Another enjoyable round at Ahwautuki Lakes

We have played this course several times and have always enjoyed it for the layout. Some improvements have been made in the last few months to improve the fairways, and made the course even more enjoyable.

This was the first time we walked the course, and it was good exercise as well as a good short game practice.

The only negative is that there is no club house and there are only port-a-potties (which is a very bad experience for women (my wife). I believe the owners are planning to improve the accommodations.

Continues to improve

This resurrected course is getting better. The fairways have improved immensely and the lakes are filling in. Fun executive course. Will be even better when the new clubhouse is completed.

Up & coming course

This course is fun but it still needs some clean up on the lakes part.
All in all a fun time and hopeful that they will continue improving and I can upgrade the review :)

Has been consistently improving

This course has greatly improved. The tee boxes are in great shape along with the fairways. The greens could use some attention. They have random divots and bald patches that definitely affect one’s putting line. Overall, this course has been improving month by month.

1 and done

This course is in very bad shape. The greens are very bumpy and the rough is dirt and gravel.
Wait until 2025 to give it a try.

As Advertised

Website says there are a lot of trees and a lot of water. True That!!. Its a shorter course with few opportunities to make up strokes (unless you are stiffing your iron shots - alas, I was not) Fairways seemed nice on those occasions I visited them - not often enough though.
I don't think you would want to play this course during the first part of your season, after you get your game on this will be quite a challenge

Warning! Do not attempt.

Executive course, pace of play was horrendous mainly because the starter was splitting groups and sending off singles between groups. It took 2.5 hours to play the front 9 holes. ON AN EXECUTIVE COURSE.
Fairways were good greens are awful.
