Lakewinds Golf Course

I've played this course before and thought it was okay. It's open, for the most part. I was able to land on, and stay on, the greens. And the ball generally rolled as expected.

This time was a little different. I've no idea what changed. The Ball rolled - a lot. And since a lot of approaches are uphill. Yup, you guessed correctly, a lot of negative yards. And you cannot be long on most of the holes. Since the greens are humpbacked, they drain well - and roll well too. I was only able to hold 2 greens, probably hit 9.

Due to the roll on the majority of fairways, I think I played the distance of an extra par 4.

Okay, that's the negatives. Positives, the greens roll well, seem to be consistent, and roll true. The pace of play was really good. I played by myself and didn't catch anyone until the 16th hole. For the price paid I did get what I paid for... it was a really good practice round.

If you play this course watch the slopes of the fairways and play position accordingly.

Very nice course for the money. Nice staff as well.

Only thing better than playing the course is the guys in the clubhouse.

This is a very interesting course layout. Not long off the tees, but tons of elevation changes. Elevated greens that are old school bowl edges and not very large - makes for some scary uphill wedges where you do not want to hit the ball too far. The greens are great shape right now...but easy to miss. Then you need a good lob wedge. Multiple tees are a bit intimidating, but fair. Several tree-lined fairways - errant shots are usually found.

Staff was blunt and didn’t like the fact I paid online like as if he was about to over charge me if I didn’t¿

Everything was well maintained from the tee box to the greens. Hard to beat their prices. Only downside is no range available. Other than that, no negatives at all.

For the area, the price, the course quality, staff and amenities… you aren’t getting better than LW’s

This short layout is made more challenging by small, elevated greens.

The staff was very friendly and the pace of play was excellent.

Course was in outstanding shape, had the place to ourselves because we were the only ones silly enough to trudge through the rain!

Nice layout. Lots of elevation changes. Small greens. Good shape. Great value.

You just beat this place. It’s challenging, fun, grass is well kept. I’d suggest it and I’ll definitely be back.

Walked in and was told to just “find a cart”. Course was busy but there was over 20 carts on the first tee. Didn’t tee off until 2 hours after our original tee time. Took 3.5 HOURS to play 7 holes. Left and went home after getting a nice tan from sitting in the cart that long.

If you’re looking to just get hammered with your buddies and play 8 hours of golf this is the one for you.

Challenging and fun course! Has everything the bigger courses have but way less expensive. It’s my favorite course in the area and I would highly recommend playing it

Layout and conditions are average. Pace of play is fairly quick. But this is the situation regardless of weather conditions.

Good course for a warm up.

Very enjoyable to play with the elevations and layout.

The course was busy being a holiday week but the course was in great shape and we all had a good time.
