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.

Great Course, but Busy
You wouldn't expect the scores to be as busy as it is a Wednesday, especially with Covid. But, it's in great condition. Only downside is they still don't open the grill until Thursday and the course was as busy as any weekend. Overall, got to come see the place.
super fun
Great course for the price. At 7 dollars over what we spent at knights play this course felt like a steal. No too difficult, the fairways are typically forgiving. Each cart came with a Bluetooth speaker. There was a range. I'll surely be returning.
Waste of time
If you plan on wanting to play a 5+ hour round for $50+ dollars then be my guest. This place is constantly overbooked and they don’t understand that it takes more than 6 minutes to play a hole. You are waiting at every tee box for the next hole and the conditions aren’t even that good. Always has some swampy areas and tee boxes aren’t in the best condition. If they didn’t overbook it, it could be worth playing but morning tee times are too expensive. Way over priced for what you get, it would be worth driving a little further for a better experience since this is the only course in Cary.
Always a fun course
Course was in good condition. Fun layout with plenty of hazards and streams guarding the pins. Very short course but well laid out.
A little damp. But greens excellent.
Nice day. Wore my water proof shoes.. greens beautiful.
Nice. Round!
These folks are doing everything to keep their social distancing easy. Cart was sanitized, other golfers were aware and courteous.. course was in nice shape and when a few weeks go by should be great!
Driving by range and putting area are nice. Yes
While it was a sunny day and not that much rain very recently, the entire course was standing water. Truly, it should have been closed until it could dry out just a little more. I'm not a complainer normally but it wasn't a playable situation. Greens however were in great condition especially for winter.
I’ll wait till spring
What do you say about a 5+ hour round hitting off mud?
Swampland
Course should never have opened until it drained. Only warning given was “Cartpath only” but even pull carts and feet were leaving deep ruts and marks. Lost three balls in the fairway to mud and casual water. Forward tees (red and gold) were ALL casual water and slick mud.
Eight holes were more than enough to handle. Didn’t even ask for rain check as I plan never to return
Nice Course. Old School. Tree Lined.
I played on 2/26 and it was a day I should of stayed home. It was a mud fast out there. Courses this time of year are like that. This course is a great track and enjoy playing there quite often. Hospitality is always friendly. Food/Snack Bar/Pro Shop is fantastic. This is a solid 4 star course across the whole spectrum of qualities a golfers looking for.
Needs to dry out
I love Lochmere. I play there a lot (and live just a couple of minutes away), but the extreme rain and now the snowmelt of the past couple of weeks have made the course unplayable. The greens are fine -- I really don't know how they manage that -- but the mud in the fairways is now so deep that it's a challenge to keep your shoes on. Finding a dry place to take relief is almost impossible. None of this is the fault of the staff, and I'll definitely be back. But right at the moment, the course desperately needs a week without rain.
