Another long Par 5 that lets you swing-away from the tee. Our massive "signature oak tree" marks the left side of the landing area for a well aimed drive. Second shots should be positioned to the left side of the fairway for a level lie and short iron in. Shots hit to the right-hand side of this fairway may find their way down to water that boarders the hole there. The left-to-right sloping green will feed approach shots in that direction and make pitches from the left of this green a tricky prospect.

A beautiful short Par 4 that begins with a tee shot over water to an uphill tree-lined fairway. The large sloping green is guarded by a deep front bunker. Stay below the pin on this one if you want to score well!

Another great Par 4. The experienced "Lakewood player" will aim to the right side of the fairway from the tee, as trouble lines the left from tee to green. Woods and out-of-bounds run the length of the hole on the left and a large bunker guards the front-left of the green. Tee shots hit to the right, however, enjoy a clear approach to this large green and a good chance for birdie.

If a Par 3 could be voted the toughest hole on the course this one would surely get the votes. The uphill tee shot always plays longer than it looks to this sloped green. The hole is framed by two giant pines and protected by deep bunkers front left and right.

A tee shot to a generous fairway initiates this Par 4. Your approach shot is down hill to a green devilishly guarded by a large bunker front-left. Approach shots hit long of this green are certain bogies as the hillside halls off severely there.

This long double dog-leg par 5 is the number 1 handicap hole at Lakewood. From the tee, the object is to lay up short of the pond that crosses the fairway. From there, a well placed second shot will set you up for a short iron to the green. Woods along the right and several strategically placed large Oaks make shot placement a priority. Lakewood regulars proudly take par here!

This long dog-leg left Par 4 sets up well for those who have a "draw" in their shot arsenal. Woods on the right and a grove of trees on the left frame the fairway from the tee. A large green welcomes well executed second shots, and the best place to miss this green is short, as every other area makes for a tough up and down.

An innocent looking Par 3 from the tee with a large back-to-front sloping green begging to be birdied. Miss it anywhere but short and you are staring at bogie.

This uphill Par 4 is a great finishing hole. From the tee, your drive is to a generous fairway bordered by trees on the left. Your approach shot to this green must negotiate deep bunkers on both sides of the green.
