Lakewood Country Club

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.

Some of the greens are small. Nice course will play again.

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.

Computer glitch greatly limited our experience. No thanks, Golf Now.

This is a really nice Executive style course. It is great to hit clubs I don’t often use. The staff was very friendly, the course especially the greens were nice and the pace of play was decent. I am looking forward to playing it again. There aren’t many amenities so that is why I put a low grade there. They do have ice and water, just bring a cup.

We had a really nice experience.

Thank you!

The staff was very welcoming and helpful. We played 9 holes rather quickly. We started in the back 9. The first few par 3s had very small greens that made it challenging. The course has a nice layout. The greens were in good condition.

This is a nice place to hit a lot of short game shots. We really enjoyed the day.

We started on time, but waited on every hole which we expected….but, when we made the turn they added two groups in front of us on the 10th hole! While a foursome did quit after 9, they added two groups in front of us! This has happened before! Very unfair of us playing 18 as we had already been waiting each hole. Someone from our group called the pro shop, no one answered, she left a message and no response back! Don’t start groups on 10 when

You are already packed!!!!!!
