Lincoln - Local Course

Surprised at how nice the course condition was. Greens were slow but overall fun to play. A bit more attention and this place could be a top course.

Greens punched while playing

Had Golfpass documented the hot deal was due to aeration, I would not have booked. It was a misrepresentation and I was told at time of checking, 30 mins prior to tee time. Too late to cancel and go elsewhere.

I’m disappointed - the greens were all sand, half poorly put together temps.

Very dissatisfying.

Aeration

Went to this course my first time and all the greens had been just aerated making the putting greens impossible to get a good clean put. Things like this should be disclosed at the time of purchase or least the cost to play should be cut in half

Just Horrible

The course is always in lousy condition. They need to pump some money into it like they did to Harding golf course. The city is missing the boat by not fixing the golf course up.

Worst staff EVER!!!!!!

The man that’s works in the shop is AWFUL!!! So rude and douchey!!

Literally we played there 2 days in a row and everyone we talked to said the same thing! Locals and visitors alike! He really needs to go!!!!

The course is great but there are no amenities. No clubhouse. No where to sit and snack. There’s a walk up snack bar window.

We went back in the afternoon and the gentleman in the shop at that time was great!!

Always a beautiful day at Lincoln Park GC!

Lance Wong and the staff at LPGC are always wonderful, accommodating and welcoming, the course is in great condition with the City Junior championship coming up! Such a great experience for so many young golfers to play and compete, even in a foggy day the beautiful views and clean fresh air and pace of play can’t be beat! If you don’t have great memories on this course you really should come multiple times and make some! The greens are running fast and it’s such a great walk and value! I highly recommend it and can’t wait to play there again!

A great practice course

Lincoln Park offers a very unique layout featuring slope, elevation changes, blind shots and varying atmospheric conditions.

Course conditions vary greatly and one can be rewarded with a poor lie from a great shot. It is a wonderful course to consider a variety of strategies.

Some incredibly beautiful views await, whether it be sunny or foggy!

Perfect weather
Walked

Total body workout.

Unless you are under the age of 50 I would not recommend this course. You could try to ride a cart instead. The course is situated in a beautiful scenery overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. You also pass through the Legion of Honor. Having said that, I have never been so tired and exhausted from pushing a golf cart.

Please be aware there are many MANY steep hills. Rent a motorized cart if you are over 50 like me.

Good value course. Tough walk and expensive carts tho.

Lincoln park golf course offers interesting holes of beautiful golf. The value is good based on SF pricing for walking and shared carts which are nearly a must due to poor/outdated layout. Great views and good golf accessible to everyone. Average quality of upkeep.

Dog Track

Dog Track. Terrible conditions, no place to get food or drinks, car path only, unplayable lies all over course, not even a practice putting green. Holes not even marked properly. I got lost walking alone from hole to hole. People breaking into cars in the parking lot. The worst golf course I have ever played hands down.
