A very good layout being persecuted by the Management
Great layout... Used to be a course one would love to play. Except for the greens, this course has not been maintained at all. The cart paths where they appear, are in shambles. The poorly maintained rough is safer than the cart paths. The signs say drive carts on the rough! A few bridges on a creek that runs across the course look very unsafe. This course if not repaired should be shut down!
Poor service & conditions
Service was rude from the get-go. Waited for pro shop guy to check me in while he was taking a smoke break and then told us to tee-off when we were fully aware of our tee time (course was empty)...all the while my partner was waiting to purchase drinks from "carry-out" and no one assisted after ringing the bell for several minutes so he eventually left. The condition of the course indicates that ley have let it deteriorate. Fairways were beat up and it doesn't look like they spray for weeds anywhere. My partner stepped in a 2 foot crater hole just off the 12th green and sprained his ankle. For the price, course and service should be much better.
We apologize for the rude service you experienced at our pro shop and for the lack of assistance at the carry-out. We take your feedback seriously and will address these issues with our staff. Thank you for bringing the condition of the course to our attention, we will work on improving it. Thank you for leaving a review.

Rude
Got out Saturday at 6:30 am. Groups ahead of us got out early. On the 4th hole ranger told us to pick up the pace , that we weren’t on the group that started a half hour earlier. 4some behind us was a hole and a half behind us. Looked at the time and we were on pause for a 4 hour round. Apparently that wasn’t good enough . Very rude and ignorant staff . Play there every year for my birthday golf round. Doubt I’ll ever go back !!!

Long hard fun course
I played the senior tees at just under 6200 yards the white tees are 6700. Most second or third shots are up hill . So trying to hit these greens with hybrids or long irons is tough. I break 80 on most courses and was happy with an 89 here. It’s so tough! Greens are ok respective but on the slow side. Tee boxes most raised as are the greens fairways were ok grass i little long you really need some roll here. It was designed with help from Sam Snead so you can imagine the tough bends and uphill shots. If it was a bit more manicured you could have a pro tournament here not kindling you have to try it it will humble you lol
Interesting Course, Rough rough
We play this course almost every summer. Layout is great, big, open, and very scenic. We noticed the maintenance lacking this summer. Overgrown rough which was too long, but also had a lot of clover growing so it was really hard to find your ball. I lost a couple balls that day that were simply in the rough a couple yards away from the fairway. There were patches of fairway and greens that were bare, but not many spots. Some of the fairway bunkers were mud pits, but all the ones around the greens were in good shape. Just wish it was better maintained.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our course. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the maintenance during your visit this summer. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we work to improve the overall condition of the course.
Great layout
The course has been outstanding for so long and is now looking a little beat up. Hopefully they can make it beautiful again.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize if the current condition of the course has fallen short of your expectations. We appreciate your loyalty and will make every effort to restore its beauty.
Best value beautiful course
Beautiful course with mature trees all around. Hilly terrain and challenging greens make this a very challenging but fair course.
Returned to play after 50 years
It was probably in the 1970's, the last time I played this course. I don't believe the course has changed much in that time with some holes making it a challenge to reach the hole. Enjoyed the layout and the staff was very friendly. Google maps tried to guide me in the maintenance entrance when I arrived at the course, but I was able to correct that. Recommend playing here and use the golf now rate.
Great course layout and lots of tee choices
Was waiting 3 years to play this course after attending a wedding at the clubhouse in 2019. The golf now rate made it more affordable and the course was not crowded. We did have one slight problem with our golf cart at the 14th hole and the cart battery died. The staff at the course were very efficient and got us playing again in about 10 minutes with a replacement golf cart.

Big Ruin...
This course should be closed or sold. It's a dump, no excuse for it's horrendous shape. Nothing even remotely redeeming about it. It's an embarrassment to golf, the City of Lockport and golfers everywhere. A dead raccoon laying in the fairway, fungus on every fairway, brown spots, hard pan, and there is no maintenance. Under no circumstance should this course be allowed to take anyone's money. They should pay you to play here. It's a disgusting place.
