Lake Forest GC - Daphne, AL

Nice little course. Weaves its way through a housing sub-division. Fairways were in good condition. A few greens had recently been aerated and sanded so were a little tricky to read. Nice practice facilities. Super friendly staff. Great value for money. Would definitely play again if in the area

2d time around

I enjoyed the course much more the second time around. The 2 greens that needed help are getting better. The fairways are nice and choices of age related tee boxes are fair. I'll be back.

Fun course, some greens are a little rough

This course was very fun to play and the layout was difficult but very enjoyable, 3 or 4 greens were in rough shape, but overall the course was in good condition. Nice value for your money if you want to play a challenging course with some fun shots.

As good as any in Baldwin rn

I’ve played about 8 rounds in a month and some change all in Baldwin County (different courses), once in Dothan. The conditions are as good as any outside of Lakewood and rock creek. For the price this is the best $40 round right now, you could convince me glen lakes when it’s wide open. The greens have some spots but 10x better than timber or quail creek rn. The Marshall was outstanding we saw him at least 3 times, very helpful. Cart girl was great 3x at least. Some tee boxes are rough but never affected the play. I played horrible and am writing a great review so it really was a good experience

Worth the money

Marshall/starter very helpful. Course is in very good shape. Fairways and greens great; tee boxes not so much (but not a deal-breaker).

Fairly priced

This course is exactly what you’d expect for the price. Fairways are in good shape except for a few spots where they are burnt out. Same with greens, front 9 is worse than back 9 but still fair.

Loved the fairways

Looking for a course to play while driving through the area. Pleasantly surprised with the course layout and condition of the fairways.

Greens had just been aerated, so can’t comment. Tee boxes (most) were in bad shape. But that’s not a dealbreaker. Gray, the marshall/starter was helpful and very friendly.

Good price, great pace of play.

Fairways are very good.

Tee boxes had little grass and very hard

Greens were very poor with up to 25% with no grass

Carts excellent.

Staff very good with Marshall excellent.

Played with new 2some, good people.

Course is challenging with good elevations for a coastal course.

Nice Golf Course for a fair price

I played a round of golf with my daughter and we enjoyed our morning at Lake Forest Golf Course! The entire staff was friendly from the person checking us in at the counter to the starter to the cart girl. Thank you!

Enjoyed the round

Course is definitely needing some attention, but they’re trying to get it back and better. Fairways were great, greens had their issues. Layout was great. Shot my best 18 round score ever.
