Avalon Lakes Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

How challenging is Avalon Lakes for a mid-handicap golfer?

Avalon Lakes definitely keeps you on your toes, especially with its well-placed bunkers and those signature water hazards that come into play on nearly half the holes. You'll need to think strategically off the tee, but the generous fairways offer a bit of forgiveness if you can avoid the water. It's a fair test, but don't expect an easy stroll.

What are the must-play holes or best views at Avalon Lakes?

You absolutely can't miss the stretch from holes 13 through 15 - they're stunning and really showcase the 'Lakes' part of the name. The par-3 13th, with its island green, is a true beauty and a fantastic challenge. Make sure to take a moment on the 15th tee to soak in the panoramic views over the water, it's a real highlight.

When is the absolute best time of year to experience Avalon Lakes?

We highly recommend visiting in early fall, typically late September through mid-October. The course conditions are usually pristine, the air is crisp, and the surrounding foliage bursts with incredible colors, making for a truly picturesque round. You'll also find the summer crowds have thinned out a bit, offering a more relaxed pace.

Can I expect a quick round at Avalon Lakes, or does it get backed up?

Pace of play at Avalon Lakes is generally well-managed, especially if you book an early morning tee time. Weekends can get a bit busier, so if you're looking for a faster round, target a weekday or that first slot out. The course marshals do a good job of keeping things moving, but be prepared for a four-and-a-half-hour round during peak times.

Is Avalon Lakes worth the green fee, and what makes it stand out from other courses in the region?

Absolutely, Avalon Lakes offers excellent value for the experience you get. What truly sets it apart is the immaculate conditioning - the greens roll true and fast, and the fairways are always lush. It's a championship-caliber layout that feels both challenging and incredibly enjoyable, making it a standout choice for a memorable round.
