I usually take a trip out to Los Angeles in the winter time to play some golf and this is the course that I like to play . Was just there in November for a week . Plan on going again next February . As it says below this place has hosted 3 L.A. Opens back in the 1930's . The price is right and it's a great place to golf .

Griffith Park, Harding and Wilson Municipal Golf Courses (Los Angeles): Though golf made its debut in Griffith Park in 1914, today's facility dates to a 1923 expansion to 36 holes by the legendary designer George Thomas — a project that the philanthropic Thomas reportedly augmented from his own pocket when city funding ran short. The site of three late-1930s L.A. Opens, as well as the longtime home of 1961 PGA champion Jerry Barber, Griffith Park once ranked among the world's finest period municipal golf facilities. Today, after decades of ill-advised modifications (e.g., Harding course's now-removed "water bunkers") and the building of the Golden State Freeway, it remains among the most historic.

Of the top golf courses in Los Angeles, Griffith Park Golf Course is one of the better public golf courses. Located at 4730 Crystal Springs Drive in Los Angeles, this beautiful park offers two 18-hole golf courses in a glorious park setting. The course is laid out efficiently presenting a great enough challenge to the golfer. There is also a chipping area, and a great putting green. Green fees are reasonable, and parking is plentiful, however with it being a public course, getting tee times is a tad difficult. For further information about one of the top golf courses in Los Angeles call 310-663-2555.
