Enjoyed this course. Will be back. Good shape and the greens were very challenging. A lot of undulating. Course plays much tougher than it looks. Overall. Alot of fun. Shout out to starter Carl. Real nice guy and we really enjoyed talking to him. That can make all the difference. Helpful and friendly equals return customers. He should be recognized on his customer service!

Meh

Greens are slower than my great grandmother after thanksgiving dinner.

Starter doesn't patrol pace of play at all. Got stuck behind a group of boomers. 1:30 tee time, didn't finish until 6:15

It is a good local course for the price you pay. Just don't expect anything miraculous

Good Track

Overall good course, with it being early in the season and with some upgrades in the works it was worth it. GolfNow need to provide and option for the people who would like to walk.

Overall course condition

For this time of yr in NJ Lakewood is in good shape . Most of the fairways are in very good shape. a few of the greens were a little rough . If the staff can get the fishers out of the greens this course will be tops .

Early season round. No issues today with speed of play.

Greens are the difficult part of this course and were in good shape. The majority of holes are straight away with plenty of fairway and rough. Fairways seem like they will be good come spring, however don't expect much rough. Very spotty especially around the greens.

Bunkers were good, some seem out of place.

Good track if you are looking to tune up your game. No wow factor.

The three I was supposed to play with......

I like Lakewood a lot. I probably play there 5 to 6 times a year. Sometimes more. This was the first time I've ever been left behind by the 3 other golfers during the 11:10 am tee time. I get some guys want to play alone but maybe someone should give the 4th a heads up. Rude group of guys. Prob rudest I've ever come across at a course. Not even the common decency to say something. Starter seemed like he knew the guys and said they were all right. Guess not. Guys jumped out 10 min before the tee time. It'll be a bit before I'm over there again.
