Woodford lakes
Course has come a long way. Some greens still have some bad spots on them but nothing overbearing and they’re working hard on getting them where they need to be. Definitely recommend the course.
Improved.
The course is in excellent condition, especially when compared to the days it was called Cabinbrook. Staff was friendly, fairways were full, greens rolled true and sand traps had actual sand.
Pace
Course was fairly good shape a bit pricey
Wasn't too happy about the 5 somes in front of me.
Course was great.
Beautiful, green fairways, tons of shade on a hot day. Greens were firm but in great shape. We had a great time!
Amazing condition & friendly staff!!!
For someone who ho grew up playing this course 20 years ago the course is in amazing shape! The grounds crew have clearly revived this course. Gone are the poor conditions from Cabin Brook/The Brook. The course is fun yet offers its challenges as well as opportunities to score. The clubhouse staff are always friendly and accommodating. Keep up the great work!
Best Value in Cemtral Kentucky
For my money, Woodford Lakes is the best value in Central Kentucky. The course lay out is one of my favorites. With fun short par 4s on both sides, challenging par 3s and par 5s that will test you.
The course offers the best players a true challenge at 7000 yards. For the rest of us a true challenge from one up tees at 6300 yards. My favorite stretch of the course is right after the turn. Holes 10, 11, and 12 give you a bit of all challenges and an opportunity to put a birdie on your scorecard.
The staff at Woodford Lakes is friendly and knowledgeable. They have taken extra precautions throughout Covid crisis to remain open and keep golfers safe.
I highly recommend this fun and challenging course located in the heart of Central Kentucky.
Horrible
Worst course in area, hard as a rock and it has rained a lot, furry greens, no break, very slow play, letting people tee off back nine when our group was making turn. We will not return to this course ever, nor will any one I know. Big time Waste of money and time.
Hi, thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par as the current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve.

Thank you for playing Woodford Lakes Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Great shape
Hidden gem in central Ky...great layout, in excellent condition, staff is top notch...The pro Derek and assistant pro Sean do a great job of managing a busy course. If you've never played here, put it on your list of places to play
Course with great Par 3s
This is first time playing this course but thought the layout was fun and the Par 3s were great. Varied distances and greens made each one unique—no plain green 150yds away. We played on a Sunday AM at 9 and our foursome was able to finish in less than 4 hours, which is next to unheard of in our area. Will definitely be back to play.
Still a bit of work in progress.
This is the second time I’ve played it since it opened as Woodford Lakes. When I played in October, we had just come out of the driest September on record and the course was quite dry. Now it’s in better condition. Since it had been closed for a few years they are still working on getting it better. Still like the layout and the greens are quick!
Canceled tee time
They canceled my tee time because they said they didn’t have any carts available at that time. My tee time was 8:12 am and they open at 7 am. Shouldn’t have any issues when it was booked two days in advance. They didn’t call to offer anything else. Just got an email saying they canceled it on my behalf. I feel I was bumped for someone else, maybe to pay full price. When I called about it, they said they could give me a tee time for 3:30 at the full price.

Very well maintained
We got a Hot Deal and decided to try it out and were very impressed! It was very well maintained and greens were excellent (and a little fast). It was a bit slow because of a threesome in front of us and a foursome in front of them, but otherwise a great time.
It had more water than a lot of the courses I've played and my partner commented that it was pretty narrow in a few places, but still easy enough for a beginner.
They had soda and Gatorade available for purchase, but no food or alcohol. I'll note we went during the quarantine, so things may be different under normal operations. I saw people with coolers, so I think it is BYOB which is a perk in itself.
If they keep offering the "Hot Deals", it is most definitely worth the the hour drive.
The course is in much better shape than it was at the end of last summer when all the ponds were drained up and the fairways were burned. All the ponds are full and there’s grass growing in the fairways the green still need some work but it’s in very playable shape now
