Possibilities

Friendly staff, but course is in rough shape. Ooor signage, fairways are tight, putting surface was horrible.

Many other better options in the area. Won’t return.

Lake of the Woods GC

Great track! Greens survived the winter surprisingly well.
Hole #10 is still ground under repair but they give you plenty of options to make sure you get 18 in. (BTW this hole looks great and is scheduled to be open memorial day)
Great warm up areas even though iron and wood work are into nets. Balls provided which is a huge plus.

Only true downside, the food.

Greens are good, but that’s about it.

The greens are rolling really well I’ll say that first, but everything else is in not great condition. Tea boxes don’t have grass, Fairways are spotty and even around the green you’re chipping off ground. also hole 10 is closed until memorial day weekend. The sand is nice too though

Good Value, woods, hiils

Lotta little dog legs and hilly holes. Gotta pay attention to the angles and slopes. Greens, given the location and weather patterns, should have been smooth and not choppy. 10th hole was closed; yet, it was the nicest and maybe most challenging on the course the green was fenced off but the rest of that hole looked fine.

Poor Layout

Lake of the woods is a good practice course but that’s it. Too many downhill sidehill lies on second shots . Has to be 6 or seven par 4’s that are the same . Trees on both sides on almost every hole. Greens are so tilted I don’t know what they were thinking when they built them . Not player friendly. You need pure luck to make a lot of 3-4 foot severely sidehill putts. Humbling even for a good putter

Lake of the Woods is a gem! The staff is always friendly.

Lake of the Woods is a gem! The staff is always friendly. This price is great compared to the neighboring courses. Just wish it had a practice tee to get warmed up. From the car to tee is tough. Hole #1 is considered a practice hole. LOL

Number 10 closed,

Only played 17 holes because number 10 closed for a year . Grass is inconsistent in fairways and rough not cut in a lot of spots . Crab grass and roots . Not pristine by any stretch. Greens always pretty good . Lots of sharp sidehill putts. Number one is not a good starting hole . Not a great layout . Good for practice hitting it straight

DC,
Thanks for playing Lake of the Woods Golf Club.
Hole 8 has some ground under repair to improve the 150 yards and in fairway but is open.
Hole 10 will be closed most of the summer as we have a stormwater management project in progress.
