Golf Course was perfect condition, weather great, but L.A. smog is something I can't get used to. The Monterey Peninsula has fog and can be cold at times, how ever at least the air is breatheable 365 days a year. If you put the Los AngelesCountry Club South Course in Pebble Beach It would rank in top 5 courses in the U.S.A. My father was born ...

nice place but thats it
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/10/08
my grandparents are members as were my great-grandparents, and although the course and clubhouse are beautiful, its full of snobs. Not only is membership only extended to wasps, but i have been going there a few times every year for my whole life and the most diversity ive seen is a catholic priest playing golf.

Like no other golf course

I read a number of the already-posted reviews and have to agree with them in varying degrees - except the frog one; not sure where that came from??!!
My father has been a member for the last 40 years and his father before that. I learned to play golf there as a kid in the early 70's and recently played with my father there on the South ...

Don't Miss This Experience!!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/14/07
Well, here's the thing. Great food. I mean, really great food, old waspy white comfort food - creamed chipped beef, bernaise, soft, over-cooked vegetables... but nary a black person, Asian or Latino in the whole place (with the exception of the help). The LACC is a curiosity (BTW, my family are members) - because it's one of those last ...

I am fortunate enough to be the cousin of a long standing member at L.A.C.C. and from time to time I am invited to play at this most wonderful of places. Not only does L.A.C.C. give you two great historic golf courses it also puts you in a frame of mind to play golf and forget the outside world. I have never been more at peace with myself or my ...

Of all the places in the world I have traveled and been fortunate enough to play golf, the LACC would rate in my top 10. The best!

not a tourist attraction
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/11/06
This is a golf course. Your invited by a friend, you pay big bucks and you play. That hardly qualifies for anything other than a good day of golf.

You are not welcome here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/19/06
The L.A. Country Club is famous for being the only place to refuse an invitation to host the U.S. Open. (Ever wonder why the U.S. Open is never played in Southern California?)
Also not welcome are celebrities, certain semitic types, etc. You get the picture.
But if you are a rich, old-moneyed WASP, this place is heaven.

This is a private club
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/24/05
This is a California landmark, open to members and their guests only. It is one of the best private golf clubs in the United States, offering two extraordinary courses, wonderful cuisine, and lovely old world atmosphere.
