Golf? Check. Food? Check. Comfortable lounge? Check. Customer service? Check. Slow players? Unfortunately, check.

My wife’s ball landed on the bounce house… literally. A family’s kid’s party was probably a hole-in-one! Fun day, though.

A golf course poured into a dale, surprisingly scenic. Some fairways could use a bit of TLC, though.

The course is painstakingly maintained, with some remarkable landscaping. Greens are a challenge, with plenty of breaks. Pace of play can be improved, though.

Not poor, not grand. A fair golf course. Call it the Goldilocks zone of Bay Area golf nor too hard, nor too easy.

Divot paradise! They need to revamp their fairway sand-fill program. Otherwise, a pleasant experience.

As a mid-handicapper, I found the course quite challenging. Not a fan of the uphill finish on the 18th, but the view is stunning.

Thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphree. Serene and captivating vistas! The greens and financways are top-notch. But, the pace of play could be quicker. I suppose that’s the price of popularity. I also wished that the food at the clubhouse was a bit less pricy.

Beautiful! Peppered with challenging holes and faced with consistent breezes off the Pacific, Lake Merced Golf Club offers a respite from my everyday hustle! The grounds are well maintained and fairways are as forgiving as you’d expect from a top-tier golf course. However, the customer service could improve a touch – my drink order was mixed up twice at the clubhouse. Yet that alone doesn’t demerit the overall experience!
