Good bang for your buck

Tee times during the afternoon on weekdays are only $15 with a cart. The overall conditions are decent with a nice layout through a subdivision.

Historic course

Lincoln Oaks is a good course, with numerous challenging holes. Requires good course management of shot selection. A few holes have poor drainage after heavy rain. When the course is dry. It's a fun place to test your golf expertise.

Nice course

staff very friendly course was in good condition for this time of year group in front of us was playing cart path only when it was 90 degree I told them to speed them up then they drove on the fairway for the par threes parked the cart in front of the green they should have left us playthrough we were waiting all the time LEARN some golf etiquette don't pull in front of the green especially on a par 3 and pull up as close to the next hole as you can
