Lake Presidential Golf Club

Course is completely beat up. Dry dirt patches everywhere. Took my friend there and I was completely embarrassed. He call it the worst he has ever seen. I am inclined to agree. Staff is also the worst. General manager is the least helpful I have ever seen. Got there early for my tee time and even with only 2-3 groups going out per hour, would not let us out earlyy.

I have played this course many times and typically find it an enjoyable and challenging outing. Today there were two problems: golfers started on the back nine; fine. but by reaching the 10th (first) hole things got totally mired down. This course does only 8 minutes between tee times; probably the fewest in the area and it became impossibly slow (waiting 10-15 minutes for the party in front of you to clear out. We quit after 13 holes.. And they had just aerated some of the the fairways. So for many holes it was almost impossible to find an unencumbered piece of grass from which to hit your shot. At their rates they. need to better on both counts.

Slow pace of play, 5:15 round. Expensive green fee. Course in rough shape (Fairways look like they hadn't been mowed in a week, dead/patchy areas on and around greens, patchy tee boxes, number of bunkers flooded).

What an awful experience we had at Lake Presidential. We show up for a 10:20 tee time and the starter says there is still two groups ahead of us so we don’t tee off until 25 mins later (which is a joke). Then the round proceeds to take 5:30 mins….just terrible pace of play and they did nothing to improve it and just said “it’s a nice day out and full course.” At one point there were 4 groups on or waiting to play hole 15. The course also costs over $100 is in below average shape with uncut greens and lack of grass around the greens. I’ve played this course 3 times before this one and this will be my last. Staff were jerks too and did not offer any accommodations for the terrible experience. Lake Presidential is officially off my list of tracks.

I’ve been a repeat customer at this course despite the fact that it’s priced way above the actual conditions. Will not be going back after the experience today. We were told that our tee time would be delayed by 15 minutes, which actually ended up being close to 30. The starter accidentally let a group go off the wrong nine and then called them back after had already played two holes. In the meantime he refused to let any of the groups that had arrived for their tee times go off. Once we did get on the course, pace of play was the slowest I’ve ever seen. We had 4 groups on one par 4 more than once. The Marshall came by only to let us know that we should expect a pace of 4 hours and 30 minutes, which was just clearly not true.

Beautiful, challenging layout at a great value. The course the last time I was out wasn’t in top shape as it usually is, but there were heavy rains earlier in the week so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Still on of the best public tracks in the area.

Slow Friday afternoon. No marshal. Greens a disaster. Need to explain how ball marks damage greens and give out free divot repair tools. Love this layout - they just can’t get it all together. Played on a hot deal - so fair value - but NO WAY - should anyone pay the premium prices or come to expect high end golf conditions.

I had a Hot deal for $57.00 and the regular price is $105.00. $57.00 was too expensive for this course. There were a lot of repairs being made to Tee boxes. The greens were aerated several weeks ago and the were still in rough shape. Hairy greens. Some of the fairways were as long as the rough. The Tee boxes were pushed all the way forward and were so worn out that you could not get grip on the sandy TEE box. The cups on the greens look like they have not been moved in weeks. The grass was burnt up around the cup edges and the edges were very rough looking. I am not frustrated that they were working on the course. I am frustrated that the conditions and the price do not match. This condition is as tops a $40.00 course and they are charging $105.00. I could play in better conditions at the local municipal golf course for $40-$50.

Unfortunately greens had just been aerated,, course was not in great shape. Since it’s close to the end of the season I guess it could look better in the Spring. Fun layout, definitely helps to have played here before or ply with someone that can tell you the angles and what lays ahead for the blind shots. 18th hole & 9th hole are memorable and fun.

Earlier in the year course was in great shape but suffering from the summer heat. greens aerated a week ago and will need another week at least to be healed.

We usually love playing at Lake Presidential even if it is a little pricey at times.

The course was in awful condition this time. the tee boxes were all chewed up, the fairway had huge divots everywhere, and the greens looked like they were just aerated.

It just looked like the course hadn't had any upkeep in weeks.

Course condition was ok but the tee times were scheduled 5 minutes apart. For foursomes that just can’t work. On a weekend. So waiting every hole. Teed off at 7am and finished at 1145.

Aerated greens with NO warning! Asked the starter were the greens aerated like the practice green and he said no...well, all 18 were aerated and bumpy!! We were like the 7th or 8th group out and it took us over 5 hours, playing a 3some and then a twosome and waited every hole!!

Not the price tag!

Course layout is good. The fairways were beat with many unfilled divots. Greens were pretty quick but had been aerated Monday and Tuesday, we found out at the check-in where the gave everyone a $25 gift card. Still at $75/ 18 holes the course isn't worth the charge. The green surrounds and fairways were wet, more wet than they should be and the high spots are baked out and parched. The weeding and trimming at the edges could use some work and the fairways had fungus and dead patches throughout the 18 holes. Nice design, but disappointed in the lack of aeration disclosure of golf now and tee boxes which are in need of serious help.
