government were recently embroiled in scandal where they were awarding themselves ridiculously massive paychecks, so I'm sure the lack of funds to this small, local course suffered the consequences of that. The flags were all tattered and almost none of the tee boxes had signs, except for 6 and 7. There was some cockamamie set up where to get to the tee box on 7, you have to cross the green of 8. And pretty much all of the ball washers were busted, most of them shut with zip ties. At any rate, the course has some interesting challenges - several of the fairways are narrow and tree lined, so if you can't hit low, you're going to hit the trees. This makes it a little more fun. It's a bit of a schlepp for me to get down to South Gate, and the course doesn't offer much, so I doubt I'd play there again, but if you're in the area, give it a go.

Pretty cool spot. Not the greatest conditions lately. But cheap spot and local to me. Great for 1st timers. Staff is also very nice and helpful.

Ideal spot to play some golf at by yourself!! A basket of medium balls (80 count) is around $13. A…read moresmall basket was 40 ct and a large basket was 100ct. Personally, I found that purchasing the medium basket for one ended up feeling like too much. I'm happy I was able to get the mechanics down more with the sesh though!! I got a good sweat in and overall felt happy I got to use my own golf clubs here. The range didn't look bad at all and the bathrooms were clean. Balls looked good and of newer quality. Not bad experience on a weekday afternoon

Very disappointing experience at Los Amigos Golf Course. We specifically planned to grab food and…read moredrinks after our round, only to find that both the bar and café were closed shortly after 2 PM on a Sunday. For a golf course, that's a prime time when many players are finishing their rounds and looking to relax with a meal or beverage. There was little indication beforehand that these facilities would be closed so early, which made the experience even more frustrating. The course itself may be fine, but the lack of food and beverage service during a busy weekend afternoon was a major letdown. Management should do a better job of communicating hours or extending service to accommodate golfers. This course used to be well maintained. Course conditions have definitely eroded since I played here last year. Taking this course of the list to play.

Mike Williams is a phenomenal swing instructor. I have been working with Mike for over 6 months on…read morea complete swing overhaul. Quick background, I have been golfing for over 20 years and prior to working with Mike I felt I was playing good golf, but had lost quite a bit of yardage and could not figure out what had changed. I had worked with a few different instructors and did not care for their teaching styles or philosophies while trying to find my way. After my initial meeting with Mike I felt this is someone who was going to take me in the right direction. Since I knew this was going to be a complete overhaul from rotation to swing plane to mentality, it was going to have to be a total commitment. The first couple of months was complete frustration as we worked to remove bad muscle memory. First we started with chipping and wedges to create a proper grip, take away and balance. As we graduated to a full swing we moved into greater detail about weight transition, shoulder turn (down not around), and hip movement (out not away). During these first few months, my game was bad and I was beyond frustrated almost to the point of giving up. But I knew this would happen from the outset and had to stay focused. This to me was part of the mental aspect and sticking to a firm commitment I had to my game improvement and to Mike's philosophy. As my game began to finally improve I was starting to play consistently good golf (back into the low 80's again). Mike saw that I became stagnant in some of my swing habits and reminded me that because I was playing good golf I was accepting these habits. He "forced" me to step up my game and not just accept my bad muscle memory, but work on correcting it and that I could do better. Within a couple of months I was then shooting constantly in the 70's. My experience with Mike is that if are willing to make the commitment to your game through hard work and practice he will be there to push you and not let you settle for anything less. He is extremely knowledgeable in the details and how to work with you on correcting them and he knows that there is not a one swing fits all. But, he also knows that there is a wrong way to swing a club and a right way. At some point everyone needs instruction on their swing (Tiger and Phil pay big money for that) and you should find the right person that you feel comfortable with. Life it too short to settle for anything less and there is no better feeling than kicking your buddies butts up and down the course.

Mr. Williams has a quiet commanding voice. He is patient and thoughtful. He will ask the question…read morethat will motivate you to think about what you are doing before you dress the ball. Mr. Williams is not only able to tell you what to do, but he is also able to demonstrate what he wants you to do.

Day one, we met with Tamica and were shown the venue. She gave us all the information and details…read moreof what was included if we booked with them. Everything was very clear and Tamica was incredibly helpful answering every single question and doubt we had. We had plenty of options to choose from that worked best for us and for what we wanted, as we were celebrating our daughter's Sweet 16. Our concern was having wine bottles placed on each table, and they gave us the option of not having them out, which also benefited us with the price. Tamica was so patient with us and never pressured us into making a decision that day. We still ended up signing the contract right then because we were so happy with everything the venue had to offer and how clearly Tamica explained it. She even offered us a glass of champagne and a glass of apple cider for our daughter to celebrate the first step of the journey to her Sweet 16. It was such a special touch. As time went on, Tamica was always on top of everything - from our meetings with the cake vendors, flower vendors, and invitation printing company. Everything was included, all we had to do was choose what we liked. She made sure we never missed an appointment and that we were always happy and content. As the day got closer we received an email that we would have Kali as our Event Coordinator. At first I was sad that I would no longer be working with Tamica, but once we had our in-person meeting with Kali, she was so informative and on top of all our choices and decisions that I didn't feel like we had to start all over again. Kali was so much help and I was definitely very happy having her as our coordinator. The day of the event was amazing. I had a wardrobe malfunction and while I was busy asking friends for help, Kali magically showed up with a container full of safety pins and immediately fixed my issue. I was able to enjoy the entire event without any issues. The bridal suite was set up so cute with a sweet note for my daughter and her girlfriends, along with some apple cider for them to toast with. Kali made sure we stayed on schedule for photos, our dances, and the toast speeches. She even set up my laptop for our video like a computer tech pro! She also made sure that my birthday girl, my husband and I actually ate by literally serving us our own food. She introduced us to Jaedon who took care of everything all night and made sure it ran smoothly. Our DJ Dustin was amazing from day one and very accommodating to our music needs. Our bartenders Drew and Omar were great and took wonderful care of our guests. At the end of the night, they handed us back all our unused items, along with everything that belonged to us and even some to-go food for my daughter, my husband and I - which I truly appreciated because I could go home and finally enjoy my meal. Overall, everyone working our event - from the servers, waiters, food handlers, and cleaning crew - were so friendly, helpful, and very professional. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect Sweet 16 celebration for our daughter. The following day, when I finally had a chance to go through all our belongings, I noticed every single item was there - from a small rubber band to a small paper clip. I was missing nothing. The only small issue was that my daughter's cake had her name misspelled right in the center, very noticeable. It was an easy fix to remove, but a few guests did notice it. My photographer caught it before taking pictures of the cake. This was more of the baker's issue, as we had communicated several times about the details and I had even sent them a picture of the cake with the correct spelling. Aside from that, I had a wonderful experience with everything and everyone. Thank you for making my daughter's day extra memorable and special!

Absolutely incredible. From the first time meeting with the coordinators and months later having…read morethe event Wedgewood was incredible. The attention to detail. The friendliness of the staff. The quality of the food and drinks. Sensational! My wife and I were treated with such respect. The event was coordinated so well that we had absolutely nothing to worry about. We didn't have to even get our food or drinks. We were asked if we needed anything so that we didn't have to do anything but see to our guests and the event. Also we were told that the waterfall they have on the golf course would make for beautiful pictures so we were given a golf cart to get to and from the waterfall. The coordinator was with us from start to finish. I could write more but I think you get the point that if you are planning an event and want to pay a reasonable amount of money for an outstanding experience this is the place to go. You simply can't find better quality at a fair price in Los Angeles.

My toddler loves playing at Pretend City. We bought a membership and visited often over the summer…read more(on weekdays). It's well maintained and kept clean in the morning. There were times staff kept putting back toys so quickly and frequently I was getting annoyed (in my head) because I had to keep getting boats and fish back out for him in the water area. I love that they switch out the sensory items in the art room throughout the month so it's a different experience each visit. Their Wonder Lab area with painting was sooo fun! It's too bad it was only seasonal. My son loves all of it - harvesting fruits and veggies in the farm, pushing his own cart in Trader Joe's, cooking in the restaurant, etc. It is truly a great, fun space for kids. Once, the CEO played in the construction area with him for a few minutes - that impressed me. They also regularly have special event days with dance and music demonstrations, author read alouds, etc. Members Only hour is the best time to visit (they open an hour early). Once 10:00 hits, the floodgates open and it's gets substantially more crowded. With all that said, we visited on a recent Sunday afternoon - never again! Every exhibit was in total disarray (every single toy on the floor and rarely even in the right zone), older kids zooming around on kid cars like scooters, a child climbing the fake fountain in the center and standing at the top (where were the parents?! No staff member present either...it was really dangerous). I've never seen Pretend City look like that before but if that's what it was like on my first visit it would scare me away! There's lots of parking but mostly in the back lot. The front lot gets full fast and many spots are reserved for other businesses. You can bring your own food/drinks to eat in their Cafe area or purchase some from vending machines. Wish they sold coffee... Again, amazing spot and 5/5 on weekday mornings. 1/5 on weekend afternoons.

The place is wonderful, filled with lots of hours of play and excitement but I definitely feel…read moreit's over priced.. if you have EBT or Wick then you can get in for $5 a person.. The man at the front desk has a ton of attitude so beware.. only reason why I left 3 stars.. he was extremely rude to me for not understanding something with the pricing.. The vending machines are expensive but it's pretty cool that you can bring your lunch. Definitely worth checking out .
