Lakewood Country Club could be a lot better with improved maintenace practices. Unfortunately, they cut the fairways to low in the summer then let the grass burn up because of the heat. They do not water the greens enough when it is hot and they burn up also.
This golf course could be a really nice like it was about 3 years ago. Fix it raise the lawn mowers about half to one inch and we will see a nice course agian. Keep the fairways/grass longer in summer and keep the grass cool and green.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing, Worse than average course for the area
