Rain, rain go away.

Have played this course a number of times and like it. However, it does not drain well and gets very soaked when it does rains. After 2 days of rain it was almost unplayable. Water and mud on almost every hole. This has been a problem for many years. They need to do something about their water problems at some point if they can.

It is good golf course we love.

Price is reasonable although course condition is wet. Courses are with many hills and up/downs. Courses are not easy to play.

A little mushy

Course was wet due to the recent rains. It was still nice to be able to 90degree use carts. Greens were in good condition for this late in fall. Never have a bad experience at Lincoln Oaks.

Extremely wet and soft

Due to snow earlier in the week. Temp in the low 50's made it tolerable for early December.
