Located near the banks of Swift Creek, Lochmere Golf Club has plenty of water incorporated into the layout, coming into play on nearly every hole. The golf course stretches across a lush, gently rolling landscape sprinkled with mature trees and ponds. The terrain showcases the best in Triangle golf. At just over 6,600 yards it is not particularly long, but it provides plenty of challenges. It is a tight course that will test your accuracy with narrow fairways lined with trees. The small greens that are heavily protected by well placed bunkers demand thoughtful strategy and pinpoint control. The golf course offers a fair challenge but it is still accessible for beginners, especially from the forward tees. Lochmere G.C. is a favorite among Cary locals, both for its enjoyable design and its affordable rates.

Bunkers and greens in great shape

Course is well-maintained with velcro greens and fluffy bunker sand. Plays a bit short and doesn't drain well after heavy rains. Very solid value for this region with helpful staff.

Beautiful course

Lochmere isn’t a particularly long course but it’s challenging. Well manicured for a public course.

Par 3 11th hole

The tee box needs a lot of work. More bare spots than grass and temp turf mats to hit off.

Good course

Good for a local course. 1 tee box under repair. Grounds were somewhat dry and hard, which is unusal for Lochmere, which tends to be soft. Greens are in good shape. The pace of play was pretty good compared to my previous times.
