“Country Club” is a little overrated…
Layout is quite monotonous, flat terrain and lots o holes are quite standard.
Fairways and greens ok.
Pace of play ok but started already 10mns behind schedule at 7:10 am !
Globally quite average experience.
Fun
The course fit my eye quite well
Look forward to next trip
Perfect Mix
I love the mixture of holes I don’t want to say much more due to making it even harder to book a decent tee time but this just might be my 1st option going forward
Always Used To Look Forward to Lakewood
The greens were recently punched. Unplayable. The fairways were muddy and many holes marred by tire tracks from grounds crew. Had to keep moving the ball around to find a decent lie. Unplayable.
We got to the 13th hole... and were greeted by four foursomes waiting to tee off. Four.
We left after 12.
Not good.
Great in the mornings ONLY
Plays slow in the afternoons and anything past it, amazing conditions in the morning. Groups move faster at this time. Overall my favorite course in Long Beach.
New to this course
The golfers that joined me had not played there before and enjoyed it
Fun course
Course and greens in great condition. Pace of play was good. Some fun holes. Price is ok for the course. If you can get a tee time, try. 😁
Good tee time, weak body!
This is a nice course with wide fairways. It has several water features scattered throughout the course. It's well maintained. Greens are large and wavey.
It was good golf until I (Old duffer) ran out of gas and quit after 12 holes.
We finished
We started at 3:30 and finished 18. The course was in great condition as always. Thank you Lakewood GC.
Don't play here
The course itself is nice. The greens were rolling nice.
I have played this course a few times over the past 20-30 years. I have only played two rounds in my entire life (I'm 68 years old) & both have been at this course. We had a 1:40 pm tee time and start close to on time. When we arrived at the 5th tee box we were the third group waiting to tee off, ridiculous! We saw that a group in the 6th fairway was a hold behind the group in front of them. So we called the pro shop to see if we get the marshall out to assist with speeding things up.. We were asked if we could be placed on a "brief" hold to which we said yes (what else could we have done). 15 minutes later we were still on the "brief" hold so we hung up. It took 3:05 to complete the first 9 holes. After completing 12 holes (4+ hours) one of our group had to leave because he had another commitment. Then after 14 holes (almost 5 hours) two more in the group had to leave. I wasn't going to be the lone player between two groups of four so I bowed out too. We wouldn't have been able to complete the round anyway because it was past 6:30 pm with sunset at 7:02 pm.
Maybe I'll play here again, if I can get the first tee time of the day!!
Too slow
We chose to quit after the eleventh hole. There were two groups of four at the 12th hole. One just starting to Tee off and us (2) along with the other group of four waiting. The entire course was very slow, always waiting. That, and no beer or snacks to be found except the clubhouse. You'd think at 4ish on a 100 degree Sunday that they'd have some refreshments. There were only two of us so we were patient until that major back up. You're talking 30 minutes per hole to tee off if we played it out. Lots of potential but...
