Golf next to Top Golf !!!!

The course layout is fun and well maintained. The top tracer on hole #10 is nice. Great course to practice short game:

Good short game practice

If you need the work on your 70-90 yd shots, this is a good practice course. Greens are in pretty good condition.

GC and amenities beware

I’ve been going to the Lakes before and after the remodel. The new layout is fun and looked great when it first opened. Starting to see some wear and tear now. The plastic mats are thrashed and need replacing and the tee boxes are constantly under repair. Other than that, I’d recommend the course. However if you want food, go elsewhere. I waited an hour for a sandwich and this was midweek at 11:30 am. I was comp’d the sandwich after an hour but the service is terrible. Their employees need serious training in customer service.

Perfect for short game work.

John Daley says golf is all about 150 and in. This is the place to work that. For $30ish, you get 10 holes on grass, a good chip/putt practice area, a bucket of balls to hit next door at Top Golf, and a free cup of coffee. Staff I friendly and accommodating.

Hidden Gem

this course has actually been here a long time but with all the upgrades and improvements it's a really great place.

Nice staff, great condition, good pace.

I highly Recommend this place.

It's right next door to the new top golf so that's only a bonus.
