About
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.

Lincoln Country Club
The course was in good condition and plays well. We did run into a 3 some ahead of us and that slowed the pace. We never saw a ranger, so we feel that there was no one monitoring the pace.
But we made the most of it and still had a good time.
Drove an hour and 15 mins because it was only $16 to play and needed to get out of the house but believe you me, it was worth every minute. For the price I was expecting some interesting conditions but overall, 7.7/10. No cart girls so don’t get your hopes up boys :/
Very good greens
First time playing here. Greens are good. Fairways still have to green- up. Construction near hole 1 and 2 cause some issues. Some holes are disected by roads. Approach shot on 18 is extremely uphill. Range condition is very poor. Cart paths on back are poor. That said, good deals on GolfNow make this track adequate. I will try to return during the summer.
The greens were in amazing condition. The fairways were a little burned out still on a few holes. However, they were doing a lot of work on and around the course so I fully expect the course to be in excellent shape when the season is in full swing. I will certainly be back to play again.
Front 9 vs. Back 9
I played this course with my son for the first time in 2 years. The front nine is easier than the back nine and the maintenance is obvious especially with the cart paths being repaved. The 2nd hole is strange because of the contamination of debris before the green. The back nine is harder and has received no upgrading of cart paths or anything. All 18 greens are good. 3.5 Stars.
Cart paths
The cart paths have finally been fixed on the front nine! All new pavement the whole front nine. Considering the time of year, the course is in good shape. Sometimes it's cart path only, but thats ok. Definitely worth the price.
Nice Course with Newly Paved Cart Paths
This course was in pretty nice shape for the end of December. The new cart paths were really nice to drive on. I only played the front nine so I'm not sure about the current condition of the paths on the back nine. The greens were pretty quick and looked great. The fairways and approach areas looked to be in good condition. The bunkers were in good condition but I did not see any rakes to fix them back up after playing out of them. Par 3s were pretty long. This is a great place.
The course is good ！
The course is good, but the Cart Lane has a lot of potholes. Too close to the road, easy to take care of the surrounding vehicles.
Great course
Always one of my favorites to play and the greens are great!
