Oakland Park Golf Club

Course is in really good condition with all the bad wet weather we’ve had in recent months.

Tight woodland course 9 par 3's few chances to take out a driver.

A message popped up saying the course was on temporary greens. I called to check - they said work had completed and all greens were operational. Technically true - but in reality they were unplayable - SO SLOW and bobbly. The rest of the course was in fine condition. But o would not return with greens in such poor condition it was more like mini golf than proper golf.

Very pleased to have discovered this course. Perfect course to hone your skills

I have played Oakland Park before so knew what to expect. It is a relatively short compact course with opportunities to score well.
While the course was in good shape my game wasn’t great as the wind affected my accuracy.
Very enjoyable and excellent value on a hot deal.

The tee greens were cut nice and ran good, but thats where it ends im afraid. I know we've had rain , but to charge £23.99 on a hot deal for muddy fairways with no drainage system does not represent value for money. It was so bad it was laughable. Thankfully the hot deal tee time was paid for out of my monthly hot deal credit because I would have walked off after hole 2 and asked for a refund.

Understand we are in winter conditions but it would of been nice to be told that we would be playing of matts on every hole before we paid. Only got told when arriving and booking into the club shop.

Played Oakland Park q a few times now. It’s short and flat. Having said that, all the holes are pretty different and it’s always in decent condition. It always has good tee time availability and pace of play is always decent (it takes me 2hr15 on my own and this round as a 2ball took 3.5 hrs).
I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a quick round after work or a quick casual one at the weekend. It won’t blow your mind but for the price it definitely does more than hold its own

Nice sunny day among loads of wet ones, expected a wettish course. Was very wet, but having to look for balls on fairways where they weren't cut isnt great. can understand why they are not cut, but don't charge full rates, and let people know how it is. Would not have played or turned up if we were told in advance.
Bar manager was great, hence higher staff ratings.

It's a fairly easy course and is often filled with fairly new golfers. Hence the slow round. If your not in a rush and fancy an easy round of golf, then this will suit you.

This is an enjoyable course which requires a variety of shots and thought. Driver is rarely needed, although a few risk and reward holes will tempt it out of the bag.
The only quibbles are the average driving range to warm up (no practice net here) and the poor pace of play, although a recently added notice on the club website attempts to address this.
