Rowland Heights Golf Center — Attraction in Rowland Heights

This is a review of the driving range only. While this golf center does have other amenities, I do not use them.

I frequent this driving range in Rowland Heights a few times a year. I am not a good golfer by any stretch but I do enjoy trying to improve my game and at least just hit the ball straight. This range is very big and has multiple stations to use. It is two stories tall so you can usually find a place to play. It can however, get pretty busy during peak times but I have usually found a spot within the first 10 minutes. The driving range experience is what you would expect from other ranges. There are plenty of balls and it has not run empty yet, even on busy days. The staff is good about collecting the range balls and refilling the hopper. The artificial grass playing surface is in good condition. I have been to other ranges where they were worn down where the golfer stands but these look fairly new and are probably replaced regularly. At some stations, there are a few different tees you can use which is nice. Usually I bring my own or you have to search far and wide for someone not using the rubber tee you want. There is a chair for your convenience behind your playing area if you want to rest in between practice. If it is busy, one chair is all you get if you were looking to trade off with a friend in the same space. Smoking is allowed while you play so this is probably not the best place for kids. Kids should probably go to the second floor since there are fewer players. Ashtrays are available near each playing area. The place is very clean and the maintenance staff does a very thorough job, even with the bathrooms. The grounds are well kept and I did not see any trash on the floor. The putting greens are very nice although there is no change in patterns or elevation if you are looking to practice that part of your putting game. It is basically a large, flat green with a bunch of holes. There are two putting areas but one is always closed since they are tending to it. It is very nice and is usually not crowded. The place does serve snacks and drinks like milk teas but I have never tried them. There is usually only one person working at the front counter so service can be a little slow. There is a nice, tiny, shaded area with two tables if you wanted to sit and eat. A small golf shop is attached although I have never been inside it. The best part about the Rowland Heights Golf Center is the prices. It is average or slightly below average when buying a bucket of balls. A bucket of 100 for $8 and 130 for $10. The best deal is to purchase a card so that you do not have to go to the front desk to purchase a code for the balls. The card works like a debit card and does not expire. You can walk up to the ball dispenser, swipe, then select your bucket as opposed to going up front to purchase a code, then inputting the code into the dispenser. If you initially purchase a $200 card, they will add another $100 for a total of $300 on the card. I have been using the same card for about 3 years now since I only go to the range about 4 times a year. All in all this is one of the better driving ranges; lots of stations, well kept, and clean. A great place to go to practice your game or let...

A great place for golfers to sharpen up on the game, they have a putting green , but I noticed it was not open. and then there is a 200yrd driving range which is a two deck structure with a great view of the mountains. And smoking is allowed.. You must have a face mask for entry to this golf center.. clean environment and a friendly atmosphere.. always full is their golf ball machine. From what I hear is other golf centers you would pay alot more to get what you would pay for here for golf balls.. they have bathrooms well maintained. Also a cafe which sells hot dogs ,fries several green tea beverages.. coffee is great and other goodies for your time here taking some good swings with your driver. Mornings are not as crowded as it is in the early evening.. overall if your a golfer trying to improve on your swings or whatever needs tinkering to get your game on "WELL" this place is a great...

The ball machines do not give out the correct amount of golf balls per what it is stated on the payment. It is taking anything from 7 to 10 % off what you pay for. I noticed this and he informed the place. They knew about it but continue to not fix the issues. Two weeks later, I went back and the machine is still providing less balls than what I paid for. I told them about it again, but they simply said ok. I remembered an India said, if you take a penny from each customer, by the end of the year, you will make some good money. This is 7 to 10 %, and it is wrong. It is the principles and you don’t cheat your customers. They should sue this place...
