Carroll Park Golf Course
"cheap"
This is a decent golf course and for the money you cant beat it. The grass is alright and the greens may vary and there are water filled bumps with some small holes. The main problem is location but besides that it is a nice course.

"Short but Tough"
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!

"Woodland Hills"
Not a bad course considering its location and market. Bent greens are some of the best I've played, and putting them are as true as carpet. Fairways are nice, but work is needed in and around the fairway rough. There are no signs from finishing green to the next tee. This was extremely confusing after #1 (There are three tee boxes within 40 feet of #1 green.), so pay close attention to your course layout map on your scorecard. The laid-back atmosphere was extremely nice. There was little to no pressure from anyone, and everyone I meet was very nice and courteous. Overall I give the course a 4 out of 5, and the hospitality a 5 out of 5. I also can say this course will challenge you, so carry every club in your bag.
