I was lost as **** trying to find the course and hole 1 so I thought I would leave some navigation. There are no pads and there is no basket currently for hole 1. If you google lola valley, the park on the west side of beech daily pops up. The course is on the east side of beech daily. The course is in the valley between Lola dr and Pomona dr from around Garfield down to 5 mile. I think the best place to park is near the bridge at Garfield and Lola or Pomona. The basket for hole 2 is at the southwest corner of the bridge. If you walk west up Pomona, you will reverse hole 2 and hole 1. Hole 1 starts at the Intersection of Lennane and Pomona. There is no basket for hole 1. After hole 2, you walk across the bridge up to the pad (no cement) for hole 3. Hole 3 is throwing east into the valley at the southeast side of Garfield and Lola. The course is then easy to follow. Cross the over the bridge on 5 mile to get from hole 5 to 6. After hole 8, you cross over the bridge on Garfield and tee off for 9 from the southwest side of Garfield and Lola. There is definitely potential for the course to continue on after 9 and wrap back around the valley to hole 1. But for now, that's why I said it's best to park at Garfield and Lola/Pomona so you only have to walk back after hole 9 rather than walking all the way around or trying to climb over the river back to hole 1.
You got it. More of a practice course, for me. Or sometimes I'll play 3-8 three times and just skip 1, 2 and 9.
