This course is another example of a course that was designed to supplement driving range operations and not to stand alone. While overall the course was in good condition (with the exception of the carpeting which showed a lot of wear) and the gentlemen running the course was very nice, the course lacked anything that would make it unique or difficult. The holes were all pretty much in the same pattern (a dogleg, with maybe a slope and a wide, oval end) and there wasn’t a hole on the course that didn’t allow you a very good chance at a two. This is also shown by the par, which is a mere 38, with only two par threes on the entire course. The back nine did have a couple obstacles, but they didn’t add much and they showed some significant wear. The name of the course is also a bit confusing as there was hardly anything in the course that would make one think of Hollywood. What the course did have was some interesting animals painted on the walls and walkways. The price was also a little steep for the type of course and condition it was in. A course such as this one is much more suited for a price tag around $4. This is a course that we don’t recommend you run out and play, although it might be worth stopping by if you’re at the driving range anyway or are waiting for the bus (the station is right next door) and don’t mind spending the $6 on a less than superior course.
