Beautiful course, there are a few little areas under transition - which they are working on with sod or some such - but all in all, one of the best around. Certainly the best Ive ever played on a regular basis. Not sure comments about length - I get plenty of challenge from the blues and I drive it 260-280. The tips are 7100 I think. Plus There are so many different looks to keep you twisting. bad shots get punished pretty judiciously. #8 Par 5 hard to keep it on the fairway. Super friendly staff. Absolutely Love this course. Also Re: Older reviews - this course has been under Billy Casper management for last 2 years. From what I understand, old mgmt company not so great.. if you look - everything from within the past year or so is very positive. I played once and Joined as a member; its that good. Plus huge bonus - grass driving range! one of the few in the area.. mats dont tell you when youre hitting fat..... 5 Start golf experience.

I just played Lake Presidential Golf Course on Saturday (Aug 8, 2015) and I was incredibly appalled at the conditions of the course!!! The fairways looked like a they just held a monster truck rally, the greens had more craters than the moon, most bunkers could be used for mud wrestling and you would have been lucky to find a single grass clump on most of the tee boxes!! I MEAN, THIS WAS A DISGRACE!! Come on....when you see families of mushrooms and 6 inch tall weed growing in the middle of the fairways.....that means they havent seen a lawnmower in quite a while! I have no idea what has happened to this course....I played it at around a year ago and it was in excellent shape...it used to be one of my favorites.....is there a new management team? is it losing money? Whatever the reasons the fact is that it has gone downhill and I am afraid I will not go back and will not recommend anyone to play it. Get a new Greens Keeper!!

Pros......Nice layout, nice clubhouse, friendly staff and a grass range. Cons........round was way too long.....over 5 hours. A group of 22 went off in front of us and the starter didnt realize they all teed off together!! Yes...all 22 watched everyone tee off on the first hole. That put us 25 minutes behind right out of the gate!! The course was not in great shape. Although we hadnt had any rain for about a week the course was extremely wet in certain areas and there were 6 inch weeds growing in the fairways. Greens were average....some good some horrible. They have a grill between 9 and 10 which is nice but when we got there, they had no water, no beer and the hot dogs had just don on the grill....10 minute wait if we wanted one. The only reason we will go back is because the GM gave us a free round due to the fact we had to play behind a group of idiots. Queenstown Lakes is $74 and a 10Xs better course!!

I didnt like the fact that we were told this was an "open house" but barely explained what an open house was! It would be nice if the only rep that you have that deals with weddings worked with couples who do not have the typical schedule to get off on weekdays to see your venue! It was a very unpleasant experience to walk in like a chicken with your heads cut off not knowing where to go or who to speak to. Then given a cold shoulder by the other staff as if we werent supposed to be there. Very unwelcoming, belittling experience! I would NEVER recommend this place for a wedding or any other function!

Would love to give it 0 stars but cant. Not worth the price and always in poor shape (especially the fairways and greens). I hate seeing people cheated out of money and that is exactly what this course does. I recommend saving your money and making a trip to Laurel Hill, Whiskey Creek, or Bulle Rock if you want to play on a high quality public course. The layout is very scenic and there are some great holes but too many corners cut when it comes to course maintenance. I assume anyone giving this 4 or 5 stars has ties to the course and is attempting to cover up Lake Presidentials laziness.

Not my favorite design, narrrow fairways, blind shots and vey few flat lies even from the middle of the fairway. Apparently the course was in really bad shape last year and they are working hard to get it back but theres a lot of bad burned out spots in fairways and even tee boxes as of 7/7/2017. Staff were all super nice and really trying to talk up the course but its a tough sell. Cart path only makes it a long round and they have no plans to change it till the course is in better shape and for the price its just not worth it yet but maybe down the road it will be.

Played the course a few weeks ago. Every fairway is full of divots, looks like the game of polo has been played on the course. Can someone please make a suggestion to have them put divot repair in the golf carts, horrible! Greens are slow, bumpy and the tee boxes have no grass and full of sand. I asked the assistant pro "what happened to the course", his comment was "most people are giving it great reviews."...REALLY!! Do yourself a favor and do not go there. #2 rated in MD, I do not think so.

Played here on 11/18. Knew about the poor course conditions. And indeed much of the course was in poor repair some fairways with more bare patches than grass. Decided to play here to take advantage of a web offer on their site for a coupon for a $25 replay hopefully when the course might be in better condition. Was surprised at the course to be told they werent honoring their offer. Well that seems like bad and deceptive business practice. Not likely to recommend this course.

Very nice course with very helpful and friendly golf staff. Not sure why there was no water on the course and why the cart girl left at two with people on the course. Service in the restaurant was slow and very unorganized. Food was ok. After the round sat at the bar a few minutes then told it was closed. Should have been a sign stating it closed at 730. People still on the course, wonder why they closed.

Im surprised to see negative reviews of this course. Maybe it was in rougher shape a couple years ago, but Ive played it twice in the past couple months and its in very good condition now. Great layout, not long but challenges golfers with position play throughout. Pace of play has been pretty good, and the staff are very professional/helpful. Highly recommended.

While this is a nice golf course, this is not a $75-$90 golf course, which is what they charge. For that kind of money, I expect a GPS golf cart along with an impecable course. I generally judge a golf course based on value. For me, the price doesnt match the experience. Until the price comes down, save your money.

Good public golf course experience! Yes while its expensive, its worth the cost: friendly pro shop staff, knowledgeable PGA pros, and fun layout. It is not a municipal course! I believe that the better courses are indeed expensive; how else to discourage cheap/weak golfers and their negative outlooks
