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.

What happened to this course?

A couple of years ago this course was pristine and rangers kept the pace going. Right now the greens are an absolute mess, not just because players aren't fixing their ball marks but the course management isn't doing so either. On #8 there was a huge ball mark going the other way, apparently someone was firing off full shots from across the lake in their free time. It leaves almost no consistency in the speed of any green, and your ball bumps around as it rolls.

Rangers weren't out on the course keeping things moving. The group in front of us was playing with 5 guys somehow, but we couldn't tell if they were waiting on anyone in front of them. Once we got the ranger to check and we played through, there was absolutely no one in front of them. Front was 2h 40m, back was 1h 30m.

It's still a challenging and fun layout, and fortunately their twilight starts at 1pm, so we only played $59. But I'd rather play Enterprise for that price for the greens alone.

Nice course...sometimes

I played a month ago and conditions were top notch. Today the greens were atrocious with tons of ball marks left unrepaired. White tee boxes were beat up and mostly sand with little grass on some.

Mediocre

It’s not worth 60 bucks or even 40, greens and fairways have more divots than i’ve ever seen. For the land it’s on and the appearance of the clubhouse it should be a million times better. And It’s like the maintenance crew likes getting in peoples way. They just ride around causing noise. Get a competent maintenance crew and this can be a top course. Pretty disappointed TBH.

Hadn’t played this course in years. Very nice layout. White tee boxes were very chewed up, and many scuff and ball marks on all greens.

decent golf outing

Very good layout. Lights of unrepaired divots in fairways and tees. The cart had no sand so we couldn't fill our divots. No ball washers or water stations on course-- this is ridiculous. Especially considering it is summer. I would only play here if I got the discount. Course isn't worth the " regular " price considering all I mentioned above. Tons, I mean tons of ball marks on greens also. Although I blame the golfers for not repairing ball marks on greens .

Very friendly staff

Ground Crew Courtesy

Both times I played, ground crews did not yield right of way to players. Did not pause activities on the green to allow players to play through.

Only OK

After years of hearing golfers rave about this course, I was disappointed. Course has clearly seen better days. Fairways were chopped up, tee boxes in poor shape. Maintenance workers everywhere, interrupting play, vehicles on the greens. I could go on, but I won't.

A perfect round is ruined

Condition is fair, some tee boxes have no grass, there are many unfixed divots on the fairways and ball marks on many greens.. Used to play this course very often. However, have not played it for about 2 years because last time I played, staff was rude and highly unprofessional. All staff is new now, but still don't know what they are doing (see below) and there was no marshal to keep the play moving. Today they started on #10, first 9 were great, but all of a sudden a threesome started pushing me hard on hole #1 (for me #10). I had no choice but ask them to join me on hole #3 (12 for me), but tranquility, fun and concentration were all gone. The current staff don't know what they are doing or the course was double booked. No matter which one is true, I'm not going to play this course ever again and will not recommend it to anyone.
