Memorial Day Round

Got a great price on Golfnow and enjoyed a relaxing round of golf on Memorial.Day 2022. Pace was a bit slow on the front with a threescore in front of us that seemed to be beginners. But we got ahead of them at the turn and had a great time on the back. Overall good holiday round of golf... no complaints.

Solid Public Course

Course used to be private and part of Lincolnshire CC. Conditions, layout, and greens were good. Be careful when you play can get very backed up.

Historic course

Lincoln Oaks is a good course, with numerous challenging holes. Requires good course management of shot selection. A few holes have poor drainage after heavy rain. When the course is dry. It's a fun place to test your golf expertise.
