Top Five Indoor Golf Facilities in SoCal

By: Leslie Hughes - Jan 18, 2022

The temperatures here in Southern California are remaining much colder than we’d like them to and the sun is setting before many of us are done with work. This presents quite the challenge when you’re looking to get some time in on the course. Sure, weekends are an option, but tee sheets fill up quickly.

We have a solution for you: indoor golf facilities. Though they aren’t quite the same as the real deal, they still present a great opportunity to polish your game. If you’re ready to take your game indoors until the outdoors become a bit more golf-friendly, here are the best indoor golf facilities to check out in SoCal. Some facilities even provide instruction to improve your game for the next time you hit off an actual tee box.

1. Urban Golf Performance | Santa Monica, West Los Angeles, and Costa Mesa

Since 2013, Urban Golf Performance has focused on its mission to show that golf is more than just a sport. It is a way to improve mental health, inspire communities, enjoy nature, get playful, and provide a greater sense of purpose. Its various locations across Southern California create opportunities for people to experience golf performance in a unique way that helps them improve their skills while also deepening their love for the game.

2. Aroma Golf Center | Los Angeles

Though this one is semi-indoor, we are including it on the list because it’s the largest semi-indoor range in the city. Here you have 150 yards to practice your best swings at a state-of-the-art golf range. Included in the experience are a computer-aided swing monitoring device and a fully automated tee-up system.

3. GOLFTEC | Various Locations across SoCal

For those looking to get quality lessons to improve their swing for when the course calls, head to GOLFTEC. Some of the best coaches in golf are here to provide top-notch lessons and swing evaluations as well as club fittings. Using the latest technology in golf, GOLFTEC helps you get fit for clubs that will take your game to new heights.

4. Olympic Golf Zone | Buena Park

Voted the number one golf simulator by Golf Digest, Olympic Golf Zone is the place to go during those colder winter months to keep your golf swing hot. It features swing plates that automatically adjust to course slopes as well as two high-speed cameras that almost create the atmosphere of a real golf course. You can even choose from a variety of games to put some of the fun back into the game of golf. What we really love about Olympic Golf Zone is that you can replay your swings at home, too, so you can get extra time to note where you need to do some work.

5. Topgolf Swing Suite | Park Hyatt Aviara

For a unique and luxurious indoor golf facility experience, be sure to check out the Topgolf Swing Suite at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort. This suite sits inside the Command Post at the resort and provides the ideal place for a group to enjoy the fun parts of golf along with some great food and drinks. You can rent out the simulator bays together or individually to take advantage of the digital screens and get your game on.

These are just a handful of our favorite indoor golf facilities in Southern California – there are many more. Regardless of what is going on outside, you can keep your game strong, and make it even stronger by bringing your swings indoors to keep your game consistent.
