Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Perham Lakeside Golf Club for ideal conditions and fewer crowds?

We recommend aiming for late spring, typically May to early June, or early fall in September. You'll find the course in fantastic shape, the lake breezes are pleasant, and you'll avoid the peak summer rush when local families and vacationers fill the tee sheet.

How much does the 'Lakeside' aspect truly influence play at Perham, and what should I expect regarding water hazards?

The lake is definitely a factor, especially on the back nine where several holes play right along or over water. Expect strategic carries and beautiful, yet intimidating, views on holes like the par-3 14th, where accuracy is paramount to avoid a splash.

Is Perham Lakeside a good value, and what kind of overall experience can I expect for the green fee?

Absolutely, Perham Lakeside offers excellent value for a well-maintained course with such scenic lakefront holes. You're paying for a relaxed, friendly atmosphere and a genuinely enjoyable round, not just a name-brand experience, making it a local favorite we often return to.

What are the must-play holes or unique features at Perham Lakeside that I shouldn't miss?

You absolutely have to experience the stretch from holes 13 through 15; they are the heart of the 'Lakeside' experience. The par-5 13th offers a risk-reward approach to a green guarded by water, while the par-3 14th demands a precise shot over the lake-it's a real beauty and a challenge.

What's the post-round atmosphere like at Perham Lakeside, and are there good options for food and drinks?

The clubhouse at Perham Lakeside has a wonderfully laid-back, welcoming vibe perfect for unwinding after your round. We always grab a cold local brew and a burger on their patio overlooking the course-it's unpretentious and exactly what you want after a day on the links.
