Lockwood Folly Country Club is a superbly conditioned, semi-private, member owned "hidden gem". The course is located at the confluence of the Intracoastal Waterway and the Lockwood Folly River, providing golfers with breathtaking vistas of tidal estuary, moss covered hard- woods and the solitude of nature. Tree lined, nonparallel fairways winding through hardwoods and pine afford a sense of seclusion while challanged with championship golf.

John Neugebauer visiting from NEPA.

I haven’t played this course for a few years. I have always enjoyed the course design. The pin locations give the average golfer a fair shot at a sub 90 score making the round enjoyable. Most of the bunkers surrounding the greens gave you a playable lie having dry, loose sand and the fairway bunkers allowed for ball advancement. My only disappointment was in the fairway. I didn’t ‘t remember the turf being so spongy. Divits were stringy and straw-like making an accurate shot challenging. I meant to ask if the fairways were reseeded to make them more resistant to hot, dry conditions. Overall we had a nice afternoon of golf zipping around the course in well maintained carts!

Good layout

Good course and the layout was good as well. Unfortunately was slow play on many holes. Course could use some TLC however. Lots of rain made some of bunkers unplayable!

First time at the wood

Enjoyed it

Lockwood definitely favors players who draw the ball.

The view from the 18th green is very nice.

The staff was very friendly.

Greens were okay but the fairways were very nice as were the tee boxes.

Was a hot day and all the water coolers were empty and there was not anyone at the halfway house and the drink machine did not work.

Beautiful

The 18th hole on this course is probably one of the most beautiful holes I’ve ever seen. The backdrop for the 18th green is the intracostal waterway. Course overall in pretty good shape. Some of the greens not so great

Great Value

Great value for an afternoon round. Pace of play was slow on front due to some older members, but they only played 9 holes so we played the back in 1:40. Greens had a few bad spots but they placed the pins away from the spots, and some greens were perfect. You will have to navigate some water off the tee but the hazards are well marked. Staff and bag guy were awesome. The beverage cart was by 3 times in 18 holes. Club house and views were awesome. Overall a great value.
