Bixby Village Golf Course, Long Beach

Bixby Village Golf Course is where compact fairways and low-stakes rhythm turn a quick round into something quietly restorative.

Located at 6180 Bixby Village Drive in Long Beach, California near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Loynes Drive, this 9-hole, par-3 course sits tucked between residential streets and the edge of the CSULB campus. It's short by design, approachable, walkable, and built for iron play. The fairways roll gently, greens are modest but honest, and the entire layout can be completed in under two hours. It's golf stripped to fundamentals: distance control, clean contact, and patience.

Bixby Village Golf Course operates as one of Long Beach's most accessible public courses, particularly for beginners, juniors, and players sharpening short-game precision.

Because every hole is a par 3, club selection becomes the central decision, wind, yardage, and elevation shifts matter more than brute force. The course is walking-friendly, and you'll often see solo players looping through nine with just a handful of clubs. Its proximity to Cal State Long Beach and surrounding residential neighborhoods keeps it embedded in daily life. There are no dramatic water carries or stadium-style hazards here. Just turf, sky, and repetition.

Treat this as a reset round.

Book a morning tee time when the air is still and the pace is unhurried, or slide in for an afternoon nine before dinner along Pacific Coast Highway. Bring a half set and focus on tempo. After the round, head toward the nearby campus paths or continue west toward the coast for sunset. Not every course is built to impress. Some are built to practice, and that's where the satisfaction lives.
