About
Lake Wales Country Club boasts a classic Donald Ross design that players of all skill level will enjoy. Built in the 1920s, the golf course has a different look and feel than most modern courses. Rather than exaggerated hazards and dramatic contouring, the layout blends seamlessly into the natural landscape. The routing of each hole was determined by the existing contours. Like many of Ross' designs, the phrase "hard par, easy bogey" holds true here. The layout features small greens with crown centers that are sloped back to front. Rough borders the fairways and the wide-openness of the course means that wind will often be a factor. Lake Wales C.C. is a challenging but straightforward golf course. There are no trick holes but there are several holes that will make you think.

Rain trees AWSOME! Photo submitted by recon68 on 10/05/2014
Weeds and invasive grasses in fairways, greens tee boxes. Greens and collars are too slow. Needs TLC. Not much grass in fairways.
Great course in excellent shape
I got paired up with one of the course owners and two of his friends on Sunday. Wow, great players they are! Par and sub par. Way to go guys great round.. Course is in very nice shape, no mush or water anywhere greens very nice and true. Fairways good, tee boxes OK. Great design and layout this course is just plain nice. Good value on golf now. Will be playing again
Was a nice course
Greens were nice, fairways very thin and a lot of bare spots. Used to be one of my go to courses, not to much anymore.
Good value
Course is a good layout, greens in good shape, tee boxes could use some attention but good value.
Lake Wales
This is a decent course with a fairly wide open layout. Fairways were average as were the tee decks and the greens were pretty good but slow. If booking directly with the course the rates are higher and in my opinion you can get better value for your dollar at other courses in the area.
As far as I could determine COVID-19 protocols were non-existent. Pro shop staff did not have masks nor did the back-office staff moving the carts to the pickup spot and there were no separators in the carts that I saw. I did not see sanitizer anywhere. On the course, ball washers were available, rakes were in bunkers and no adjustments were made to the flag/cup area to reduce touch points. If I had known this I would have avoided the course.
course has lost alot of its luster. pretty scruffy conditions.
Very enjoyable layout
Would have loved to play the course on a sunny day, unfortunately we played the last 10 holes in the pesky rain. Greens were great compared to the previous courses I recently played !
Really enjoyed the layout
Just unfortunate weather the last 10 holes, rain
Will enjoy it in the future on a sunny day !
Getting better
Service here is excellent. Course was not bad at all. Greens roll ok and the fairways are pretty good. Yes there are weeds but still pretty decent. I’ll go back.
