Good course

Good for a local course. 1 tee box under repair. Grounds were somewhat dry and hard, which is unusal for Lochmere, which tends to be soft. Greens are in good shape. The pace of play was pretty good compared to my previous times.

Great Course

Played here for the first time and enjoyed the track. The course was tight and challenging. Luckily played with a member who helped us with the layout. Greens were fantastic. Looking forward to playing again.

Easy to play

Pretty easy to play. Little narrow at places but mostly straight and flat. Good chats with starter and Ranger. Some tee boxes were a little hard to insert tee. Carts were fine.

Why cart path only?

Knowing that the course is subject to wet conditions when it rains, but this was not the case when we played yesterday. Maybe one or two holes had patches of wet grass, but come on, Cart path only for the whole course?

It’s Fine

It’s Lochmere. If you’ve played it, you know what to expect. It’s a good course if it hasn’t rained lately. Solid greens, simple layout, good for the general public. But as always, terribly slow.

Overpriced and overbooked.

5+ hours to play a short golf course. 3 groups on one hole at times. Tee sheet was running late. Par 3 with mats to hit tee shots from. Not worth $55.
