Wild Animal Lagoon

Wild Animal Lagoon   62 Iyannough Road, Yarmouth MA 02673

One of the real gems on our Cape Cod adventure was discovering Wild Animal Lagoon. This expansive course throws you right in the middle of a safari, your plane logged in a hillside next to a large waterfall guarded by a lion. 

Some of the most prominent animals are a giraffe, elephants, gorillas, snakes, turtles, crocodiles, hippos, and zebras. The large property allows for several long fairways with unique hole construction, with solid cement as a barrier for the holes. Water flows throughout the course and keeps you cool on a hot day. 

While the course does provide longer fairways and more challenging holes, some of them start to feel like straight putts, and may get a bit repetitive, which is what dipped our difficulty and creativity level a little bit. While there were tons of animals and facts about the creatures around the course, they weren’t as integrated into the course as we might have thought. 

Pricing is $11/person, so right in the middle of the Cape Cod range, but the superior quality makes it well worth it. Par for the course is 50 and includes a coupe of par 4s, and although our winner netted a 47 (and got an ace), we felt 50 was very much on target.

Overall, this was definitely one of the more superior courses we played on the Cape, with a good mix of all the things we prize on a course.
