This course offers some unique features.
This course is very playable and quite pretty. There is adequate variety:water, fescue, elevation, narrow approaches. It's a challenging, but doable walk...which is my favourite feature.
Kidney Shaker!
Didn't matter if I was on the paths or fairways, the ride in the cart felt like an old wooden rollercoaster. Paved paths are broken and full of frost heaves, and the rest of the course isn't any better. Ruined the entire round.
3 employees behind the counter. 1 serving, other 2 leaning on back counter talking while people are waiting in line. eventually, one comes to the other till to offer assistance.
Booking came with a range bucket. I was a bit late getting there, so when they gave the range token they asked if I'd be using it. I said I could use it anytime. Their reply, was that they'd prefer I didn't leave the course with the token, because they cost $1 to replace... but at no time did they offer a rain check for it.
I kept the token.
Already gave it to somebody else.
Won't be back.
The golf course is great - it's everything else that requires attention
I love LakeRidge and play there quite often - I live very near by
The golf course is great - and is always in awesome condition
- but the cart paths are horrendous - id rather have a four wheeler
on this course -- the staff is average at best -- there are 2 fairway bunkers on #16 that haven't had sand in them for 2 years now -- if they're not gonna bunkers, then fill them in --
I feel like I care about LakeRidge more than the owners do !?!?
Challenging but fair.
This course is challenging and plays long. But a descent score can be achieved.
Good course! Didn't let me use my raincheck though!
the course is in decent shape. some areas need work. not sure why a rain check given to me during a round booked through golfnow couldn't be used during the next round booked the same way. disappointing as me and my friend drove a long way to play here.
Decent Track
I've played this course before and it's always in decent shape. I find its full rate to be a bit on the pricey side but I usually enjoy the layout and as a single in the morning I was able to fly around in 3 hrs walking so can't complain about that.
There are better options our there...
I'm not a fan of writing bad reviews but would like to share about this experience.
Lakeridge Links apparently has a policy different from the rest of the world of golf.
They don't have a starter and have a policy on the first tee box to "wait until the group ahead of you is putting or finishes putting before tee'ing off"
I am not aware of this rule in the game of golf and decided to call the pro shop to inquire. I CALMLY asked the gentleman on the phone, was not rude, did not use any foul language or anything.
Just asked the simple question of why the 4 some at the tee box is not tee'ing off? there are 8 people waiting, the group ahead of them is putting and these 4 are just standing there talking and laughing.
His response was rude, snappy and "thats the way we do things here" attitude.
"we wait for the group ahead of you to finish so they don't bottle up later"
Well sir. your theory doesn't work! I still waited at more than just a few holes inside the 18 and there's no excuse to be rude to your guests!
Because I booked through GolfNow, I was stuck there and played through the round. Although, any other circumstance, I would have instantly got my money back and left the course.
I DO NOT recommend this course to anyone under an 18 handicap. It is a great course for beginners and for the type of people who enjoy the game and THINK they can play. Cheers.
Very well layed out course
Nicely designed course and in good condition. Staff were friendly and helpful. We had a very good time playing this course for the first time
Course is in great shape and very playable.
I have always liked this course but don't play it very often because I find it to be too pricey. Good deal on Golfnow though. A couple of the par three greens were a little beat up but overall the course was in great shape. The greens are fast and undulating which presents a good challenge.
well maintained
I found that they have pretty fast greens. Fairways are well groomed.
Way too slow
Course is in good shape however, pace of play is slow with Marshalls driving around and waving, as if they are actually doing something. Five hours is too long to play a round on a Thursday afternoon. Won't be returning
Good Course
It was a good course. The front 9 is a little too open, but the back 9 makes up for it. I had fun and the it's good value for the money.
Probably wouldn't be my first choice next time I'm on golfnow.com, but I would definitely consider going back.
Not worth the money
Greens were in nice shape & lightning fast for early season.
The fairways just ok. Off the fairway terrible. Patchy and many bald spots. You can tell they are not spending on the course.
$80 with a cart is not worth it at all. Could be a good track but not yet there. Watson's Glen or Deer Creek are much nicer in the same price range.
Cheers
Course is fine, pace of play not so good
After 4 1/2 hours still had 4 holes to play and left. Playing partners couldn't hit the ball (10-15 shots per hole) and even if they could have - there were groups in front of us. Frustrating round.
Lakeridge is steadily slipping
After arriving for our tee time 25 minutes before our scheduled time, we were then forced to wait for another 45 minutes to accommodate a group of 15 players who had arrived late for their tee time. As we were only 3, the starter and the clubhouse should have communicated to each other and let our group get out first. We were held back all day by the hackery going on in front of us, including a 5some that the starter let out, who after playing the 1st, then split into a 2some and a 3some. Did not see a marshal all day. Got a good deal on GolfNow but it was not worth it when you consider the poor service and no control of the course.
set in the country, this course has beautiful scenery.
The course was wet the day we played - cart path only. The weather was good for November which made for an enjoyable round at Lakeridge Links.
