Lakewood Shores Golf Resort

Fantastic course! Very challenging! Every hole was different and in great condition!!! Club house burnt down in the last year and new club house is about to be built! Once built it will really be an awesome place!

This was the slowest pace of play ever. We abandoned our round at hole 16. We were at five hours at that point. There were no bathrooms to speak of. They charge $11 for a carbliss seltzer. Do not go.

Where to start. Cart had very bad brakes. Barely stop. Cart paths needed major work. Clubs fell of Cart twice, stap ssues. Tee boxes mostly burned up. Some fairways in decent condition others were not. Rough was rough. Greens were in decent shape. Nice layout just needs some TLC.

One of my favorites! Was getting run down last few years. They are working hard to bring it back and it’s getting really nice. Beer and dogs crazy expensive for “ up north course”. Bring a big wallet if u want to eat or drink a lot!!

The owner and staff have done a fantastic job in returning the course to its former glory. Great shape tee to green and the greens were as pure and true as silk. I avoided this course for years, but she is now BACK!!! Must play list.

Best shape I seen it in years. Fairways green with grass underneath it. Greens ran pretty smooth and fairly fast. Bunkers can use some work but are playable. Best they been. Owner's putting work into coarse. Hopefully coming back to years ago. No clubhouse. Sorry to say it burned down.. I would now recommend coarse once again. Still priced affordable.

The course was a little rough, I think they forgot they have a hole 11. Some of the sand bunkers had logs cut up which could have easily been removed but were left in the bunkers. Other bunkers lacked sand or had a lot of rocks. But then there were bunkers that looked great. Fairways/greens were in pretty good shape. Overall I would play it again for 30 bucks. According to the staff working there they just opened up to 18 holes due to flooding that happened in Michigan. So maybe it will get better as the year goes on.

I played all of the Lakewood Shores courses with a large group back in 2001-2003 and they were all in really good shape. The Serradella was in pretty rough shape this time. I think all of rain had the greens in bad shape. They need some TLC. I think they are rebuilding the clubhouse, so perhaps upgrades to the course will follow. The staff were all very pleasant and accommodating.

If only they would turn off the faucet!! Enjoyed the large greens and deep pot bunkers. The double greens were a nice touch. If windy it can be a ton of fun.

Course is meant to be inspired by Pine Valley. Unique concept course when it originally opened, greens are wild and there is definitely a lot of sand!

My favorite course at the resort.

Really enjoyed this classic Michigan parkland course, I had been to the resort before , but had not played the Serendella. The layout is very walkable and is a very enjoyable parkland course. Homes are kept well off the course. Greens had a lot more undulation then I thought they would.

Only negative is the greens had a fungus problem on many of them. Fairways and tees were in good condition.

Sorely disappointed after hearing all the hype. Realize its early in the year, but relatively speaking, conditioning was average at best. Great layout, and you can sense at one time this was a premier destination. Amenities were non existent for a Championship style venue. No bag drop, Carts are old with no windscreen or GPS, Cart paths are mostly dusty dirt trails. bridges, stairs and tee markers ( where the exist) are in major states of disrepair. Starter shack has broken windows and looks as it hasn't been used in years. and the same goes for the snack hut in the middle of the course between 9 and 10. Clubhouse is extremely dated, and offered little in the way of merchandise. Snack bar was a joke. Links style course with average to above average layout. Generous landing areas in fairways and large greens (except #12) that didn't have crazy hard to read breaks. Course condition when you compare it to the rest of the property, was above average, especially considering the time of the year. On a positive note, you can't beat the value! Overnight stay and two rounds, 80 bucks. (I guess you get what you pay for) Wish I would have had the opportunity to play in its prime. Sad to see these once great destinations spiraling downward. Likely won't return.

Would love to play this place in the middle of summer. We had a deal so we were able to play this course, the Gailes and a night's accommodation for $79 so it is a wonderful value.

No beverage cart and portions of some of the greens were a bit chewed up. Loved the layout. Carry off the tee required on most tees. Course book (available in the pro shop for $4) and GPS (I use The Grint) are necessities here. Course knowledge goes a long way here.

Greens are very tough especially on the 3's and short 4's.

Looking forward to coming back.

Looking forward to coming back when my game is in better shape.

Fun layout, no trees but the burn, heather and traps are there to suck up your ball on an errant shot.

Had a special, we were able to play the Gailes and Blackshire with a night's accommodation for only $79 per person, which makes this an unbelievable deal.

Only negative, no beverage cart - closest place to go back to the pro shop to pick up beverages is between 10 and 11 and adds 15-20 minutes to your round as it is quite a drive back to the pro shop.

After a day of heavy rain, we opted for this course to play instead of a later tee time on the Gailles. We had a group in front who moved well & O/A pace of play excellent. We encountered a few wet spots however these were clearly marked w/small flags. We we pleasantly surprised that the course wasn't as wet as we expected & the greens were extremely fast & rolled. O/A an enjoyable round. Staff very accommodating & issued w/o a fuss rain checks for previous day round that we re-sched to the PM but opted not to play. Had no problem switching tee time from Gailles to Serrendella so we could get a round in before our trip home.

Driving range was in awful shape & range balls are in rough shape. Nobody used it but my group. Outdated carts. No halfway house or beverage cart on hot days. The fescue has been overgrown with weeds and brush. Unplayable. The bunkers are not taken care of. Overgrown with weeds and lots of rocks. The course has a decent design, but the condition is horrendous. Appears as if there are only 3 grounds crew employees to take care of three courses. Would not turn off sprinklers in fairways even when groups are playing the holes mid-day. Was a nice way to cool off with no beverages available though. Lots of dead areas. The area has been in a bit of a drought but other area courses are in far better shape! Would not recommend.
