🌧️ COURSE CLOSED THIS WEEKEND 🌧️

Due to over 180mm of rain, Lakes Resort Golf Club & Clubhouse will be closed today and for the rest of the weekend.

The course is simply far too wet at the moment, and we don’t want to risk causing any further damage to the course.

We’re hoping for some sunshine and drier conditions next week and look forward to seeing everyone back out on the course! ☀️🏌️‍♂️

Thanks for your understanding and see you soon! 💙

And how good are these photos? 📸 A big thanks to our Greenkeeper Nat for capturing the course looking absolutely stunning early this morning.

🌉 Progress is Happening at Lakes Resort!

It’s been a long wait, but we’re excited to share that work has officially begun on rebuilding the bridge between the 17th fairway and 17th green! 👏

This was never going to be a quick or easy fix. The project requires a massive culvert to be installed before the area can be rebuilt, making it a significant piece of work.

Seeing machinery on site and work underway is a huge milestone and another step towards reopening all 18 holes.

A big thank you to everyone for your patience, understanding and continued support while we’ve worked through this process. We know many of you are looking forward to having the full course back in play, and so are we!

A special thank you to the team behind the scenes at Lakes Resort for all of their hard mahi. Your dedication and commitment to getting this project underway doesn’t go unnoticed, and we appreciate everything you’re doing to help bring the course back to its best.

Stay tuned as we continue to share updates on the progress. The finish line is getting closer! ⛳💚
