Very very slow pace

They should stop over-booking. Groups of 3 and 4 were crawling all over the course and many of them were walkers. Took 2 hours to do the 9 holes - way too long for 3-pars. This is the 3rd time I have had to leave early before completing the 18 holes that I paid for. Probably the last time I will go there.

Forcing singles to share carts with strangers is irresponsible

Hated that I had to give up my cart and share another person's. Covid is still raging and to put together 2 unknown in close proximity for several hours ( 5 hours actually) is irresponsible. Pace of play was really slow due unusually higher number of walkers - who probably decided against the cart option for the same reason. It does not make sense as there were a huge number of carts available. This is a show stopper for me. I never want to share cart again and there never will play at Lochmere again.

Great course, friendly staff.

I love this course. It is very challenging for me because its all hilly and the greens are fast and also not flat but I will go there again and again.
Course amenities missing are drinking water on the course.

Great course, somewhat challenging

My first time at this course and I love it. The course & greens are in excellent condition. Many of the holes are very challenging because of water hazards and sand traps. and because it is very hilly.
The carts are battery operated which I like, as opposed to noisy gas which some courses still have.

Great course but needs improvements

Parts of fairways have no grass and have lots of small ditches.
Would like to see battery operated cart for the sake of noise reduction.

Challenging

The course is quite challenging due to most of the fairways have slopes and rough, swampy patches in the middle where if you hit the ball you have no hope of finding. The pace was slow. The layout is very easy to follow. I only wish they would convert the carts to battery operated. The noise of the gas operated motors is a little disconcerting in such pastoral surroundings.

Great course but...

It was my first time at the course. It is an awesome course and one of the more challenging courses in Raleigh. It was very busy so the pace of play was slow, but I was told by regulars that is is not always so slow.

My only complaint is that there is no drinking water available at all throughout the course. The water cooler boxes were empty with coolers at all. Also there is no ball wash apparatus anywhere.

One of the best golf course

It was my first time playing there. I think it is one of the best golf courses I have played at. It is challenging at just the right level for me. The course conditions are great and greens are excellent.

Fairways do not exist

This is the course I lose most balls at because even if you hit the ball perfectly straight, you might not be able to find it. The reason is that there is basically no fairway at all. It is all rough and overgrown.

Too busy, pace of play very slow

This must be the busiest course I have been to. The pace of play is super slow with hordes of foursome players all over

I have been there many times, but have decided to never go there again.
