Lakewood Country Club of Naples sprawls across 52 lush acres that is home to an abundance of wildlife, including several different bird species. Located just outside of downtown Naples, Marco Island is just a few minutes away. The golf course snakes around four freshwater lakes, the sparkling waters contrasting beautifully with the native trees and shrubs that border the fairways and greens. The par-60 course is ideal for beginners, offering a round with a conveniently quick pace of play that will still put your short game skills to the test. Making putts is particularly challenging. Most of Lakewood Country Club of Naples's greens are elevated and you'll encounter water on 14 holes. There are also 28 bunkers strategically placed throughout. Every hole has a risk-reward scenario in play, which keeps the low handicappers happy but also gives new golfers the confidence to tackle the golf course without the fear that it's too much to handle.

Good time

This course is a little gem. The people are so friendly, the lay out is great for hitting different clubs. The course conditions are fine in most spots. There aren’t any real amenities other than ice and water. Bring your own cup! Carts are nice.

We enjoyed our day and we will go back.

Pleasant Round

Play was a little slow as there was quite a crowd. The Staff is very friendly and will do all they can to help you.

Very small Pro Shop with no other amenities as far as dining or drinks or locker rooms per se if that is what you're looking for. Not a full size course though it can be challenging for the average golfer, low handicaps probably will not find it so.

Worth the money

Great little Par 3 course. Course is short but, don’t be fooled the small greens will challenge your putting skills. There are plenty of sand traps and water down one side or the other of most holes. Only down side is there is not much of a pro shop and no food or beverage service.

Is this even a real golf course?

Played at 2:45pm on a Saturday, the course was almost empty, which is was a good thing. Pace of play was not a problem, got a full 18 in with lots of sunlight to spare.

I wasn't shocked at how short the course was as I was made aware prior to booking. The biggest concern was the size of the greens. Playing par 3 holes from 110 to 133 yards with greens smaller than a bachelor apartment was a comical, childish. This course has several holes (especially on the back nine) that belong in a city park surrounded by monkey bars, a basketball court and teeter totters. I've played mini-putt courses with greens bigger than these things. It's not like the property doesn't have the space for a proper sized green. It's mind boggling to think that anyone would get an executive golf course experience with such terribly designed greens. Perhaps new golfers wouldn't know the difference, perhaps junior golfers wouldn't care but as someone who has golfed for many years, I felt this course has too many holes that resemble what someone would cram into their backyard if they had the money. Also, it's strange that some holes on the front had "adult", normal greens, but then other holes are the complete opposite. Golf courses should be designed with fluidity and flow, consistency in mind. Who knows....may this course was designed on a smart phone for a grade 9 project. If you're looking for a real game of golf, go elsewhere. If you're looking for a public space, like a local park to bang around ball, this may suit your needs. But be careful as you may not get what you pay for as this is NOT A STANDARD DESIGN even for an executive course. Did I mention that the last employee on the property approached us on the 18th fairway telling us to hurry up because he "should have been home by now". This was around 6pm on a clear, blue skied sunny Saturday. We paid for 18 holes, there was plenty of sky remaining and we were well ahead of pace. We finished up with no issue. Lastly, there are zero amenities on the golf course. Pack your sandwiches, pack your drinks, and hope that the clubhouse isn't locked up too early or else you'll be having to use a shrub as your urinal. We still made the best of it, and luckily I was with my older parents and my new golfer partner. If I was there with my golfing crew, the return on the investment just isn't justifiable.
