Been coming to this range for almost 20 years. Great local place to hit balls. Nice little 9 hole. Management is horrible! They close for no reason with no notice.

This course is a Gem. Its a great course. Ive been going to the course since 2008 and. Been a member for 3+ years and the price for what you get is great. James is a great guy. I have great conversations with him every Saturday morning. The grounds keepers do their job right. The environment is awesome even though your in between the street and apartments. None the less, try the course out. If you dont like it, I didnt tell the truth. On a lighter note. I got a hole in one on a on a 70 yrd par 3 on hole six. Enjoy I know you will. The membership is the way to go.

Only course I’ve ever played that runs the sprinklers with players on every hole.

Other than the large bucket of balls for the grass costing $18, it was fun. They could start getting rid of the old range balls, and working in some newer balls. I dont square up every shot, but the ones I do hit pure, it would be nice if the ball would respond. The place was hoping yesterday. We had to circle the parking a few times before someone left and we were able to hit some balls. All in all, the facility was in pretty good shape, and the employees very helpful and nice.

This facility is very good. It has ample room for many golfers. Very helpful and friendly staff. Only problem is in rainy weather the facilities are shut down for days or weeks. They need to grade and put in drains to get the water off the site. It needs to be engineered properly.

If youre looking to hit a bucket of balls, this is as good a spot as any! Reasonably priced and plenty of lanes. Great place to take a newcomer to golf to learn the fundamentals.

A decent place for a quick practice drive and a place to kill time. The range field is not the best but the price is reasonable and people there are nice. Will definitely come back more often and recommend

We have been playing off & on for five years. This is a great place for us. The staff is VERY friendly and professional. We love this golf course.

This is a cool course. You dont need your driver, the holes arent very long.

Review №10

This is a fun place and spend some time playing golf or just hitting some golf balls at the range. It does not cost much to come here at practice chipping or putting on the practice greens. You can hit balls off the mats or hit off the grass. It is a fun little course that you can bring your child and spend a few hours bonding with them. You are creating good memories for your childs entire life time when you spend time having fun with them.

Great memories here teaching my daughter to play golf. Very inexpensive to play the course and use the practice facilities. People are polite both on and off the course. A great relaxed environment to get your kids started.

What more can you ask for? Perfect setting for improving your stroke. I really enjoy the spacing and automated ball machine. Very convenient to get to, and rarely “too crowded”. Just a nice environment to hit some balls!

Review №14

Such a fun and well designed 9 hole. Good hole locations make it challenging. The lights are really good for night golf. The greens here are nice as well. Always in good shape and rolls true. My favorite for a quick nine after work.

Review №15

This is a good place to practice that short game. Easy to get on. No stress. Everyone on the course is light hearted and just want to enjoy a day hitting balls. Come early and hit the driving range as well.

Jo
Review №16

Love coming here. Lots of hitting bays. Join the membership for $32/month. Definitely worth it just for the driving range. If you go 3x/month you are already ahead. Open early and closes late. Great place to practice.

Review №17

Only used driving range, nice double level.

Review №18

As a beginner this driving range is so relaxed and unassuming! Did not feel intimidated at all. Lower driving range is in the shade which is fantastic Driving range and course with no frills and affordable

Sa

Good practice facility and easy 9 hole to boot. Recommended for beginners and anyone who wants short game practice

Its nice and small.

Great little 9 hole 3 par

Da
Review №22

Its a decent place to hone your golf swing. I was there to help a friend learn the game. A large bucket of balls is neither cheap or expensive. I havent played that course yet, but heard that its a good practice course. The green fees are reasonable enough. Once I play the course, I will provide input. Until then...

Good place for playing golf

Classic, disc, and foot golf on these 9 holes, plus a decent range to warm up.

Ri
Review №27

Love this place. Love the snack bar. They had great hotdogs. And big selection of items! Will have a game there any day! Just tell them I sent you!

De
Review №28

Definitely not worth the price even as a member. Its an extremely short course. The facility needs to put more work in maintaining their course. The past few times Ive gone there have been dead animals on the greens! And if you are planning on spending to much money to golf/disc golf, call in your tee time. Unless you intend to wait for 3 useless hours. Ive been coming here for a long time and its just disappointing.

Gl
Review №29

3.5 stars - staff for the most part are courteous and helpful. The range needs tlc and putting in a new drainage system is not the answer. Grass needs to be planted so that when it does rain the range is not closed for 3 to 5 days. The little executive course is in good shape . The short game practice area needs to be reseeded and sand added to the bunkers

Cu
Review №30

They need to figure out how to drain the range when it rains. Closes too often due to weather.Edit:Its been dry, no rain so everything is up and running.The greens are in nice shape in the course.

Ky
Review №31

Great little place to bring the inexperienced for some practice, or just to have a beer and shoot the breeze with the boys.Not for anyone seeking quality. Great place for young children to learn the game.

Ja
Review №32

Nice little local practice facility and great for a quick nine holes to practice your short game. Dont overlook their pitching and bunker practice areas next to the public putting green. Those are excellent for working on your scoring strokes.

Lo
Review №33

I guess its good for golf? Came for the disc golf; it was not worth the money. The course is clearly not designed for it, and they dont even have an accurate map

Er
Review №34

This place is tons of hitting days and they’re driving range they also have a nice chipping area and putting practice green I’ve been here a few times later in the day because it’s late at night and you can still hit later in the evening they also have a par three course that’s under lights but it’s kind of difficult to hit at night so I wouldn’t really recommend it unless you’re just going to go for round

Ro
Review №35

$3 more to hit your bucket off of real grass...sold! Plenty of stalls in the 2 story matted range

Br
Review №36

The driving range is closed when its wet as water collects there. For a quick 9 holes its okay, but theres definitely crab grass and other issues that prevent really good play. Its cheap though.

In
Review №37

The convenience of the range is Five but the limited abilities to use my driver on the artificial turf took the joy of the range.So I used my irons and somewhat enjoyed it but upon leaving I realized there is a grass section at a higher cost of course but is available plus chip and putting courses at of course a price so be aware what your walking into.

Bi
Review №38

I love that place I can hit my Irons a lot better

Great practice facility!

Some good chipping and putting practice area, as well as a good driving range. The course is not bad for a executive 9 hole.

Review №52

Cheap prices and dead grass. But hey, youre here to practice your swing. Also, you will need to bring your own rubber tee, as they do not provide them on the mats section. They do sell them in the shop on site.

Fun place great location!

Review №55

I played the footgolf version of the course and what I can say was the course was ok. The course had some holes in which the hole was above the ground making it impossible to make without a chip as well as some mole hills but some holes were descent and quite fun. I would have given this a 4 star but they closed the store where you give back the balls and have your DRIVERS LISCENSE. Without any notice as well. Now my father doesn’t have his drivers liscense due to the store closing without any notification they were going to do so. Very disappointing.

Very well maintained, and clean

Review №57

Great practice course and well kept. Friendly staff and players. We played the course twice in about two hours. Fun option to hitting at a range or for a fun round to work on your short game.

Mi
Review №58

Worst quality golf course Ive been to. Poor location. Slow customer service. I dont feel they treat minorities fairly. I stepped in there with a tee time reservation and they dont even make eye contact.

Friendly staff and knowledgeable instructors. The people that go here are laid back as well. Nobody seemed to mind that I sliced almost every ball I hit haha.

The range is closed on Tuesday till noon.You guys should make it clear on your business hours on Google and others.

Review №63

This course is ran down. Good for a quick 9. Usually not crowded. Fairly priced. Nothing special about the course or the greens.

Er
Review №64

Range balls are low compression marshmallows, your forced to hit of mats, unless you want to shell out $14 to hit of grass. Cost $$ to use the short game area. On a positive note, the putting green is free

The course isnt the nicest. But its a fun short course to shoot a round of nine with friends.

This review is for their foot golf course.Just played at Lake Forest Golf & Practice Center’s new FootGolf course. 9 holes that follow some (not all) of the golf holes. You can bring your own ball or rent one for $5. Had a great time! A couple tips: it’s a walking course, so be prepared to walk. On the hole that has lakes, position someone near the edge to save any balls that might land in the water! The staff can retrieve them (with pool nets!), but it’s easier to just catch them before they go in. No tee time restrictions is a positive compared to other foot golf courses that limit when foot golfers can play. Its great for experienced soccer players or those out for the first time. Will return.

Place is cheap, in the right way. They just redid the grass range so its level and smooth now. Otherwise the prices are very reasonable and its great company that comes here.

Ri
Review №71

Good place to go hit some balls and practice putting. There is a 9 hole pitch and putt as well where all you need is 6 iron (for maybe 2 holes) other than that bring pitching wedge or sandwedge and putter

Al
Review №72

Great place to work on your game. They have very good instructors, too.

Ga
Review №73

Great course for beginniners! Short holes and patchy grass but overall great experience.

Sh
Review №74

The only reason why you should go here is if you are not planning on buying anything except a basket of balls.The pros are that you can drink and smoke.The cons are that it is not really a place to go if you are serious about golf.This would be the kind of place that you would go to to mess around with your friends not hone in on your skills.All food and beverages are overpriced so I would highly recommend bringing your own.

Driving range is OK. A little ragged. The Grass Tees Are more dirt than grass. Putting green is kept up pretty well.

Review №77

Distance control range balls with many worn out create bad practice habits if you try to compensate by swinging harder etc. Employees however are cordial.

Review №89

7th time I have stopped by to get balls for the Players Club membership over two months and still no balls. $30 bucks a month for nothing they already took $60 and charged me for the third month now. $90 for no buckets of balls. Complete garbage. Asked if they can help out with any refund and they said its not their business to do that. Absolute garbage.

Review №90

If I could rate a 0 I would... Who charges for disk golf? I dont need your disks, I have my own... Are you suggesting I pay for you to Caddy? My mind is blown on how you expect to profit from nothing... I have disk golf for the past 15 years and never once have I heard of paying, unless its entrance into competition my dreams are crushed #profitmongers #thieves

Pretty cool range only thing thats kind of iffy is that the back of the range is touching Jeronimo so if your a heavy hitter beware...

Ok but you now have to buy the plastic tee when using the driving range. WEAK! I will not be back unless I am desperate to hit balls.
