      When McDonald Douglas and Boeing were in Long Beach, the higher echelons in these companies used to schedule their lunches around their golf games.  Rumor has it that many ideas regarding plane safety, structure and the like were formulated over a round of golf at Lakewood Country Club!!!

A block west of Lakewood Blvd on Carson Street, Lakewood Golf Course is a regular 18-hole Par 72 championship course that features 11 acres of lakes with a 72.9 rating and 113 slope.  the facilities inclue a pro shop, a driving range, two putting greens, practice area as well as three room banquet facilities, a coffee shop and cocktail lounge.

This course was built in 1933 and has since been redesigned.  it is considered to be the second most difficult course in Long Bech.  it is currently managed by the American Golf Corporation. There are two on site pros available. To locate a map or check out the facilities, go to www.lakewood.americangolf.com.

      

If you work in Long Beach or Lakewood, you can access any of the seven golf courses in the area.  Living in Long Beach has its amenities.  Long Beach residents who are also golf fanatics manage to catch a round of golf  after work and it still make it home in time for dinner!
