Flamingo Lakes Country Club in Pembroke Pines is one of the area's best-kept secrets. The layout is challenging but it is also very forgiving, making it accessible for players of any skill level. The course differs from other golf courses in the area due to its hilly terrain. Elevation changes are not common occurrences on Florida golf courses but you'll find several tricky uneven lies on this one. It also stands out for its superb conditions. Water hazards come into play on almost every hole, presenting some interesting risk-reward opportunities. There are also several strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. The layout requires thought and strategy in order to score well. Flamingo Lakes isn't long, instead it provides a quick and challenging round that can be played in less than four hours.

Painfully Slow

The course itself is a fun one, the conditions are good and the staff, both in the pro shops and Orlando, the starter, are great!

Sadly, it is consistently either overbooked or is plagued with slow golfers. I understand it was a Saturday but 5 hours and 15 minutes to complete a round is ridiculous. We literally waited to make every shot all day long. And, by all day, I mean all day. This was our longest round in quite some time.

Atrocious Pace of Play

We knew we were in for a long round when the first tee box was backed up 20+ minutes.

The course is pretty straightforward. Lots of short par 4s with the only thing slower than the greens was the pace of play. I think there was a course marshal but ineffective at getting things moving. We saw him once.

The course was in decent condition. Rough is st Augustine grass. Staff was very friendly.

Not bad for being a very last minute tee time on a Saturday.

Great condition

This course has really decent maintenance and is well kept. It’s the best course I’ve found in this price range. Greens are medium speed and fairways obvious . The rough is heavy like blue grass with thick blades and a real challenge if you end up in it. I really enjoyed this course and the pair of golfers I was paired up with were very friendly . I’ll be back , a lot !

Nice Course

Tried to get a quick round of 18 in before the start of the holiday chaos, unfortunately the rain did not cooperate with us. We got to the 6th hole and had to turn back due to lightning. My overall experience on the course itself was amazing. Nice fairways, decent tee boxes, and the greens are not as bad as orangebrook or county club Miami.

However I will say that the staff is questionable. Half of them seem new and getting used to things, but might give you some bad info. the others are miserable and rude. One older guy has a real bad attitude towards the younger groups..

In my experience I do Hope to come back and finish the whole 18. Some minor changes and this is easily a hidden gem.

A nice round cut short by rain

Even though we got rained out after nine holes with lightning nearby, I had a nice time with the guys that I was teamed up with.

The course is in very nice shape - the rough might be a little too high, but it wasn’t horrible.

The layout is designed for the average golfer, living in a retirement village. So playing from the blue or white tees isn’t daunting.

I would definitely like to play there again.

Too bad there’s no driving range.

I really like this course. Despite the relatively short yardage, the holes are interesting and present varied challenges. The course is in excellent condition, with healthy grass on all tee boxes, fairways, and greens. The rough is not too punitive and it's not hard to find balls which miss their mark. There is plenty of water, which adds to the ambience and makes one play strategically. The attendant in the shop was noticeably unfriendly, but professional and not a problem. There is no driving range but the chipping and putting area near the first tee is convenient. They do not allow walking, which disappointed me but isn't terribly surprising for South Florida.
