Played this morning. Customer service in shop was great. That about ends it. Late teeing off as no starter. First tee looks like a grocery line waiting to check out. A long line. Waited on every hole until the 4th and then a backup again on 8. No marshal was on the course. To many 5's walking and too many playing from the tips who should not be. For God's sake move up one or even 2 tee boxes there is nothing wrong with that. You don't have to play every hole up, just the ones you know you cannot reach anymore. Leave the ego in the parking lot. Between # 1 green and # 2 tee it is a mess from construction behind # 2 tee box. Course conditions are not good but not awful. Tee boxes were playable but shaggy. Fairways have coverage but they are not lush, but they are firm and do provide some roll out. Traps are playable but no one knows how to use a rake. Greens were the best part of the course. In good shape chipping/putting fine and holding shots. It's a golf course that gets a LOT of play and needs some order on the first tee and a marshal on the course. It's a nice layout and fun to play but not when its 5 or more hours (I quit after 13th hole). And I think they need to do away with 5's or make them ride. There is no reason that everytime one plays here POP sucks. Time and time again I see the same thing said by others about their round at this course. I am a Sr golfer and if I move around a golf course like some of these Sr's do my golfing days are over. I have more respect for the game of golf than to go out and embarass myself like some of these men/women do and ruin the day for others. That's my personal opinion OK don't take exception to it.

Mattias and I decided late on Friday morning to play and looked online and found a nice 1:52 tee time at Los Amigos. Please note that time. We arrived early, warmed up on the somewhat depressing driving range, and then made our way to the putting area to await our turn to tee off.

From the first looks of it we could tell it was not going to go well. At first they told us that they were about fifteen minutes behind, but we finally teed off (along with two singles) at around 2:20pm. From then on and for the rest of the round it was an utter disaster with no marshals and a 2-3 group backup on every single hole for the rest of the round. Usually things clear up after the third or fourth hole here, but not today.

By the time we putted out on 18 to finish the round, the clock read 8:12pm. Read that again. We literally JUST made it before it started getting too dark. With a 1:52pm tee time. Absolutely and ridiculously unacceptable. It's just mind-boggling how poorly the day was organized by the staff there. Unbelievable.

Course was also not that great if we're being honest. Greens were a bit bumpy and slow with some dead areas, the fairways are 'okay' at best, while the rough is fine and the bunkers were a little on the lame side. You would think that maybe the tee boxes were the course's saving grace, but alas - no. They were thin, beat up and all over the place.

I will always keep returning to Los Amigos as it's almost always a good value round and while it won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon, it usually provides a 'good enough' golf experience for its patrons. That was absolutely NOT the case this week. Very disappointing.

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.
