Tees are hairy and not cut, greens have ball marks up the wazoo and are below average speed.

Some bias since this is my home ballpark. Candidly I love this place and the lakes is my favorite of the two courses. My complaints are minimal. Value is great. Course can be challenging but it’s not “hard.” There is some variation in hole design. Great overall public facility.
