FOREST LAKE GOLF CLUB (1980)

CENTRAL VALLEY REGION

Public: 18 hole -cost: $10 - $17

2450 East Woodson Road, Acampo, CA 95220

Tel: (209) 369-5451

Designed by unknown. The course is diminutive in length, but the fairways are protected by trees that have no empathy for the struggling golfer. Miss the short grass, and you have little chance of placing your next shot on the green. This course actually has 24 holes. On Monday and Tuesday, par is 60. During the rest of the week, par is 66. From Lodi (about seven miles north to the course): Take Highway 99 north to the Jahant Road exit and go west. Jahant Road turns into Woodson Road. The course is on the left.
