Lakes at El Segundo

Los Angeles, CA · 2.9 mi away

Westchester Golf Course is a municipal course about two miles from the LAX terminals, designed in 1965. It plays as an 18-hole par 64 at 4,364 yards with a slope of 89, holding eight par 4s, one par 5 and nine par 3s. The course operated as a 15-hole facility for 15 years before a 2010 renovation returned it to 18 holes, adding three new holes on the back nine with different design and green character than the front. Those additions include a 515-yard par 5 and a pair of well bunkered holes. The signature hole has a large eucalyptus in the middle of the fairway that is home to a family of hawks. Greens are the course's reputation, and conditioning is consistent for a course that takes heavy municipal traffic. The driving range was renovated with 58 stalls, target greens and a range shop, and there is a short-game area for chipping, pitching and bunker work. The course is lit for night play and practice until about 10 p.m., one of very few full-length lighted options in Los Angeles. Pull carts, electric carts, rental sets and instruction are available.
