Lakewood Country Club

Super slow pace and no Marshall to move things along.

Greens are rolling great but the pin placements were difficult today with the speed of the greens. Lots of pins on down slopes and you have to make sure you are below the hole or you will blow it 7-10’ by easily. Hole 14 was absurd being put on a greater than 3% slope. 3 people in my group missed uphill putts by 1-2” short and the ball would roll back down 4+ feet. Then they would miss it 2” past and the same thing, roll back down 4+ feet. They all ended up 4+ putting that hole.

The round took 5hours and 45 minutes to complete. Waited on every tee box and no marshall on the course. No valid excuse for this.

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.

Pace of play very slow seven holes took two hours. No Marshall.

The course fit my eye quite well

Look forward to next trip

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

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.

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.

The golfers that joined me had not played there before and enjoyed it

Ever hole we waited with two to three groups. How can this happen?
