Great condition, but...

This golf course is in excellent condition due to recent rains, and the greens are extremely fast and challenging. The scenery is beautiful and the course is very enjoyable, except that the pace of play was very slow with waits on almost every shot. Granted, we were only a twosome, but the threesome in front of us was waiting, too. On the last hole, we saw that the 2nd group in front of us was a 5-some. Who allows that on a Saturday morning?! And with no marshalling on the course whatsoever. During these dog days of summer, pace of play is very important, since we want to get our round completed as quickly as possible to get out of the heat.

Thank you for playing Lighthouse Country Club! Your positive feedback regarding the course conditions is much appreciated. As for the pace of play, we did have a marshall out there monitoring the pace and everything was moving along at a great pace for how busy we were. We understand that as a twosome it may have seemed slower though. We hope you’ll consider giving us another try in the near future.

Hail damaged, but playable. Soon to be great again.

This is a beautiful hill country golf course that is unique in design and fun to play. Unfortunately, it has suffered extensive damage from the recent hail storm in the area. The staff has done a great job in getting the course playable, but the greens are still a little bumpy and not unlike greens that have been recently aerated and sanded. The bunkers (which are numerous) are basically unplayable now, but if you allow rolling the ball, you'll be fine. The fairways and tees look fine , but there are still some hail divots that will cause you to have to reposition your ball occasionally. All in all, it was still a very enjoyable round, and I will definitely look forward to playing here again and feel sure that with the continued attention by the greenskeeper staff, the condition of the course will be first class in no time.
The proshop and snackbar staff are super friendly and engaging. Good hot dogs and sandwiches reasonably priced.
If you're a purist and insist on playing it as it lies, you may want to wait a month or so before playing this course to avoid the frustration of frequent bad lies, but if you are able to allow for rolling the ball, you'll have a very enjoyable round here.
