About

Lakewood Golf Club opened in 1944 and has since seen a remarkable amount of golf action. President Gerald Ford, Bob Hope and many famous players have graced the course with their presence. Perry Maxwell designed both 18-hole courses at Lakewood in the 1940s though today it is a member of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. Both courses are Championship par-72 resort-style parkland layouts and feature beautiful 200-year-old oaks, 10 large water features and lush fairways. Point Clear’s Lakewood Golf Club has seen tornadoes, stars and pros; you can feel the history in the grass. Lakewood at The Grand is one of the golf courses within the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. Other courses include Capitol Hill, Silver Lakes and Grand National. We recommend renting a vehicle and driving through Alabama and Georgia to best experience the Golf Trail.

Dogwood

The Dogwood Course at Lakewood measures 7,063 Yards / 6,458 Metres from the tips, but it has five sets of tees from which to choose from, so it is accessible to golfers of every ability. The course winds in and around natural marshland and a pleasant mixture of pines, magnolias and ancient Southern American oaks. A pleasant blend of fairway trees, water features and green-side bunkers create challenges for all golfers and the greens run true, which is a testament to the maintenance crew. Bermuda fairways combine with TifEagle putting surfaces on both courses to give you the best golfing experience possible.

 

Azalea

Lakewood’s par-72 Championship course gets its name from the beautiful azalea bushes that lines many of the fairways, which consist of rolling undulations that create a very pleasant round of golf. Manicured greens and distinguished cuts of grass around bunkers create a resort-style atmosphere on the Azalea course that is on par with the great Arnold Palmer courses in Florida. Water features on seven of the eighteen holes, whilst southern oaks and mature trees fill every unused patch of fairway on the golf course. A journey into the deep south is what you will find on Lakewood’s Azalea course, and a bigger challenge than the Dogwood awaits.

The Lakewood Golf Club has the full suite of facilities including a driving range and putting green, rental golf equipment and lessons, plus a beautiful clubhouse with golf shop and restaurant. A full beverage-cart awaits playing golfers on the course which is fully stocked year-round. Other facilities include bag storage, club cleaning services and repair, and locker rooms for all golfers. The golf shop comes fully stocked with the latest equipment and brands including Titleist, Footyjoy, Peter Millar, Donald Ross, Callaway, Under Armour and Levelwear.

The Open 2024
This was a first for me! When I first saw there was a possibility to choose a package deal through Voyages, I researched the company; found out they were highly recommended & highly reviewed, so I contacted them. Harry answered me, & I worked with him from start to finish. He was an exceptional tour guide. He made all the transfers, accommodations, golf times, & Open tickets for me & my son. I had to make a few adjustments along the way, & Harry took care of them ease & professionalism. I definitely recommend using Voyages Travel for your next thrilling adventure!

Hawaii Tour 2025
"The Best Golfing Holiday When You’re Not a Golfer" I have just returned from the Hawaiian Voyages.olf Tour which I purchased as a surprise gift for my husband’s birthday. I was there as a non golfer and had a fabulous time, at no stage did I ever feel left out. Harry, Glen and Gayle were so professional in a very relaxed and welcoming way. We were looked after extremely well and they were most accommodating making sure that we had a truly memorable holiday.

Canada Tour 2025
Our trip to the Canadian Rockies ran so smoothly! Harry, Glenn and Gayle work together really well as a team of tour leaders to make it stress free and fun! It was a great balance of golf and free time. We were worried about playing 9 rounds, but each course was more spectacular than the one before so we are glad to have had the opportunty to see Canada's best! We met wonderful people and will definitey do another tour through Voyages.golf.

Vietnam & Japan 2024
As a single traveler now a multiple Voyages golfer (Fiji Golf Week, twice and New Zealand ‘22) it’s a bit like travelling with family, only better…. everything is organised & Harry makes it all hassle free!! Gayle, Glen & Harry all work fabulously together. Vietnam & Japan (back to back trips) was a great experience- fabulous mixing golf with some sightseeing & timing with the Cherry Blossom was picture perfect (icing on the cake). Well Done Hedleys
Katrina Anderson
Fiji Golf Week 2024
We have been to Fiji twice with Voyages Golf. It’s a great way to travel, play golf, meet like-minded people and experience the local highlights. Accommodation is always good and so is the easy, relaxed competent way the tour is run. The communication by Voyages is second to none. In fact, the family that run this business are very invested in ensuring everyone has a positive experience.

Queenstown Golf Week
Our Queenstown Golf Week 2024 was our 3rd trip with Voyages and we have at least two more booked. From the first email to the final goodbye Voyages are exemplary in every aspect. No detail was overlooked and they make you feel so very welcome. The accomodation at the Crowne Plaza was great - perfect central location... the golf courses at Jack's Point and Millbrook were outstanding and our day trip to Walter's Peak was amazing...superb BBQ buffet. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending Voyages if you want to experience a great golf trip.
Russell & Maureen Mathews
New Zealand 2024
My husband & I have just returned from Queenstown NZ with Voyages golf. Our experience was exceptional, from airport pick, amazing golf courses and functions. This family run business is truly one of the best tours we have been on, they are well organised and treat everyone like family. I would highly recommend their tours and we will certainly travel with them in the future. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Open 2023
Voyages.golf was recommended to me thru the R&A for the Open Championship. I am very pleased I chose them to handle my vacation details. They offered a great package to tie in with my Open tickets, allowing me to go about with my plans while they took care of all the details from Hotel and transfers to/from Open venue. I even added on additional vacation details which they handled and everything went off without any issues. Voyages.golf kept me up to date with all details and any changes that arose. From start to end, they were on top of all details and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested.

Hawaii 2022
Fantastic trip to Hawaii with the Voyages golf group. Excellent choice of golf courses and accommodation and a fun group to be with. The Voyages group take care of everything and sort out any unexpected problems quickly and smoothly. This was my 4th trip with them and I keep coming back because of what they offer in great golf adventures and the care they take to make it a unforgettable experience. Looking forward to my next trip with them.
