Lake Presidential Golf Club

If I could afford it, this is the course to play every week.

It's a great design and good layout. Needed a starting and marshal patrolling for pace of play.

Left #1, played 10 and 11, back to 1 -6, then 11-18, then 6-9. Finished before sun went down... I think the 4 groups infront of us are still on the course!

Needs water on course too, but in communist MD where water jugs must have covid

Have not played here in over 2 years as I swore off this course due to a six hour round and poor conditions. Decided to try 9 holes on a weekday afternoon. How bad can it be...worse than I could have ever imagined. I will say the course conditions are WAY better now but the Pace of play is UNBELIEVABLE slow. 2 hrs and 45 for 9 holes. Our tee time was 5:45. What they failed to tell me was league play had times until 5:30. Got to the first tee and they had an A group and B group on one for the league. Guess they thought 15 minutes is enough time to both groups off. Waited on every hole. No marshall in site. Beverage cart saw us on one and said she would not be back as no one from the league every buys anything.

After reading the many reviews prior to writing this I am not the only one complaining. What gets me is the management is not doing anything about it. I guess why should they as the course is still packed and people are paying high dollars to play. Might be another couple years before I go back.

Lake Presidential has always been a favorite to play but the price is normally too much. I found a great deal on GolfNow, which should be the normal price due to them now charging for range balls. I believe range at any course should be free with a round of golf.

Too many ball marks on greens and deep divots not repaired. Maybe some players think leaving their ball mark on the greens is a remembrance of them actually hitting the green. What is the point of having a course Marshall driving around if they won't tell a twosome keep up to the foursome in front of them.

Very nice course, challenging... Rained heavy 2 days before I played.. Fairways were very wet, but greens drained very well

Lake President is back to prestige condition- Great Job Adam!

Visually attractive course but very challenging especially #5. Great view on #8 approach.

Played this course multiple times and pace of play is always an issue. However my most recent experience was the worst I've ever had at any golf course. My foursome had an afternoon tee time (3:50pm) and we didn't tee off until 4:15 due to no available carts. Once we got our carts, it then took us 3 hours and 20 minutes to play 9 holes because the course was severely overbooked. We made the turn at 7:15pm and when we went to request a rain check, they would not honor it. Unacceptable and unfair to those who paid to play and were then punished by no fault of their own. This course has a lot of potential, however the negligible course management has to be addressed.

I had a tee time in the afternoon and when I got there, they said they ran out of carts. I came back at the time I was supposed to tee off and they still didn't have any carts. Another guy was there waiting for a cart and his tee time was 20 minutes before mine.

I went in to ask for a raincheck, which they reluctantly gave me. When I complained about the first tee box being so backed up and no carts, she said "you know it's a holiday and a lot of people are playing". I have played many other courses on a holiday and have never had my tee time be 30 minutes after my scheduled time.

Had an enjoyable round at the start, but after 3-4 holes, play was dirt slow due to a foursome in front of us which clearly did not know how to keep up with pace of play and would not let our threesome play through. There were at least two other groups behind us impacted on every hole from 4-10. There were no course marshalls anywhere to be found, so we called the clubhouse and was told they would send someone out... but we never saw anyone other than the beverage cart. We ended up skipping the 12th hole to get around them, as did at least one other group. I play about 30-40 rounds a year and this was the worst I'd experienced in years. Not planning to play this course again, will opt for one that monitors play better, or at all!

The course was in very good shape and thr greens were also rolling well. However the pace of play (6 hrs 15m) is not acceptable- anywhere. Two of my foursome said they will never return after being late to their kids' events that nobody would think they would be late for since thry started at 7 and we teed off at 112pm. They had 2 marshals on the course but the course was still backed up. Credit does go that they told us the first 5 holes were slow, but then it continued the rest of the way. Over 3 hrs for each nine holes. Wow. Lots of unhappy golfers out there and unhappy spouses at home. They need to get their act together. Even with the long round we only saw the beverage cart 3 x the entire round.

Pace of play was excellent because the threat of storms kept everyone off the course.

Course was in good condition except where players didn't replace/fill divots and the greens were abused with unrepaired ball marks. I guess people felt that since they paid so much to play someone else should be fixing the ball marks.

Several tee boxes were being resodded but that wasn't a problem because there were several to choose from on each hole.

The snack bar was not open so no food but you could get beer and soft drinks in the golf shop. No beverage cart on the course.

The sun came out on the 19th hole so it was a good day all in all.

Course is difficult which is cool, staff overbooks tee times and the marshall doesnt push people through. Took almost 6 hours for ny round of a TWOSOME. Course was sending people out every 10 minutes and by hole 4 there was a 4 group backup. Spoke to the GM and he’s just suchhhhh a friendly guy. For 80$ I won’t be back and won’t miss the staff at all. Hope management gets better.

About my 3rd-4rd nice challenge very enjoyable for a 15 handicap player will be back
