Lakes Golf Course at Laura Walker State Park

Great layout and good conditions. However, if you book through GolfNow for this course, you will be treated as a second class person. In their words, they have “special guidelines” for golfers who buy “cheap”golf.

Love playing this course, it’s a real fun layout, a lot of risk/reward holes, measures only 6600 yards from the tips but plays pretty long. Good challenge, have played the white tees before and you can be real aggressive. Great course for any skill level. Only complaints today is that the range was closed and it appeared that they’d overseeded tee boxes and haven’t mowed them in over a week (I played last weekend as well) so on the par 3’s your tee shot was like hitting out of the rough.

Beautiful, well kept State golf course. Fairways are manicured and the greens are moderately fast. The staff is wonderful! The customer service and southern hospitality is top notch. The pro shop is well stocked with food ( hotdogs, chips, a variety of other snacks , drinks and beer) and almost any golf related item you would need. There are some challenging holes but all levels of golfer will enjoy this course.

I've had the opportunity to play this course several times. The staff is always friendly and inviting. The course is challenging yet fun for the novice golfer. The course was in excellent condition the greens were fast. The pro shop is well stocked and the gentlemen in the pro shop get an A+ for customer service.

I've been reading the great reviews about this course for 5 years and finally got to play it. It is an excellent layout and the condition is also excellent with the exception of the bunkers. They have had a LOT of rain and most of the bunkers are washed out or have become ponds. The greens and fairways are excellent despite the rain. I hope I can play again sooner than 5 years from now!!!

Course is in great condition. Greens roll really well.

I havent played this course in over 10 years other than the aand traps this course was in excellent shape will differently be back

Laura Walker is always a fun course. If you are in the fairway you can shoot a good number. The greens roll true - a little slow, but true. The traps are gone- they are working on them, but stay out if the trap and you won't have to worry about it. Love this course.

The course is great, and very reasonably priced on golf now. The only thing that is in the works is some of the greens in small areas, and some of the sand traps have water in them. Other than that the course is a great place to play.

We play this course several times a month and the Fairways and Greens are getting better each time we play!

Greens are almost perfect. A+

Fairways are in great shape. A+

The rough could be deeper...but you couldn't find your ball without a fore caddy. B+

But the bunkers are pits without any sand in them. F-

Doesn't excuse the golfers who don't fill their divots in the fairways...come on Guys!!!

The story is sometime in 2026 the State of Georgia will approve the contract for the contractor to redo the bunkers.

Some of the greens need a lot of work, bumpy and grass missing

Great layout, friendly staff, only thing needs work is the sand bunkers.... great place to play.

Great day on a good course.

Beginners will love it and more established players can work on there game. Not many hazards. The bunkers need a lot of work and the course will tell you that, when you check in

Great layout staff was very friendly let us move up our time to beat the rain have been there before will return

Greens were in great shape.

Fairways are greening up.

Rough areas are getting thick.

Sand traps need lots of work.

Waste areas really need some attention.

Pro shop is really loaded with all kinds of shirts, hats, balls & even a good selection of shoes.

9 & 18 are two fine finishing holes.

We holiday on Saint Simons Island every year, golf almost every day and always make it a point to play a few of our rounds at LSW. The course is well laid out, generally not overly busy and not without its challenges. For this round, we were a twosome following a foursome but the pace of play was still very good ... just over 3 1/2 hours for 18. The course is in quite good shape for this time of year and the greens have improved significantly over how they were a couple of years ago. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Course was in great shape and the greens rolled very well. Was a bit crowded, but not to bad for early spring in South Georgia. Always have enjoyed the lay-out because the front and back nine have two different personalities. Fun course!!
