About
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.

Lochmere review
Greens in excellent shape- looks like most everybody is repairing marks- wish I could say same for fairway divots
Overall excellent value for the price I ended up paying- less than $35 including cart
Nice course layout.
Course has challenging features. Good pace of play with variety of pars.
Not great after a rain
Good course that is in good shape. Just doesn’t drain well post the rain.
Great Greens
The greens are immaculate! In fact, the fairways are also great. Rough is brutal. Definitely recommend this course.

Never play this course after it rains, it's a swamp and no fun, but when dry it is a great course to play.
Im officially just done here
The staff is awful and unprofessional EVERY single time. Im just tired of the miserable experience from people that clearly hate their jobs and just want to go home. Today we had to call in after 5 holes because a kid with a blower followed us every single shot, not turning the blower off including all tee shots and even rode right in front of our shots pretty much ruining the first half of the round. Then we had to call in 10 times to try and order food to grab at the turn, only to be snapped at when someone finally answered the phone. My last time up here the high school girl working in the pro shop pointlessly argued with me about how much my green fees cost to calculate a rain check, even after I showed her the charge on my credit card. Goodbye Lochmere. Your staff sucks, your range mats suck, and theres 30 other courses in the triangle
Great course but needs to spread out the tee times
Just finished a great rounds. Only critique is that they try to cram too many people on the course. We played a round in 4 hrs and 2 min but still felt pushed. They have tee times every 6 min and was asked by the marshal to pick up pace. In all my years golfing I think this was the quickest round I’ve ever played 18 holes in and were still being asked to pick it up. 6 min gap is not enough for tee times and constantly felt like people were wanting to hit into us. Course was in great condition but they need to space their tee times out better as we really had a hard time enjoying ourselves when we felt so much pressure to keep up pace of play when we were well ahead or a typical pace.
