Premium Par-3 Golf in the Heart of Long Beach

Heartwell Golf Course, established in 1958 and designed by William F. Bell, offers a premium 18-hole, par-54 experience in the heart of Long Beach. Spanning 2,143 yards, the course is known for its challenging yet enjoyable play, suitable for golfers of all skill levels. Players will find scenic, tree-lined fairways and grass tee boxes, with the signature 13th hole serving as a highlight of the back nine. Strategic water hazards on holes 14, 15 and 18 further add to the precision required during the round.

The course is rich in history, famous as the location where a young Tiger Woods made his first hole-in-one. Its well-maintained grounds, plentiful trees, and resident geese provide a peaceful, natural charm. A standout feature is its evening accessibility; with full lighting on both the range and the course, Heartwell is a premier destination for night golf in Southern California.

Love this place

“Love this place. It’s a great place for beginners, you won’t have to use your driver unless you want to use it on the driving range. They sanitize the carts in between uses which is good to see. Have also had a breakfast burrito from the little diner inside that was scrumptious.”

– Jay S.

My favorite place to play in Long Beach

“This is by far my favorite place to play in Long Beach. The course is so well kept and the staff are amazing and so kind and helpful. The manager Eric and assistant manager Isiah are great. Kim, the lady that is there mostly on the weekends is my favorite. She is so helpful and nice and makes every experience at Heartwell amazing. This place is great and I’ll be coming back as long as I live in Long Beach. Thank you Eric, Isiah, Kim and the rest of the great staff.”

Night golf is a great deal!

“Small, but fun and challenging course, 18-hole par-3. Well maintained. Can get busy and slow on weekends. Short wait for driving range on evenings and weekends. Night golf is a great deal!”

– Cheyne S.

Nice putting green and a range to warm up.

“Good value to practice a variety of par 3’s. They are pretty narrow with lots of trees so if you don’t hit straight, it’ll cost you! There’s a nice putting green and a range to warm up.”

– Heather M.

Nice driving range

“Beautiful par 3 golf course with 18 holes. Great shape. Lots of trees, so many that from many angles it looks like you are out of the city and are somewhere very verdant. Nice driving range and the clubhouse and restaurant are very much Mid-Century Modern. Since 1958. Very much an Eisenhower era classic.”

– Pat A.

The staff is very friendly

“My wife and I love Heartwell golf course. It starts at the check-in desk with happy smiling and helpful staff and a very well kept Golf Course with many challenges for the short-game. Nothing better after a round of golf in the restaurant at the course. The staff is very friendly and are constantly checking to make sure you have everything you need. Thank you for the great experience and we will keep going back to play!”

– Daniel T.

Great place to practice your short game

“Great place to practice your short game. I played on a Sunday morning and the price was under $20 and the pace was better than i expected. Finished in a little over 2 hours playing 18 and waiting a little. I would recommend for anyone looking to improve short game, par 3s, approaches and have a good time. Met some great people too..”
