Fair but tricky
Please remember to hit an extra club into the green all somewhat elevated, and protected short is trouble , staff very nice especially Bob on bag drop,
Lions Paw
Great, friendly course. Generous off the tee, but plenty of sand to avoid around the greens. Great pace of play.
That you for the very nice Four Star review of Lion's Paw. We really appreciate it. Be sure to check out the other three Big Cats courses as well. Thanks again!
This is a challenging course, that alone no problem , this time though was Three days after a major rain event and it seemed as if no effort had been made to even clean up debris the sand traps were standing pools of water and those that weren’t were concrete due to non grooming again it is a challenging course though
Thank you for taking the time to review your visit to Lion's Paw. We apologize you had the misfortune of playing shortly after a large rain event. It was also during the week between Christmas and New Years and many of our maintenance employees were on a short break during this time, so staffing was not at its best during the time you visited. We apologize for these temporary conditions an we hope you will visit us again and see our continued progress. Thanks again
Thank you for the very nice four star review of Lion's Paw. January is certainly not the best time for golf courses in our region, but we are glad to hear you enjoyed your visit. Be sure to check us out in the spring when everything is at its very peak! It is quite an experience! Thanks again.

Played after 5 inches if rain the previous day, so challenging conditions. Nonetheless, course played nicely for late December. Cordial staff.

Vacation golf
My friend and I decided to lay at Lions Paw when we saw the course on GolfNow. The bag drop people were very friendly, and loaded the cart quickly. The course was very well kept, and the sand traps were the best kept that I have seen in the last several years. The greens were in great shape and were consistent. It was a great time. We look forward to playing the other Big Cat courses in the future.

Lions Paw
Course was the longest of the big cats. Greens were also the smallest.
Layout was not quit as creative as the others but we enjoyed the course and will be playing it again. Conditions were good and well maintained.
Staff was friendly and helpful.

Lions Paw experience
When we arrived we were met by friendly staff at the bag drop. Check in was a quick and easy. The gentleman at the bag drop gave us a quick o/v of the course and we were off. The course was in great shape and the greens ran true. I will be back to Ocean Ridge to test the other courses.

Beautiful Course
Loved the layout. Greens were sparse and putts bounced offline. If greens were truer, I would have rated the course as excellent. Hot Deal through Golf Now made it a good value.
Thank you for the nice Four Star review of Lion's Paw. We have been doing some significant work on the greens and they have improved considerably, even in the past cou0ple of weeks. We hope you will visit us again soon and see our continued progress.
