too slow

We had to quit playing after 13 holes. the two foursomes ahead of us were extremely slow. the 4 women in front of us took 15 minutes to play each hole. Three and 1/2 hours to play 13 holes. We called the pro shop and they said they would send someone out to speed up the play, but nobody showed up. The course itself is OK. The carts are programmed to make you stay on the cart path, but the cart paths are extremely rough.

Club Stolen

I had a 56 Degree Hybrid Wedge (Dune) stolen out of my bag and no one helped me. There was a group behind me that included a person that works the front desk. Very suspicious, and nothing was done.

The Links at the Lakehouse

Fun course. The greens are pretty good, decent pace, and hold shots pretty well (there are some rough areas on some of the greens…fungus?). The fairways are good, where they are good, but the course has some serious drainage issues (and has for years). Layout is okay, some good holes, and a couple of funky ones. This is a relatively easy course, only a couple of tougher holes (yes, I’m speaking to you #12….one of the toughest par 5’s I’ve ever played). Very friendly staff, and a great value for the $$.

Accident on course, no assistance

Accident occurred due to course negligence. No one was able to help from the course. Only the restaurant manager came out to see what happened and offered an ice bag. No phone numbers taken no assistance to any kind of hospital. Left to go to urgent care than emergency room by our selves to take cat scans and take care of injuries to face and hand

Very slow pace

Pace is very slow. I tried to play through as a single and thought I would eventually hit a gap, but after playing through 4 groups there was no gap. I even tried skipping a hole after the 4th group but there was still a 2 group queue ahead of them. I think it’s just over booked.

Lakehouse effect

I only have one complaint about this course. The cart is programmed to not let you drive on the fairway and the "no carts" signs are too far back from the green. On #9 if I recall correctly, the signs are 100 yds from the green. If you are in the "no go zone", there is a lot of unnessary walking and time wasted. One other minor complaint is the cart paths are extremely rough. If you drive on them, your back will hurt later. If you don't drive on them, the cart will stop.

Great Round

I had a great round. Steve, at the front desk, was very hospitable and kind. The only problem was that I was paired with a young golfer who became very slow on the back nine. I believe it was because he had too much alcohol. He had trouble hitting the ball and took too much time to play. My round was not as enjoyable because of this distraction. There was a foursome ahead of the two of us that we failed to keep up with.

Excellent Course, Even Better Staff

I haven't played this course in about 2 years when it was still St. Mark, and holy cow what a transformation! The newly renovated space looks very sleek.

Chris and Luis in the Pro Shop were extremely friendly and professional, and the course conditions were excellent. Pace of play was great, and after 18 holes we had dinner at the restaurant. The food was as good as always; I had the birria tacos for the first time and they are my new go-to. And the drinks were poured very generously.

Just an overall great vibe all throughout this golf course. I will definitely be returning as soon as possible!
