Well, I have played here twice now, and certainly it is a pleasing to the eye course, can be difficult too. But with that said I think it is a bit overpriced as relates to the golf itself.

Lots of blind shots, carrys, and shots that are misplaced by 10 yards can mean big numbers.

My biggest complaint is that there is a lot of 380 some yard holes, or so it seems - I felt I teed up the the ball and then hit 7 iron into every green.

Nice course, just really wonder if it was worth 75 bucks on a friday, especially since Trilogy or SCPGA are cheaper and in the same general area.

I agree with everything the last poster said. 100%. Slow play was rampant. It was a Saturday, so - one does not expect to race around the track in 3.5 hours....but this particular day (3/6) it was ... Continue »

I agree with everything the last poster said. 100%. Slow play was rampant. It was a Saturday, so - one does not expect to race around the track in 3.5 hours....but this particular day (3/6) it was bordering on the absurd!! To put it simply: Our starting time was 10:00 A.M. - and we didn't get off the first tee intil almost 11:00!! I guess it picked up "a little" after #12 or 13 - but, please!!! We didn't get finished until 4:05 P.M. - five hours and five minutes. That's a long day, folks!! I picked a heck of a year to give up "cussing on the golf course" for Lent!!

The greens were .... well..... I'd say just a wee bit "shaggy" - and they are in desperate need of a mowing and a good rolling. I'm sure that the drilling and sanding due later this month will eventually help the situation. But as for now.....give each putt a good ride or you will come up short all day long!

That being said: What a nice place!! Not an easy track, (I imagine from the tips that it can be a brutal golf experience for all but the serious single-digit handicapper out there!) kind of a funky, hilly layout, but - really enjoyable!! Oak Quarry is now officially on my short-list of places to play in my regular rotation !! Great conditions, (other than the slow greens), great staff (they kept it moving as best they could....it was a case of "T.M.G." - too many golfers!) - and not too far of a drive from Pasadena. It may even be closer than Goose Creek, miles and time-wise.

With Hidden Valley going the way of the dinosaur, The Quarry is a hot-ticket item!!

On the "Cheeseburger" scale.....this one gets four big gold stars !!

Pace of play on the front was painfully slow, but picked up nicely on the back. Greens were shaggy and slow. Spoke with a marshall that said they were having some problems and that in about 3 weeks they should be perfect, just in time to for aeration. Other than the greens, course is in excellent shape.

The course was in much better condition than I had expected given all the recent rainfall. The greens were theslowest I've ever seen them. I suspect they just needed to be cut? Just one of my favorit... Continue »

Had a great time. Staff very friendly and helpful. Was a little windy, but the course was very good and challenging.

I had to play this course after all I have heard about it. It met all my expectations except for the quality of the greens. They were very soft and torn up. Every other aspect of the course, from the layout and scenery, to the fairways, sand and tee boxes, deserves the praise they regularly receive on this site. I will definitely return.

Great course, definitely worth playing again. Course was in excellent shape, expecially considering it was January. Played with some guys from NY.. they were astounded we have golf like this in SoCa... Continue »

Great course, definitely worth playing again. Course was in excellent shape, expecially considering it was January. Played with some guys from NY.. they were astounded we have golf like this in SoCal during the winter. Playing time was affected because there was NOBODY in front of us and NOBODY behind us.

This is a great track- usually lush conditions. But it is in the worst shape I've seen (1/25).
Lots of bare spots- greens are in terrible condition.

Played on 1/23 and was very dissapointed with the condition of the greens. They held shots pretty well, but they were very thin, bumpy and inconsistant. The fairways and tee boxes were very good as well as the staff. The layout of the course is really fun and a gem to play...just give it a couple more weeks.
