Lakewood Country Club
About
Enjoyable if unspectacular parkland course
Located near Bangkok city center, Lakewood Golf Club is a pleasant, mostly flat course that features a vast expanse of green space that's home to 45 plant species and 2,000 trees. The course consists of three nines, Lake, Wood and Rock, all similarly designed with subtle doglegs, slightly undulating greens, and water features on a few holes.
The Bermuda grass fairways are wide and although generally well-maintained, can be somewhat spongy, meaning the course often plays longer than its indicated yardage. The rough is typical Bermuda rough, and during the rainy season, becomes so dense that the penalty for finding it becomes pretty harsh, with a lofted club often required to get back on the fairway.
Lakewood offers a good golfing experience, and some of the par-3 holes are excellent and compare favorably to the best in Bangkok. The seventh hole on the Wood nine, in particular, requires a well-placed tee shot left of the huge lateral water hazard that stretches across the fairway.
The Rock nine is probably the best, although with water featuring on every hole, it's a challenge to score well, not least with the nervy approach required to what is essentially an island green at the last hole.
The luxurious club house features an extensive locker room with Jacuzzi and Sauna as well as a pro shop with all the latest golf gear and decent food options.
While Lakewood Country Club is slightly more expensive than some other courses in the area due to its relative proximity to Bangkok city center and the Suvarnabhumi Airport, as well as its popularity among Asian expatriate members, it offers friendly service and a pleasant parkland layout.
Reviews
Watch out for theft caddy.
Golf saver, this is Monte Chan. I booked a round of golf in Lakewood golf course, Bangkok via your company. ORD 17881. Pls file a complaint to the golf course as one of the caddies number 72 or 73 who drove my buggy stole my money from my wallet that I put in the cart. I lost 2000 bahts and HK$300 after the game. I found out only when I got on the taxi leaving the golf course. I want the golf course management to know about this and make necessary action to the caddy. I clearly know how much money I have before the game and it's gone after the game. The caddy in the buggy is the only one to have access to my wallet. It's very bad and and ruined my golf trip. Thanks for filing the complaints and let me know what the course management responses. Monte"Surprisingly good course"
I was not familiar with this course and it exceeded my expectations and was slightly cheaper than some of the other courses in the area. Excellent caddie and an enjoyable round.Course Info
