Rating Snapshot
About
Lake Presidential Golf Club is one of Maryland's most popular public courses. It is a challenging championship layout that is player friendly enough to accommodate a wide range of skill levels. It stands out from run-of-the-mill municipal courses with exceptional conditions from the tees to the greens. The layout offers a diverse mix of holes that will have golfers using every club in their bag. There are some especially interesting par 3s that are visible but with enough hazards to make them a challenge. Houses border the front nine holes but they are absent on the back nine. The fairways on the last nine holes are densely lined with mature trees. The golf course finishes with an enjoyable par 5 that plays over a lake. It can be reached in two with a little skill and accuracy.

Challenging and long
This course looked so interesting on line. It lived up to its expectations. It will look even better as we get into spring. Worth the drive.
Fun, Challenging Course
This is a great design that will keep you on your toes regardless of the tee box you select. There is a lot of water, tree lined fairways, sand traps, and elevation changes to play around. The greens rolled well and the chipping areas were well groomed. The staff was friendly. I will return.
Great course
The course was fantastic very challenging. I liked it.
Amazing
The views alone were amazing. The course was a lot of fun with the layout being moderately difficult. Was definitely a great time for me and my wife who just rides and doesn't play. This course was definitely worth the money.
Worst pace of play I have ever seen
9 minute gaps between tee times on this course are a joke. Over 6 hours for a round supposed to tee off at 9am. Waiting on practically every shot throughout the day. It is such an easy fix but the management are more interested in the money grab than creating a positive golfing experience. That money obviously does not go into the course itself. Course has great bones, but poorly manicured throughout. Bunkers not maintained and greens and teeboxes not looked after either. Won't be back again.
Pace of playing
It took 3 hours 20 minutes to finish 9 holes. There were no personal to control this. Only finished 13 hole due to darkness. Office closed so l couldn’t get rain check. Terrible experience.
Hello, sam2961189. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Lake Presidential Golf Club.
Really Enjoyed!
We got out during the week, and its been dry so the course played pretty well. Breezed through 8 holes before we met 2 4somes, then needed to remember the pace of play is a little slower - but overall very happy
Remember to rake bunks and fix ball marks/divots - no one is going to do it for you!

Top shelf course without the top shelf attitude.
Staff could not have been more hospitable.
You can't help enjoying the course even when your not at your best..
Thanks to all the staff for your friendly attention to your patrons 😊
I will be seeing you all soon.

Very nice public course. Will play again.
Course was in great shape. Definitely will play this in season. 5 different tee boxes set the course up well for any skill level. Large undulated greens can be challenging. Overall great value and well presented course.
