Woodley Lakes Golf Course

The youngest course in the City golf portfolio, Woodley Lakes opened in 1975. It was designed for all skill levels but with its wide fairways and large greens, it is ideal for beginner to intermediate golfers. At over 6,800 yards from the tips and nine acres of water hazards, experienced golfers will find plenty of challenge as well. This golf course is family friendly with the new addition of PGA Level 1 family tees on all 18 holes. With its well-manicured grass tee line, our driving range is one of the most desirable within the city.

Penmar Golf Course

Just blocks from Venice Beach, this executive length course is the perfect track to hone your short game skills. With six par 4s and three par 3s, the course will require the golfer to concentrate on accurate approach shots to score well here. A great walking course to enjoy. Penmar was rated “Best Nine Hole Golf Course” by Los Angeles Magazine!
