The Links at Lakehouse

It's been nearly 2 years since I played here...when it was Lake San Marcos CC...and the course is in so much better shape since then. They have new management now, thus the name change, and they have made a lot of improvements. The pride of ownership at St. Mark's shows and I'll definitely play there again.

Course is comming together nicely the greens were not too fast prefer faster greens had fun

Greens in good sharp. Fairways need work. Overall good day

New ownership. Most times I've played here I rarely start at my tee time. Usually 15-25 min behind. Frustrating. Green are good. Fairways ok.

Course in very good shape. New golf carts with attached club and ball cleaner are a nice addition. Also an attached ice chest. The restaurant attached to the club is also a very friendly place.

My son and I played St. Mark course recently. We didn't play too well on this day, but it wasn't due to the course. It's pretty well maintained with many tight and challenging holes. It winds through the neighborhood, so try not to hit the houses! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our visit and will come back later.

Jacked their rates by charging separately for cart. At $39 green fees and carts it is overpriced for the area. Fairways are scrub with lots of dirt patches. Greens just fair.

good course, tuff fast greens but receptive, staff friendly,let us good off early.

This course used to be really bad (so I'm told). I see vast improvements, and I play this course at least once every other week.

I'm bummed that a cart is $15 and has no GPS, but it's the only course I've found in Nth Cty that has a cooler and ball washer on board ... I've got GPS, so I'm good.

Back to the course ... the course is in repair ... they just had the junior world tourney there, so I'm sure it's bouncing back. But unlike most courses that need work, they mark the bad areas, allowing you to take relief to a better area (way to go). The rough is super thick, but that makes it challenging. The greens were unusually fast this last time, but I managed.

Staff is SO helpful and friendly. They actually greet you as they pass ... almost as if they know you ... the welcoming atmosphere is not typical on courses these days. Very nice

New ownership is making an effort to improve this course. Greens are pretty good; fairways are getting better... Play it before they go private again...

Good course my 11 year old son shot a 77 from the blue playing his first time on the course

Course was in above average condidtions. The greens were in great conditions. Overall the course was fun to play. Few challenging holes but for most part good course for average golfer

The course was fairly empty, but the round was still extremely slow. I teed off as a single. There was a single ahead of me (he was off the first green before I teed off on the first). By the third hole, he had caught the single in front of him and I had to wait. By the 4th hole I had to join them We waited to hit for about 10 minutes on each hole. There was a threesome in front of us, and an impossibly slow 4 some in front of them. There was nobody in front of the foursome and there weren't any marshals to speed them along.
St. Mark is a decent course, but if you pay the $59 you are grossly over paying. I paid $39 and that is probably a little on the high side for the condition of the course.

Booked Tee Times for 3 - got a decent not a great rate at all to play at 12:28 PM on Sunday. My buddy hurt his back Saturday night and couldn't play - when I asked to at least play as if I were a threesome - there were two of us - I was told no refund and if I want to play as a threesome - talk to Golf Now - that's them - not St Marks.

Sweet huh?

snack bar had no food when I finished 9 holes aprox.2:30 to 3;00 just chips and soda also teed off 25 to 30 min. past booked time, I think you put some groups in front of us

Good value for playing on a Sunday. The fairways need more grass. The greens were in pretty good shape. The bunkers need more sand. The carts are new.

I will definitely play this course again.

Greens are excellent, Fairways not so good we adjusted our lies when in fairway to overcome this problem

It's unfortunate that a course could be ruined by a simple problem but this one was. We purchased the deal from GolfNow at $19 per person for 3 people which per person was a $25 savings and we were happy. They charged us so much for the cart that we ended up not getting the deal and only saved a few bucks per person.

The issue is when I ask how much it would be for a cart the man looked at our tee time and thought for a while. Then he was like well...for that tee time it will be...

I asked him why it was so much and he said not to worry because the course is in incredible condition and well worth the price. WRONG!!!! I confronted him on the fact that we were being charged more for the cart than those who paid regular price. He looked around and dismissed my comment.

The course was in HORRIBLE condition with exception of the greens. The greens were in great condition.

On one hole if you happen to hit it in the fairway you have to move your ball because the entire fairway was under repair.(white circle)

To top it off on the 15th hole the cart path is horrible condition. It's broken all along the sides. My father took one step and twisted his ankle very badly because the side of the path crumbled under him.

It was an overall bad experience which on any other day may have been a great course. It's sad that a course will make it so that the deal you think you get on GolfNow is not really a deal at all.

One more thing. If you are looking to purchase snacks between 9 and 10th hole forget it. For whatever reason the same girl who drives the cart around is the one who works the snack bar. So unless she's refilling her cart no one is there at the snack bar. This was on a weekend by the way.

Has some challenging holes. Still needs work especially on the fairways. The greens could be a lot smoother. The course set up is really good. Hopefully the greens and fairways will be in better condition in the next few months. Some of the traps had really nice sand and others not so much Will try it again it in a few months. Beware rate on GolfNow is for walking, extra $15 for cart.

The course is improving every time I play since it has gone under new management. The only issue is the Resturant the service is weak at best. Very slow after ordering 30 minute for eggs over and toast. When that improves it will be very enjoyable all around.
