I played here 1/2 and 1/9 and the course overall is in good shape. The fairways are pretty well covered and the greens were in great shape. Green speed is medium and you wont get penalized if you are a heavy handed putter. For the price (I play mid-week) it is definitely worth it to get your golf fix. Typical round here will take about 4.5 hours. If you need to work on your game this is a good place..no real major hazards (think there is only water on the back only)..otherwise you are in play everywhere.

Saturday fivesome with a very early 6:30am tee time at Los Amigos this weekend. It was great to move so freely across the course but with five players and far too many ball searches, we still finished in just around four hours if not a little more.

The threat of rain lingered much of the day, but the clouds never broke and we even got some nice sunshine in doses. It turned out to be pretty fine golf weather. The course played its part as well by trying to keep up, but there were a few positives and negatives throughout the day.

The greens I actually found to be in quite nice shape on near every hole. They were surprisingly quick, held shots well and stayed predominantly true depending on any ball mark remnants. It helped being so early and cool that morning I'm sure. But no major complaints there at all.

The fairways were in pretty fair to good shape but some thin lies were out there to be had. Rough was pretty non-existent and mowed down to where every ball is ultimately findable, unless wet or OB. The bunkers had decent sand in them, but nowhere near as good as Los Amigos has had the bunkers before. The main gripe would be the mayhem of the tee boxes that were barely mowed and lacked any basic manicuring. Many were overgrown and had a few too many dirt patches. Not the best look.

Unfortunately the amenities at The Friends are either lacking or a trek to reach. There is no convenient snack/food option at the turn as the grill seems to never be open and the actual bar/grill is a decent walk from the 10th tee box. It is what it is. Carts are a bit beat up to be sure as well and there was no cart service to be seen all afternoon. However, after the round, stopping by the bar/grill is a good idea as it's nicely set up and has good food.

Keep expectations in check but you can always still have a good time at Los Amigos.

I played here 7/22/23 and its been years since I played here. LA is generally open and can't get in trouble in the front. The back has a a few holes with water. Fairways are in great shape and the greens were great also. As others have said perhaps the rain did the course well. The reviews are what the conditions are and overall I would rate the fairways an easy 7.5/10 and greens are about the same. Everythings was pretty lush and for the price well worth it.

Played here this past Saturday and was pleasantly surprised by the conditions. This course has definitely benefitted from all the rain earlier this year. We teed off about 15 minutes late and were expecting a slow round. POP ended up at 5 hours with 2 groups backed up on 5-6 holes.

At $48 to walk, $64 to ride, I am slowly coming to terms with this becoming the "normal" price for a muni course.

Overall, a decent experience. Just expect a 5 hour round on the weekends.

Sunday round with three friends at Los Amigos this weekend. We had a 12:12 start time and were all walking. Just to get the rough part out of the way early - we finished the 18th hole at around 5:20pm - you do the math. Many crammed tee boxes two or three groups deep.

In terms of conditions, the rains have done the fairways and rough a lot of good this week. Can't recall too many bad lies at all, but of course did see some damaged and dirt areas off on the sides of the fairways. Bunkers were in their usual good condition here, and the greens were mostly running nicely. Held shots well and stayed pretty true to their lines surprisingly.

The worst part of the Los Amigos experience was the tee boxes. They are quite beat up and a lot of times mostly dirt, alongside also not all being very even. It was always an adventure finding a decent spot to tee the ball. This needs improvement.

As earlier mentioned, POP was a bit of a nightmare and there was no cart service all afternoon anywhere on the course, but it was a beautiful day with the sun shining and the company was excellent so we still had a pretty great time.

Played Friday filling in the 4. Found the course in dry conditions so the fairways gave good roll out. Lies were questionable most of the round. Tee boxes on par 3's are in need of work. Traps were OK but could be better. Greens rolled well on all holes. But the big problem here is groups of 5. Many of these are walkers and it slows play tremendously. On # 3 we had 5 on the green, 2 groups of 5 and our group of 4 waiting. The price for Sr play is $22 and add $15.50 for a cart. $37.50 is not worth the price for the condition the course is in at present. The course gets over played but the conditions seem to constantly be less than optimal. I cannot recommend at present.

Sadly Los Amigos continues to disappoint in grand fashion. Played there on Sunday with three friends and the only thing that went well really was that the POP was only five hours and not longer. The greens are in terrible shape - bumpy, inconsistent and damaged in many cases.

The fairways are mostly thin with a few decent spots, but also large tracts of just dirt and nothingness. Awful. Rough is non-existent, tee boxes are mostly a disaster and the only saving grace is the good state of the bunkers. How often is that the case?

No cart service all day, POP was again decent but still five hours, and not much else to really say. I wish this place would get its s*!@ together because I've seen it in great shape many years ago and it's a shame not to see it like that again now.

Have played here for many many years, and it's always been one of my faves. Staff is always nice....green fees are decent. The course is run down now, sadly. I mean, it's playable, and there are some good spots throughout, but overall, it's taking a beating. Greens used to be excellent, but not so much, these days. Will I be back? Sure. Just wish these once awesome Muni's could keep up with the nicer courses in the area....
