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
Great one
Very nice track with interesting challenges. Food was nice as well on the course. The same comment, how come you allow a forsome of 5 players by the time you allow as well one single player.Good cost performance !
Recommendable course, but only it is difficult to call Grab car on your return trip. Anyway Golf course can help you to call Taxi with 20 or 30minutes wait.Little challenged aged course
We played wood and lake course. Wood is very windy so it’s greatly affected the distance and lake is much more challenges. Caddies are weak in English and lazy.Course Info
