Lexington Oaks Golf Club & Omari’s Bar and Grill

Lexington Oaks, from the back tees, may be the toughest course I’ve ever played. Course was in great condition. Greens are medium to fast. Really well maintained. There is water on nearly every hole, and some LONG forced carries on a few of them. You can’t be crooked, AND you can’t be short. My only suggestion would be to put in some generous drop zones closer to the greens. It’ll keep play moving. I loved it and I’ll definitely be back.

This course has potential to be a really good destination but I’m not sure the owner is interested in that. The golf: Fun risk reward options. The pace is very slow and the digital cart will threaten you with a ranger visit for not keeping up…rangers…there were none. Greens are in good shape. Firm but somehow slow. Tee boxes and some fairways can be rough. Pick up out of the sand, it is not maintained….which leads to my critique. This is run like a business, which it is - I get it, but not run like a golf course run by a golf pro. This is an owner issue not a staff issue. If something affects their bottom line they will not adjust - it is not about your experience. Do not ask for a 9 hole rate nor refunds nor rain checks - or do it before you hit the turn. Play hole 10 and it pours? You’re done. They unfortunately don’t cater to an after 5 crowd as most everything besides the restaurant closes at 4:30. A variety of albeit little things have left a bad taste unfortunately and I won’t be back to support how my foursome was treated. It is fun and can be affordable but I can get a better experience with similar amenities and a better ‘customer experience’ at other nearby courses. They have their identity and their approach and they are within their rights to manage as they see fit. I don’t think I’ll support it any longer though. ADDITION 7/2/25. changing rating from a 2 to a 3. Rachelle - listed as Manager on the website - called and provided insight. Confirmed the person we spoke with is 'very by the books' and they do not offer rain checks once on the back nine (other local courses have systems that do offer per hole rain checks which has been our experience). That we did have four golfers - and 20+ holes among us left to play - she did offer us one 18 hole rain check to use for our foursome - which was one of the suggestions we offered at the course. I appreciate the call and flexibility. Will follow up again if we opt to play after checking with my foursome.

Good time golf pro was very friendly. Someone stayed there until I was done after 8:00 PM.
