Hole 9 -151 yards

The course is nicely laid out and has a fun course design. There is water in the middle of the course which affects holes 2, 8 and 9. The show piece of the course is hole 9 which is a par 3 almost surrounded by water. On the course are two par 4’s at 272 and 316 yards respectively. Every hole has bunkers and trees in play which add to the challenge of the course.

The course condition is good, but not excellent. When we played several of the tee boxes were closed for maintenance. As you can see on some of the pictures and videos below of the various holes there is some work needed on the grass. The greens are large and run well. They are in good condition with not a lot of pitch marks and divots associated with many of the par 3 and executive courses. The greens are those with the aeration holes in. Not my favorite, but I guess it works. 

Play was kind of slow. We started right on our start time, but we were behind a pair who were really slow. Every hole they were setting up cameras to record their swings and it just led to a back up. By the time we has gotten to hole 5 play had got a lot quicker.

Overall this was an enjoyable course to play. Plenty of variation and challenges. I would put it in the top 5 of courses in the LA and Orange County area.

Richie says… “Really nicely designed course. It has it all – sand, water, par 4’s. If you have a couple of hours spare and do not want to play an 18 hole (par 72) golf course I would recommend Iron-Wood.”

Chris says… “Course was ok. It is far, but if I was in the area I would play it again. But otherwise I wouldn’t. If you live around there good course, but it is a little expensive. If you don’t live around there I would say it is not worth the drive.”
