Worth the money if you stay near by

Played on a Monday and our tee time got pushed back about 40min because of a tournament. Pace of play was slow. Fairways have still a lot of damage from the winter. Greens are fast and in good shape. Tee boxes need some work, just like the cart paths. The Layout is nice. You play thru a nice living area close to the water, which you only can see at the Clubhouse or the 18th green. It was a long drive from North Myrtle Beach and we wouldn't drive there again for what we have experienced.

Course Need work

There wasn’t one sand trap playable on the course. Fairways were rough as well. Greens rolled fast and were very good.

Very nice layout

Friendly staff. I liked the hole layout. Greens were in good shape for this time of year. Green fairways which is great compared to other courses in the area. I would definitely play it again.

The layout was nice but the course wasn’t in very good shape. A lot of bare areas. The fairways were dormant because it was Feb. Hard to get club under the ball. The greens were good and consistent. Staff was very nice and attentive.

pleasant for the price

living in the area, since Spring 2022. First time here. the good: the greens! were spectacular and that is 70% of a course for me. quick and true. soft enough to hold high approach shots. the layout was nice - being the first time, some holes were tricky, can't wait to play it again. #18 was a great risk / reward finishing hole. The not so good: everything else was a little chewed up. Several tee box's were not level. there was some ground under repair. some fairways were very thin. Had a groupon for $42 plus taxes / fees, so at $45, it was good value. Would not want to pay any more at this condition. LOVED the layout. Played the BLUE tees, I am an 11. PLENTY of challenge at close to 6300 yards. White is too short, at ~5990. A hybrid combo would be wonderful, B/W combo around 6150 - pull 2 par 3's fwd and shorten that 400 yard par 4 on the back 9. Will be back.

Fun golf course

Played alone. I tried not to play up to the group in front and had no one behind me until I reached 18. Tees, fairways and greens were true. The rough was exactly that. Don’t go there. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. For the price I couldn’t do better with this still high season. I look forward to my next trip back. Go Play Lockwood Folly!

Could be a great course but needs a little maintenance

The course had a nice layout and was interesting to play. It was starting to look a little worn out. Only issue I had was the tee box area needed better maintenance and markings.

Solid course, slow play

I’ve been meaning to play this course for a while and I’m glad I did. Great conditioning and greens rolled nice. I really liked the design and played well. Only issue is some of the black tee boxes were not level. We got stuck behind a slow foursome and barley made it in before darkness. Didn’t see a ranger. It took us about 4:45 to finish. Other than that it was a good day.

Best Condition in Years

We’ve been playing Lockwood Folly for years (35). The fairways and greens were in the best condition we’ve seen in a long, long time. Staff was super friendly. Cart guy, woman in pro shop! Both very nice. The cart paths have not been maintained which they might want to look at but I’d rather have the course in good condition than the cart paths.

Enjoyable round

The people working here were nice and attentive. Course was in nice shape. We got behind a foursome that really slowed our play. Ended skipping a hole because they didn’t seem interested in letting us play through. Other than that it was a nice round of ⛳️
