Slowest round ever!!

Pace of play was terrible. Had to wait to tee off on average on every hole for 20 minutes. Par 3's 30 minutes. Ruins the whole round. Quit after 11 holes due to darkness

Great course

Well maintained. Roughs weren’t too high. fairways and greens were perfect. Long, championship caliber course but still good for beginners because you don’t lose many balls like other courses

Muni in Lakewood

For the money, can't do better anywhere within 100 miles. Course was very wet with sprinklers being left on too long bit I'm sure it's due to getting ready for summer.

Night and day.

Haven’t played at Lakewood in almost ten years. It’s not what I remember. They definitely put some money into that course. The clubhouse and course is so beautiful now. Will definitely be making more visits.

Established course

Lakewood CC has been around for over 60 years and still stands up as a moderately challenging course. Pace of play was excellent completing our round in four hours and rarely waiting on a Tee box. Unfortunately for us they were in the process of aerating the greens with a couple of holes had temporary greens as its that time of year, but overall the rest of the course was in great shape. Will definitely play it again.

Golfers need to chip in

Great course and conditions after the rain. A few holes were cart path only not bad overall, issue here is groups ahead not fixing their divots. Let’s not be lazy and ruin a good course/ take pride in what we have. Nothing here is on the course purely on the golfers themselves if you claim to be to old to fix a divot then play on a golf simulator and stop ruining the greens for the rest of us
