Lincoln Country Club has a scenic landscape of hardwood forests and meandering creeks. Although it might not seem like anything special on first glance, the golf course is actually one of the area's hidden gems. The traditional design has a surprisingly formidable test. The challenging golf course has a front nine with tree-lined fairways and small greens that demand accuracy. While the back nine is more open, it's no less challenging. Shot placement will still be an important factor when maneuvering the greens. Ponds and creeks come into play throughout and there are strategically placed bunkers lurking along many of the greensides. The Lincoln Country Club golf course finishes with a tough par 4 that demands an accurate tee shot with out-of-bounds on the right and a creek on the left. Don't underestimate the undulating green, it has seen many three-putts in its time.

Course in good condition

The front nine greens were being aerated, so we played the back nine twice. Greens are in good condition but a little slow. They hold the approach shot well. Fairways are in good shape. Sand traps need some attention. Overall, an enjoyable round.

Nice Course But is changing...

A fun course, Great conditions, staff friendly.a nice tee selection, not very long, some tee shots are tight, but fairways open. Some houses along the course likely been there from the beginning, they do not encroach and are not in play. The day I played, hole number 1 and 2 are being encroached by new housing construction, I assume this will expand to more of the course. The housing being developed seriously changes both holes involved and it appears the new housing will be in play and in my opinion will diminish the experience.

Overbooked but greens are GREAT!!

I have played this course multiple times and until today have not had an issue with it being overbooked. Had multiple groups with the same tee time. Made for a very slow round of golf, even passing a group of 4 we still got stuck behind 5 more groups. It happens like that sometimes though. Greens for the last few months have been awesome!!! Very well taken care of. The construction that seems neverending on hole 2 is an eyesore and makes the hole hard to play. They don't seem to be making any progress with it. Price was fair this time but there have been times it has been way higher and not worth the expense in my opinion. If the same deal is available I will play this course again due to the convenience to my home.

Challenging course

Greens are in good shape but somewhat slow. Fairways are in good shape. Played behind a very slow foursome that did not allow faster groups to play through.

Fun course

Fun but challenging. Wife and I are not the best of golfers ,but there are plenty of tees to play from. Greens rolled good with plenty of breaks for a challenging putt. Fairways were good condition and the rough not too high that you can't find your strays. Number one and two have some construction going on, but that was a minor thing. Go have fun.

Fun round

Knowing some of the doglegs, will save a few shots. Not a very long course but very fun. Greens and fairways were in great shape. The only negative is the construction going on outside the course itself cause a few diversions. Go for it you will enjoy it.

Great choice for the Money

Love playing at Lincoln Country Club. Can get on during the weekday for as low as $26 on GolfNow. Greens are the best in the area, and are consistent throughout all 18 holes. Cheapest range balls around, as its only $4 to hit the grass driving range. The front nine and back nine are different with the back being more open, which gives golfers a different test. The only con is that the pace of play can be slow sometimes, especially in the afternoon. Overall its a awesome round of golf for the money! Look forward to coming back soon.

Best Greens around. Layout is odd. Good value for $30 or under

Not worth $40. Pushing it at $35. Definelty worth $30 or under. Greens are top notch. Fairway was slight above good...but factor in the several inches of rain the past couple of days fairways were much better than expected.

Course conditions were as good as they could be. Just the layout for me doesn't suit my taste. Feels like a Donald Ross course at times, hitting to uphill greens constantly. The holes that bend are ok because you actually don't have to fade your drive. The designer made it where you land your normal driver distance and then still have a straight approach, so that part of the layout is good.

Worth it if you can play for $30 and under.

Playing with my buddy.

It had rained for three days so it was wet. The greens were perfect and the ball rolled true. The fairways had not been cut but that was due to all the rain. I would not call this course a country club and there are better choices like Tillery Tradition Country Club or even Red Bridge or Eagle Chase Golf Club so I probably will not play here again.

Always worth it.

I have been spending time at LCC quite frequently since the beginning of the year. Took a few years for me to decide to make the drive out there from Charlotte, but after doing it once, it has been either a weekly or biweekly thing. In my opinion, you’d be hard pressed to find better greens; they are absolutely phenomenal. Fun course to walk with a great layout. It’s the first course I recommend to people that haven’t played it! Nice job to all at LCC! Appreciate you!
