Oakbrook delivers consistently excellent course conditions, with well-kept fairways, manageable rough, and greens that roll true and hold approach shots. The layout features interesting doglegs across a fairly long track, offering strong value for the quality of golf.

Located less than an hour from Seattle in Lakewood, Oakbrook Golf Club is one of the area's hidden gems. Opened in 1966 as a private club, the course opened its doors to the public in 2012. The course is known for its smooth, firm, and fast greens. The 6,700-yard layout plays both narrow and long but it is player friendly enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels. With hundreds of mature oak trees scattered throughout the course, accuracy is key. It's a course that rewards strategy rather than raw skill. One of Oakbrook Golf Club's toughest holes is the par-4 seventh, which you'll have to play from below since it's sloped steeply from top to bottom. The downhill shots and doglegs will put golfers of any skill level to the test.

Beautiful course

This course is in excellent shape. The fairways are in top shape and the greens are very receptive in great shape and lightning fast!
My only complaint is that there are absolutely no markers on any of the tee boxes telling you what hole you are on , or any signage anywhere directing you to the next hole. We actually missed an entire hole . Other than that a great experience and will definitely be back!

Almost perfect

The only thing I can say negative was that the bunkers were/had compacted sand only top <1/2" was loose. They needed to be tilled/stirred.

Great course, slow play

Got stuck behind a slow 5-some. Course allows 5-somes and has a tin ear to complaints about it.

Hidden Gem

Oakbrook is a nice addition to the public golf menu in the South Sound... a very playable (and walkable) course with enough tee options to satisfy golfers of all levels. The course is in very good shape. Narrow fairways and big trees require accuracy off the tee; the greens are firm and fast.

You'll need GPS to find this course (or find anything in Lakewood!), but it's well worth the drive.

Good course for the money but not great...

Good course for the money but not great...there are at least three small things that would make this course much better such as adding hole signs with yardage, adding more hole yardage stakes/stones and finally have sandwiches and hotdogs available quickly at the turn.

Excellent greens, fast and true.

The course played a bit longer today since we have had a lot of rain in the past 3 days, but the greens were in excellent shape. I produced one of my best scores this year with 9 one putts on the day.

Former private gem now available to us all!

This is a beautilful course - very well maintained. While some of the fairways are quite narrow, it is still playable for mid to high handicappers. A very walkable course. There are some challenging holes with 400+ yard par fours, evilly placed bunkers, and several trees that just seem to want to get in the way of your path to the green. And speaking of the greens, they're fast and several have some undulations that create a opportunities for a few nasty pin placements (which the greens keepers seem to like to take advantage of).

I enjoyed my round and linked up with some very pleasant company both times I played. Definitely put this on your list of must play courses.

great value

Oakbrook is never a disappointment. The greens are always in fabulous shape. Even with all the rain we have had the course is always fairly dry. A must play.

Nice well maintained track

Ex private club which has recently converted to daily fee. Still has a feel of a Country Club, super condition, fairways very good condition, tee boxes excellent and Greens superb, bunkers were all raked with decent amount of sand. My only thing here and this is really picky but the tee boxes are not numbered (I know this is a throwback to the country club days) the layout is fairly easy to follow and the map on the scorecard helps. Hitting thru the power lines crossing the fairways was interesting. overall a great place and the halfway shack was reasonable priced too.

Nothing special

Course is ok. Flat. Greens were littered with pitch marks. Apparently the people that usually play out there do not know how to fix them. Would have appreciated knowing there were about 4 temp greens from the course staff or golf now but that didn't happen either.
