Course in Good Condition

Staff is excellent. The course was in good shape except for the bunkers. Rain for several days had something to do with that.
Pace of play was great on the front 9.
It got backed up on the back 9 with 2 groups sometimes waiting by the same tee box.
Overall it was a fun round.

Greens in Great Shape

It was typical winter golf a few days after heavy rain. Cart path only but fairways were playable.
Greens were in excellent condition.
The staff as always was superb.
The trees were rude as they continually hit my tee shots 😂.

Sand on greens

Played a few days after the Sunday rain so the course was wet in spots, especially holes 1-5. This was not a surprise and doesn’t affect my rating. I was disappointed to see so much sand on the greens. I had played the course recently and thought it was in good winter shape with no sand on the greens.

Not in its normal shape

Typically Lakewood is in great shape with regard to tee boxes, fairways and greens. The tee boxes had some bare, uneven spots. The fairways were a little bare but I attribute this to a lack of rain this year. The greens were fast, which I like, but had several sandy spots.
The staff is always great and I really like the layout.

Tees boxes and bunkers need work.

The greens were in decent shape as were the fairways. The tee boxes were all blocked off for renovation. The bunkers should have been labeled Ground Under Repair as they were mostly packed dirt.
I do like this course and hope the fixes happen soon.

Great Value

The staff, as always was friendly and helpful. The course is in great shape for mid-February. The greens rolled very true with good quickness. The pace of play was what you would hope for on a Wednesday. The Hot Deal price was very fair.
They designated only 4 holes as cart path only as opposed to taking the easy way out by saying ALL.

Lost the Greens

I’ve played many rounds here. As usual the staff was great.
The normally good greens were in horrible condition today. Putting was like playing Plinko. Hopefully in the next few months the greens will be restored. It’s a fun and challenging course to play.

The effort put into maintenance shows

Maintenance crews have clearly been working very hard to upgrade the course conditions. The greens are rolling very truly. Fairways are in good shape. Bunkers look good (was fortunate to avoid them).
Keep up the good work.

FIVESOME nightmare

As usual the staff was friendly. The ‘character’ of some of the holes was greatly changed by Ida. So many trees have been removed as a result of the hurricane. Coming out of the winter months the course conditions were about what I expected for my $23.00. The greens (browns) are not in the best of shape at the moment. Hopefully spring weather and some good care will remedy that problem. The fairways were in surprisingly decent shape.
My complaint is the pace of play. As my threesome stopped behind the 5th tee box (par 3) , watching the threesome ahead of us tee off, they warned us about what was ahead of them. They said they would have let us through except for what they experienced on the prior holes. So I looked at the 6th hole (par 5). Well this is lovely.
A FIVESOME was around the 6th green. A single was in the fairway waiting to hit onto the green and ANOTHER SINGLE was on the tee box. Watching the FIVESOME play EXCRUCIATING SLOWLY we ‘snail paced’ along through holes 7-11. On each hole we sat behind a tee box while the threesome ahead of waited for the FIVESOME to clear the fairway. Somewhere around the 8th the singles either were let through (doubtful) or skipped ahead. After the 11th, as the FIVESOME was walking off the 12th, we made the convenient skip ahead to the 14th. Note that the 13th was wide open as were the 14th-18th. As we driving across the bridge to the 18th green the FIVESOME was headed to the 16th tee. We didn’t bother to go back to play 12&13.
This the second at Riverlands time in the past few months that I have skipped from the 11th to the 14th because of a FIVESOME . Either ban FIVESOMES or educate them to say “Play through.”

Greens disappointing

I’ve been playing this course for over 30 years. I have never seen the greens like this. Some patchy crab grass and sand spots.
I enjoy the layout and the challenge and variety.

Hurricane Ida changed the course

I really like the course but hurricane Ida took out several key trees. From my perspective the most severely impacted/changed holes were numbers 4,7,8,10 and 17. The green on 8 is no longer protected by a tree.
Typically the pace of play on a weekday is great. This time we were a threesome playing behind a twosome that had a slow playing FIVESOME in front of them. I really don’t know if the FIVESOME tried to let them through or not but after a few holes we jumped ahead by skipping from number 10 to number 14.
The greens and fairways were in good shape.

Course in great shape

My only regret is I didn’t spend much time in the perfectly manicured fairways. My tee shots seemed to be allergic to them LOL The course was in much better shape than my swing today. Staff was super friendly. Lunch there afterward was really good.

Course was closed

I arrived to discover the course had been temporarily closed for several days. I should not have been allowed to book. GolfNow and courses need better communication.
