Woodlands is a marvelous track set in a special setting adjacent to Green Lake

Interesting course with each hole presenting a different challenge with sand , water and mature trees.
Course uses hilly terrain to create dramatic vistas and requires thoughtful approach shots.
Greens have challenging breaks but rolled smoothly.
A special place and a must play for serious golfers.

Great links experience

Greens were fast and wind was blowing 20 mph. Along with fairly firm conditions we had great links experience, except for temps in the 90s. Probably a difficult course for high handicappers. Not very forgiving if you miss fairways and greens. Cool course however not like many others you play

Fast greens, daunting approaches, fantastic views

Outside of having a few burned out spots on some greens, the course is immaculate. The greens are firm, but will hold a long approach. Just try to keep the approach underneath the cup, since the greens have to be 12+ on the stimp meter. Every cart offers a laser range finder, but I found my Garmin GPS to be more accurate. Enjoyed the course very much!!!

played at 2pm. for $30, great deal for that price.

would of gave it five stars but the very few people that don't how to walk on the greens with spikes can wreck a green in a short time. there was at least 4 greens that were almost impossible to put on. Other wise it is a great course .

Great views. Challenging. Slow play.

Great value thru Golfnow saving over 70%; maybe that's why we got stuck behind some kind of best ball outing. These guys must have been playing for big money!

Challenging with elevated greens and deep bunkers. A must play if you are in the area.

The course is always a challenge for the average golfer with fast undulating greens and deep bunkers. Fairway bunkers and high mounds are well placed to catch errant drives. A poor shot at the wrong time can cost dearly.

This is a challenging higher end course.

The course was in generally great condition. Some of the greens had considerable winter kill and still show the results. 5 stars to the Starter and the Beverage Cart.

British Open golf nearby.

Very challenging. Firm greens, deep bunkers and elevated greens. Many doglegs and changes in elevation create some blind shots. Fairway bunkers and fescue add to difficulty. Bring your short game or stay home.

Great Course with Great Rate

It felt like we had the whole course to ourselves. The course was in great condition. I think selling lots on some of the holes will detract from the beauty/quality of this course. Sad to see that happen.

Great value

There are a few blind tee shots, but no trick shot or gimmick holes. You earn your pars. Fairways were in excellent shape and a couple greens were still recovering from a brutal spring.

Wonderful Experience

Plenty of great things about this course. The Woodlands layout is awesome. Would have liked to have a yardage book, as they have laser pointers on the carts, so unless you have played before, you don't know where the hazards are. The beer carts were abundant and very friendly servers. The pro shop is very nice and reasonable prices. The snack shack is accessible from various hole thru the 18, so you have multiple times to access for a quick bite to eat.

Not as good as usual

I play Lawsonia a few times a season and am usually quite pleased with course conditions. Having played other courses in the area earlier and finding them to be in really good condition, I was surprised to find the Links course in such poor shape. Greens were often grass-less and there was a lot of un-repaired winter kill in fairways and rough. Perhaps the Woodlands is in better condition, but I feel that $50 was way too much to pay for the Links so far this year.

This is Lawsonia--you expect the best

Roughs were up which made it challanging but greens need to recover from what must have been winter damage

Worth every cent

Lawsonia is amazing. I wouldn't necessarily choose it if you are an 18 handicapnor above, because of the difficulty level... but even if you are, you will love the course. Just not your score

Well planned course, excellent challenges & manageable !

We really like the course. The staff was super friendly & helpful.
We were unfortunate to play behind a 4some that didn't have a clue as far as golf etiquette or course management. We don't think they ever heard the term "ready golf". Had lots of time to enjoy the scenery tho !!!
