Fun Time

For a fun time try Lake Carroll. We played on 10/10/16 and found to course to be in great shape. Fairways were cut to our liking and the greens rolled true. Beautiful fall day, well manicured course and golfing with great friends. What else can you ask for?

A Great Bargain

Too bad I live 90 minutes from wonderfully wooded course. Play once a year; but huge greens and rolling hills for tee shot make play entertaining and fun. I played whites on front and gold on back as I am 70. Much more enjoyable from golds/ no 3-woods in to par 4's. They have had alot of rain/ be sure to check first for conditions/ wouldn't be as much fun from cart-path only. Course is in great shape and the greens roll true.

always challenging

My first time on a tee box was here at Lake Carroll back some 30 years ago. 18 holes consisted of a 2nd round of the 9 hole course. Time has definitely favored this course. You can play this course twice in one day and can't play it the same way. The greens are so challenging everytime because the conditions change with the weather conditions. This could be said about any course but this one is really stands out. From start to finish the greens went from moist and a bit slow to dry and super fast to half and half. You never can tell how your ball is going to roll when you hit it on the green. Its a great challenging course. I gave a 3 star on speed of play simply because they were just so busy. Great course.

Wonderful coarse

First time playing coarse. Played from white tees just under 6000 yards. Greens weren't super fast but were challenging. As were the pin placements. Would recommend to all levels of players. I did not loose a ball but I can see where it would gobble some up.
Club house is clean and classy with nice pro shop. We will definitely return.

GolfNow is pretty much the best golf app ever!

First time using this app. Awesome deals! No Hassel from the club house. I really like how they recognized the Golf Now app when I checked in. Lake Carrolls golf club was a great time it was fun and challenging at the same time. Thanks Golf Now!
