Clear Lake Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Clear Lake Golf Club for ideal conditions?

We always recommend late spring, specifically May, or early fall in September. You'll avoid the peak summer humidity and crowds, enjoying perfectly manicured fairways and greens without the rush. The course truly shines when the weather is crisp.

What's the most challenging or memorable stretch of holes at Clear Lake Golf Club?

You'll definitely remember the "Lake Gauntlet" - holes 14 through 16. The par-3 15th, playing directly over a finger of Clear Lake, demands precision and can easily add strokes if you're not careful. It's a beautiful but demanding finish to the back nine.

How does the value stack up at Clear Lake Golf Club, and what should I expect for green fees?

Clear Lake offers exceptional value, especially for the quality of maintenance and layout. Expect green fees to range from $75-$110, which is a steal considering the course's consistent conditioning and engaging design. It feels like a private club experience without the hefty price tag.

Beyond the course, what's unique about the Clear Lake Golf Club experience?

Don't miss the clubhouse patio after your round; it offers stunning panoramic views of the 18th green and, of course, Clear Lake itself. Their local craft beer selection is surprisingly good, and it's the perfect spot to recount your birdies (or bogeys).

What's one crucial piece of advice for playing Clear Lake Golf Club well?

Pay close attention to your approach shots on the back nine, especially when the wind picks up off the lake. Many greens have subtle undulations that can send a slightly off-target shot into trouble, so club selection is key. Trust your yardage and commit to the shot.
