What people are saying…

  • “I always look for interesting architecture and a challenge. I experienced both at Lakewood National, along with a lot of fun. As a golfer from the Northeast, I have played many of the courses designed by the greats of architecture; Tillinghast, Ross, just to name a few. LWN encompasses not only influences from the greats of architecture, but a new great, Brandon Johnson."

    — Michael Keating – Lakewood National Member

  • “…As the Golf Course Superintendent, what I saw, was a very “hands on” approach to every feature on the golf course. Every bit of the golf course from end to end was looked upon with extreme attention to detail… Mr. Johnson conducted himself with the upmost of professionalism with Lennar and our management group…”

    — Jamie McCrosky - Golf Course Superintendent

  • “Brandon Johnson was an integral part of Orchid Island Golf and Beach Club’s successful 2023 renovation project. From developing a plan and implementing these changes, Brandon’s work has been well received by the Orchid Island membership. Brandon worked to meet a very tight deadline and made himself available for weekly onsite visits to ensure the project was on track and meeting our expectations."

  • "Johnson managed to produce two golf courses that residents and public guests would be glad to play over and over. Within the golf corridors, Johnson's team moved dirt with refreshing sensitivity, lending a sense of plausible movement that stands out favorably against most community courses...Johnson has shown a willingness to be bold with his green designs, which sometimes push the boundaries of what lay golfers might consider appropriate, in a way that reminds of Mike Strantz or Tom Doak at times."

  • "The Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club members are very pleased with the design changes that Brandon made on the course. Specifically, those included all the greens, green surround areas, some bunkers, practice facility, and selected on-course improvements to enhance the enjoyment for players at all levels. In addition, the project was completed on schedule and under budget”

    — Ted Hutton - Project Chair - Orchid Island Member

  • “It was a pleasure to work with Brandon Johnson during our course renovations at Silver Rock in La Quinta in the summer of 2018. It was evident from the very beginning and throughout the entire project, Brandon’s personal commitment and passion to take a very successful design and make it even better. The hands-on approach and attention to detail can be seen in the final results and overall satisfaction of our guests.” Randy Duncan General Manager – Silver Rock Resort
