WESTCHESTER GOLF COURSE

 

LOS ANGELES REGION

Public: 15 hole - cost: $12 - $21

6900 West Manchester Avenue, Westchester, CA 90045

Tel: (310) 649-9166  

 

Designed by unknown. If you are about to tee off on the 16th, run like crazy, because you are probably in the middle of the street. Winchester lost three holes to airport construction, but has still thrived as a 15-hole, nightlit, executive course. From west Los Angeles (about eight miles south to the course): Take the San Diego Freeway (I-405) south, exit Manchester Avenue, and go west about three miles. With Ocean Trails completing three more holes, Westchester will become the best 15-hole course in California.

INLAND EMPIRE REGION                     

Members only: 18 hole

1800 Carbon Canyon Road, Chino Hills, CA 91709

Tel: (714) 528-6400

 

Designed by David Rainville, Harry Rainville. Located in Carbon Canyon, the front nine is tight and changes elevation constantly. The back nine is more forgiving. From downtown Los Angeles (about 34 miles east to the course): Take I-10 east to Highway 71 south. Take the Chino Hills Parkway and turn right. Turn left on Carbon Canyon Road/142. The club is on the right.
