Lakowe Lakes Golf & Country Estate: The Lagos Getaway That Feels Like Another Country
If you’ve ever wanted to leave Lagos without actually leaving Lagos, Lakowe Lakes Golf and Country Estate is your best shot (pun fully intended). Sitting quietly on over 308 hectares of pure calm, this place is what would happen if luxury met nature and decided to stay together forever.
They call it West Africa’s Best Kept Secret, and they’re not wrong. Between the Balinese-inspired cottages, championship golf course, and fourteen man-made lakes, you’ll wonder how something this peaceful exists a few hours away from Lekki traffic.
A Quick Look Around Lakowe Lakes Golf & Country Estate
Lakowe Lakes is a lifestyle. Whether you’re there for hospitality, golf, or real estate, the vibe is the same: soft life, steady breeze, and zero noise.
Think:
- 18-hole golf course (if you’ve got a competitive streak)
- 9-hole mashie course for practice
- Five food and beverage outlets for post-game fuel
- Sports center, tennis court, and gym for the fitness folks
- Short-stay cottages so cozy, you might forget to go home
Basically, it’s giving vacation goals, retirement goals, and main character energy all at once.
Stay the Night: Balinese Vibes, Lagos Address
The short-stay cottages and apartments at Lakowe Lakes are inspired by Balinese design, giving you that “I’m on an island” feeling without needing a visa. Perfect for quick getaways, couple retreats, or just an excuse to nap somewhere quiet.
There’s something for everyone, from the golf-curious to the food-curious, and when you wake up, there’s a lake view waiting for you. It’s like your body hits reset the moment you walk in.
Golf, But Make It Lagos
The Lakowe Lakes Golf Course is 18 holes of pure precision, designed by Robert O’Friel. Even if you’ve never held a golf club in your life, you’ll still appreciate how scenic it is.
Not into golf? Try the Golf X experience, a tech-meets-leisure setup with simulators, games, lounges, and even party packages. Basically, it’s golf for people who also like vibes.
And if you’re feeling brave, lessons start from ₦40,000 for members and ₦60,000 for visitors. (Or just go for moral support and cocktails.)
Living the Dream: Homes at Lakowe Lakes
Now, if you’ve ever dreamed of waking up to lake views and birds that actually sound like nature, Lakowe Lakes’ residential estate is the move. Homes here are designed for peace, privacy, and that “I’ve made it” feeling.
Homeowners get access to:
- Fairway and lake views
- Tennis courts and wellness centers
- Private jetties
- On-site dining, watersports, and nature trails
It’s like Lekki Phase 1, but with less flooding and more oxygen.
The Lakowe Experience: Where Lagos Slows Down
Lakowe Lakes feels like the Lagos we all dream of, clean air, no horns, no generator noise, just serenity. You can golf, swim, eat, host your events, or just sit by the lake doing absolutely nothing (which is a valid activity, by the way).
So, whether you’re visiting for a game, a getaway, or to finally buy that retirement home you’ve been saving for, Lakowe Lakes Golf and Country Estate delivers the calm Lagos promised but never gave you.
Catch you outside. Don’t say we didn’t plug you.
