The Links at Lakehouse

I’ve played this course before in much better condition. The entire cours was very dry. Felt like I was hitting off hard pan when I was in the middle of the fairway. There were many spots on the course and around the green that were bare. Had to chip over them.

Fairways were covered with ground under repair. Had to move our next shots several times. The green on #7 was ridiculous my unfair. I was 8’ for birds and that put rolled 16 ft past. Way to reward a golfer Superintendent! That’s just stupid.

Good condition. Played long due to being wet. Soft greens with a lot of slope in good condition. Many greens sloped front to back. If the greens were not slow they could be impossible to putt.

Fairways and greens were in great shape greens ran pretty fast.

Now that it’s drying out, course is looking good. Greens are excellent. Some fairways still have a little damage from storms, but waaaaaaay better than a month ago. Pace of play kinda sucks. They send groups out on top of each other. Waiting 5 min before every shot. I guess that all depends if there’s 4 guys with 25 handicaps hitting multiple balls from back tees. I saw them not clear the ladies tees on like 7 holes. They didn’t even pull their pants down on following shot.

Course is soggy wet, poor drainage. Rough and partial fairways are not mowed due to wetness. Tee boxes and greens in decent shape.

Course is super muddy still with standing water even though all other courses are pretty dry. Pace of play was awful. A round with carts took 5.5 hours and no marshal out there. Clubhouse and amenities are pretty cool but course is in bad shape.

The course was very wet and unplayable in many spots. We constantly had to move the golf balls out of standing water and we frequently walked through standing water to get to the golf balls. Also - this was a 5 1/2 hour round of golf on a course that took 3 1/2 hours to play the last time we were there. Many times there were 3 groups at a tee box at one time. Clearly too many people were on the course and the tee times were too close together. We will not be returning.

First time playing this course since the Name change. 3 1/2 hour front nine. The course was cart path only which was absolutely required. The course had standing water on almost every hole. I walked, and it was just soupy as heck. Almost lost my shoe in a mud hole in the fairway. Rough was uncut (to be expected) but lost 3 balls just off the fairway. Couldn't find them. On the subject of slow play, if they would just spread out the start time by a couple of minutes, that would be much better. There were 3 groups at each tee box on the front nine. With the mud and standing around waiting to play your next shot, I would wait at least a couple of weeks before spending money on this course.

This course like many in the area is extremely busy but they are are efficient and got us out in time. The course is a good test of golf. The area has has a tremendous amount of rain so the course was as expected incredibly wet in places so cart path only. I would play it again under drier conditions.
