not that bad, Aug 10, 2004

reviewer: Andrew DeGothseir from Upper Darby, PA

This course is not that bad, i played here for a junior tournament. It kind of reminded me of Paxon Hollow Country Club in Marple Newtown, Pa.

Short but Tough, Feb 15, 2004

reviewer: Al Kuchler from Philadelphia, PA

I've been playing this course since I was 10 yrs old and have only parred it once. I have my only hole-in-one on the 7th hole which is a tough 203 yd par three. I have had many eagles on the par fives but always struggle with the tough par fours. It is a challenge and will probably always remain that way. Tight throughout the course layout. I love playing here!

Ponderosa Pines Golf Course
"Sweet Little Nine-Holer!"
I have enjoyed this course for over 10 years. It seems to be a well-kept secret, however. The owner of the course and his wife are the finest folks you will ever meet. Although the course is short, it is demanding. You must place your shots very well in order to shoot a good round. Stop by and say hello to the nice folks that own and run the course.

"short but challenging"
while the course is very short..there are a few holes that require good ball placement or you will end up in the water..hole #2;#6;#11;#12 and #14.....good for the short game as well and for the price you can't beat it; however depending on when you go play can be sometimes very slow.

"Nice course but difficult to get on........"
This is a great course, provided you can get on it. Always packed, best course in the area by far....I played here once and I am a resident, that shows you how hard it is to get a tee time here, used to be they only wanted non-residents because they pay more to play, (residents get a great discounted rate)...bad management idea there, of course residents complained and alot has changed....if you get the chance to play here by all means do it...you wont regret it...

"Golf at your own pace in LA on a Sunday morning"
I had a wonderful time golfing on this course, the practice facility is not much to write home about but the course and the service was awesome, we were a threesome and got around the course in under 5 hours, we tee'd off at 8:30a and were done by 1:00p, we actually had time to re put the greens several times after every hole and we only waited twice the entire morning, it was wonderful, we are not the greatest golfers either, we were all in the 90's. It was just a pleasure to go to a course and be treated so nice and have such a fun round of golf, thanks.
