Lincoln Oaks

Moderately priced course that offers good variety of holes. It has rolling hills, but is pretty open with not a ton of trees, so it is a forgiving course. We played on a day that started out pretty cold, so there was not alot of people out, the the pace of play was great. I guess my biggest complaint there were the amenities. Although they have an indoor bar and some tables and chairs, for some reason they have closed their indoor grill for the year, so I couldn't so much as a hot dog, which makes no sense to me. Other than that, it is a good value for the money.

Spend a little money on the staff

Course was in really good condition. Needs a ranger that would actually do his job. 6.5 hours for 18 holes is way to long. Course has a lot of potential.

The course was much nicer than I expected and the staff was extremely nice. Only complaint is I couldn’t find distance markers. I’ll definitely be coming back

No Rush

It was a beautiful day for golf. Some spots on some the fairways were wet. Otherwise a good day, but don't be in a rush, seniors like this course.

General Manager

We came here and golfed a 3 sum. We were told last hole so we went to the next hole to finish. Mind you.. it was only 6:55pm. It stays light out until about 745. Ranger (general manager) came by again and screamed at me, my girlfriend and our third person and proceeded to cuss and scream at us when there were people golfing in front of us. That is not ohkay. I will never go back here ever again. For a general manager to treat customers like that is absurd. Watched him scream at the pair behind us too. I paid for 18 holes. All I was able to get in was 7.... people in front of us were very very slow. No offer of raincheck or voucher. Just get screamed and cussed at by a general manager.
