Wrong Course

Didn’t play, apparently I selected Lakewood Country Club in New Jersey. I was trying to get tee time for Lakewood Country Club, in Lakewood California. Didn’t realize my mistake until arriving at Lakewood Country Club in California. Trying to get a refund!

Course has been improved

Course was in good condition, pace was very good. Finished in just under 4 hours.
I could tell some writer was put into fixing this up.
I was impressed with overall condition.
Starter grouped us together so there wasn’t any time lost waiting on singles and twosomes etc

Country Club

I was disappointed at the amenities and course. It is not a country club.

Course needs a lot of work.

Food from a food truck is not what you expect from a country club.

Will never go back

New management

Caught wind that LCC is under new management. We noticed some improvement’s were made throughout the course. A few tee boxes need some TLC but besides that it looked great. Only thing I was upset about was not seeing the 2 trees in the fairway on hole 5. I’m excited to see the final outcome.

Good neighbor course for Tom’s river residents!

Fast green and well managed course condition! However, layout of the course is not great.. Friendly staffs and quick pace of playing. If i reside at south Jersey, I would definitely play every time. Unfortunately, I have to driver almost 2 hours to play the course.

Not worth the money at all

Course is in terrible shape. Greens were horrific and all greenside areas were terrible. Crabgrass and just mudpiles. Out of 18 holes there maybe 3 tee boxes that had a flat lie. For the money they charge, you’re 100% better going elsewhere. If you’re going to spend $70/$80 go somewhere else. They shouldn’t be charging a dollar over $50

Glad you addressed the other areas such as signage 😂. Can’t imagine what the course looked like before that…

Notice how the only critique of mine you directly addressed was the crabgrass. Uneven tee boxes, mud patches all around the greens, long slow greens which looked like they were aerated a week ago and haven’t been treated properly since.

Layout is cool and fun. Good track when everything else is unavailable. But I stand by my original post that it’s simply not worth the price. Cream ridge has slightly better conditions but it’s 20% cheaper. NOT WORTH THE PRICE

Sorry to hear about your disappointment in our facility. Recently we’ve invested a lot of effort into improving overall conditions. Just to name a few: New play supplies and signage, tree work, drainage including greenside bunkers, Re-contouring of fairways, new fairway bunkers. Majority of our clientele have been complimentary of our efforts. I guess it just goes to show you can’t please everyone. Oh Yeah, crabgrass and other grassy weeds don’t even germinate until later in the year! Good luck with your golf game.
