Lake Presidential Golf Club

Played here on 8 Oct. 0815 tee time. The parking was full ans there was a tournament to start later than us (0900). Even with the tournament that seamed to have started on hole 10 we completed our round just under 5hrs. Track was in great shape! Will play again!

3 days since last rain and at least 1/2 the course still a soggy mess. Needs either new drainage or stop watering or Something. Because of water, grass was green and lush making fairways a Must but when your feet ‘sink’ in the fairways, you know it’s going to be a rough day !!! Greens about a 9 stemp and not real smooth. Bunkers are unplayable.

The course overall was wet after several days of rain, which is understandable. However, some fairways had large areas that were extremely muddy, almost to the point of quicksand. This suggests a more serious underlying drainage problem. If your ball landed in these spots, recovering it would be nearly impossible.

Needless to say, it was strictly cart‑path‑only!

Very well kept up, challenging layout. Either overbooked or poorly managed pace of play. We were over an hour behind and finished in 6 hours. Cart path only rules exacerbated delays on a hilly course.

I enjoyed our round at Lake Presidential. The course is challenging which requires you to ensure you are mindful of your club selection.

There were issues with system which required cart path only for a few holes but overall a great experience (again)!

Despite a lack of rainfall, the course was very soggy. 100% car path only. Numerous balls were "lost" in the fairways due to the water-logged conditions. We found a few completely plugged, although not always our ball. Hard to explain as I live in the area and we have not had much rain in the last week or so.

A few holes we didn’t even have a T box, basically hitting from the rough along side the T boxes. Numerous fairways have been beaten on, no one repairs the divots, the players do not value the course. Greens, same thing, few players repair the divots on the greens. Course has potential but I’ll wait till next year before going back. Disappointing.

Green was bumpy, no maintenance. Fairways wasn’t maintained well. A few holes had Tee Boxes relocated to a sloppy area…

Scene was good though.

Tee boxes were awful and there was only fairway or rough, no first cut. Also roughs were so deep you could not find ball if you were not in fairway. Greens and fairway were great. Some fairways were very soggy and balls would plug almost all the way.

Extremely slow. no marshalls in course to move a 6-some along so waited about 5-10 minutes on every tee. Would like to play again if they didn't allow 6-somes and incredibly slow play.

"This course continues to amaze me with how badly it is run. 3 times I've been here this year and it gets worse and worse.

120 dollars for: mud tee boxes

Aerated greens

Unmaintained rough

Overly watered fairways (nearly all my drives plugged in the fairway)

Conditions so bad on a number of holes that they have to be cart path only

Muddy bunkers

This course could be incredible with its challenging layout. But currently the most they should be charging for a tee time is 60 bucks with these conditions."

Horrible! 4 groups waited on the first tee waiting to tee off. Starter when present had no idea what was going on. Tee times were being made up. We started a half hour late. Asked for a refund offered a rain check for a course I would never want to play again. Total round 6.5 hours after we tree off half hour late. This is how courses close down, which is exactly what is happening!

Lake Presidential is one of the most challenging tracks around yet the upkeep makes me sad. They have lost tee boxes, the greens are too slow and they don't maintain any of the off areas of the golf course.

Compared to the last time (2+ years ago) the course is in shambles. I do understand unpredictable weather patterns…

Staff was great.
