Meadowlark Golf Club in Huntington Beach is a player-friendly layout that is a popular choice amongst locals. Like most classically designed layouts, the course is short and tight but that also makes it easily walkable. The pin placements on the greens can be tricky and there are also some challenging water hazards that come into play on several holes. The golf course will test your short game skills but there are wide, player-friendly fairways that balance the trickier elements. Beware, though, numerous trees on the golf course make many of the tee shots tight and narrow. It is not an overly difficult layout but it is an enjoyable round that players of any skill level will enjoy. Meadowlark also offers affordable rates that make it doubly appealing.

Tricky greens

Fun course to play as usual. This time we waited a month or so after greens were punched to see the difference and oh man did they run fast and tricky all day. Good luck to everyone on the 12th green haha.

Meadowlark Golf Club

My husband loves playing Meadowlark in Huntington Beach. It had some very interesting holes. Got a great deal on Tee Off and we golfed with a friend. The staff is always friendly and the pace of play can sometimes be slow, but not when we played. Hope to play there more often.

Water and Hills

This course is always fun to play. Fairways are forgiving with a few tee boxes that you have to avoid the water. Hills and ponds add the need to approach this course with a strategic mindset. Played right after the greens were punched, which isn't ideal but was still a great time.

Great Friday golf

My Round started with a super friendly greeting by the staff in the pro shop. My check-in felt like a VIP experience. Because the greens had recently been plugged, the starter gave me and my playing partner a pair of drink coupons for our troubles. Pace of play was good and the course, besides the greens was in great shape. I had a fantastic day of golf and look forward to Playing here again soon!

Another great day

Tee off on time
Pace of play EXCELLENT. Finished in 3:45 hrs
Greens very good but fast. Even when wet in the morning.
Forgiving course but many challenges throughout. Lot's of difficult par 3s.
Fairways improved over last month due to the rain.
Water hazards can be difficult.

Really rough course

The course is really rough. Terrible fairways and green surrounds, and bunkers They need to aireate the fairways. The staff at the course are great… the course is over used and under maintained. Won’t be back
