Better this round..
Second time on this course and it was in better shape this time around.
Great public course
Well maintained public course with very kind staff. Close to camping and fishing at the state park and sightseeing at swamp park if you want to make a mini vacation.
Having fun in south Ga.
Course was in its typical good shape but lately have noticed some type of weed activity on the greens guess its just the time of year still overall great place to have date day with your bride.
Quite place to play
Tee to green good shape a little busy but that is what happens on a friday
A peaceful round
The Lakes is a well maintained public course in a Georgia state park. It is in a very rural area and so wildlife abounds and quiet is one of its hallmarks. Fairways and greens are in excellent shape. The staff is very friendly and the clubhouse is clean and rustic. Limited options for dining is its major drawback. Very affordable.
Worth the drive
Had some delay with temp. but still a great day to play mowers were delayed also but no biggie understand the situation will be back.
Great day to play
Once again course was in great shape staff very professional will be back again great partner to have with Golf Now.
Worth the Drive
The is a state park course that is a bit off the beaten path. However, it is well worth the drive. I've been playing the course in Feb and March for the past few years and every year the course gets better. I'll put the greens up against any other course. It's a fun, challenging, and pretty layout.
