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.

Course in bad condition
Played course while visiting Raleigh. Based on rating and reviews thought this would be a nice course. Apparently area must have had lots of rain, as the fairways and entire course was wet, muddy... definitely not worth the money we paid to play. Greens were in good shape, and fast. I would suggest looking elsewhere until weather get's better.
NC weather
No secret this has been the wettest winter in a while, the course was very soggy but that was expected. The course still played alright, and the greens are looking tight shouts to the to the crew out there. The staff was super friendly. Also, if you like brats you would be doing yourself a disservice by not getting one. I’ll be coming back for sure. Hit it hard!
Tee times should be honored. Groups of 4 should not be allowed to “squeeze in after 2pm”. It should not take 3.5 hours to play 9 holes.
Soggy course
Be aware that this course does not drain. The fairways and tee boxes are well after any rains. The greens and bunkers are in good shape but the fairways are almost unplayable.
Solid course for a great price
Played after an unusually cold and wet week in February. The course was definitely soggy, but the greens were in great shape given the conditions. Not a terribly challenging course, but awry shots can get you in trouble very easily. There’s a good bit of water that comes into play and makes you think through shots.
Too muddy for me
The course was very muddy. It was cart path only, and it was clear from tire tracks that people had violated that rule, which exacerbated the problem.
WET!!
The drainage on this course is not good. Always wet. Especially on the back 9.
Too wet
They need to suspend play until the ground has tightened / dried. It was a swamp. Nearly fell down on a couple of swings in the tee box. Greens and bunkers were in great shape, just needed hip waders to get there. Good course and in good shape mid summer. But far too wet to be very enjoyable right now.
Enjoyable day on very wet course.
Course was extremely wet/soggy with some fairways being so wet it was difficult to get to your ball. Greens are in fantastic shape! For some reason they removed the 150 yard markers from the middle of the fairways which I really do not. So PLEASE put them back.
