Lake Land Village Golf Course - Generation II & III Course
About
While LakeLand Village is known for its PGA-level, 27-hole course, it is more than just a golf facility. Situated just 45 minutes west of Tacoma, the community surrounds Anderson Lake, offering three beaches with swimming areas and stunning views of Mt. Rainier to the south. It's a great option for family retreats or just a challenging round of golf. The course is divided into three nines known as Generation I, II, and II that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The Gen II and III golf course is arguably the most challenging combination. Strategically placed bunkers frame the undulating greens and the narrow fairways demand accuracy. Water hazards and out-of-bounds come into play throughout as well. The nines vary in level of difficulty, providing options for players of all skill levels.

Great wet weather course
Me and my golf buddy played on a day when it had rained for a couple of days. We found the fairways still offered a good roll in most places and the greens rolling true and fairly well for the amount of rain that had fallen.
We had a great day as we both were driving the ball pretty well.
Recommend this course even after a good rain!
Lakeland Village Golf Course
This is a very well maintained course. It is a great track would recommend it to everyone. Pace of play was under 4 hours.
Great day for a walk
I plated with clubs I got from a friend, so they were new for me. It took me several holes to get used to them, but I sure did enjoy the course. The greens were in great shape and pretty fast. There was quite a bit of goose crap in places., It was about 45 degrees and dry, but the fairways had moisture on them. I did rent a pull cart so that added $9 to the cost for the round.
I always enjoy this course and will be back.
Great value
Beautiful course that was challenging but not so to make the time un-enjoyable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Definitely a place to revisit.
Great course in great condition
Course is in excellent shape, especially the greens. Best around. Loved the variety of holes and fun layout.
All depends
I play this course several times a year. This summer the greens appeared to be under watered and rolling crazy fast (14...?) and would not hold wedges or even long putts.
When the season is wetter (spring and fall) the greens are more fair and hold well - but you get no roll out on your tee shots and long irons.
All in all, I love the course and its variety of holes/layout. Challenging enough to keep your attention without being frustrating.
Great wet weather track
I play this course about twice a month. With the wet weather coming I still get some roll on the ball. The greens are starting to get back to normal. Great job with that.
Hard course
Played the blues first ever, came up with an 88. The is OB and lateral everywhere on this course. Drive it straight or you’re in trouble. The wind was blowing hard as well. Overall fun course to play. Always a uphill or downhill shot to make.
Good wet weather course
This course offers plenty of birdie opportunities as well as some long par 4s where par or bogey is a good score. The fairways will give you the roll. Something the will be harder to find as wet weather descends.
Highly recommended!
Great condition
This course was punched and sanded an still putted great. Usually has fast greens. Todaybwas tad slower but great job on the greens. Very playable
Played in the afternoon and it was not too crowded. A little dry in places, but overall the course is in excellent condition. Price on Golf Now was more than reasonable.
Soggy round
Usually this course gives you the conditions that we wait all winter for. Great fairways and some roll. On this particular day there was a lot of water on the course. Very soggy and there were places on several holes that were so wet they were almost unplayable.
Carts drive over those parts and tear up the course as well.
I love this course but let it dry out some and leave the wet soggy conditions for winter.
Fun time
I had a very good experience. Met three really good guys and Had a very enjoyable round of golf.
My favorite course
I live in Tacoma and have played all the on the peninsula, in town, and many others. I now play Lakeland at least once a week and twice is not uncommon. My drive to Lakeland is 45-50 minutes and I don;t care. The greens are sweet, fast, challenging, I'd pit the overall against anywhere, Olympic, Oakbrook, McCormick. They are right. The layout of Gen 3 and 2 challenge you every hole. 5 and 6 on Gen 3 are short but frustrating . We call it the gauntlet. The guys at the desk are great and the girls are beautiful. Good beer, burgers and dogs. The course is the most peaceful I've ever played. I'm 60 years old and a 10 handicap. See you there. It's not Pebble but I love it.
I brought a couple others who had not golfed here...
We tee doff at about 3:30 so we were pretty much alone... cloudy day but no rain. We played pretty poorly, but not because of the course. They ere clear that they want to come back.
