The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
A flat, walkable nine in Lakeside that you play twice from different tees, short on length but with enough water and mature trees to keep accuracy honest. A budget-friendly round that rewards casual players and walkers more than scratch golfers chasing a stiff test.
Consistently praised
- Easy walking on flat ground; friendly to older players and beginners.
- Mature trees and a couple of water holes that quietly demand a straight ball.
Worth knowing
- Only two par 3s and limited length make it feel short to bigger hitters.
Golfers recommend
- Walk it; the terrain and price both reward leaving the cart behind.
- Club down off the tee on the tighter holes; accuracy matters more than distance.
