Found it a little hard to find the course especially since the cellphone coverage was poor. The course conditions were excellent. I will be back.

Waited too long!!

Course was ok and greens weren't very fast. Play was way too slow. We waited at each tee box between 5-10 minutes before we teed off. We quit after hole 14. Got tired of waiting to play!!
Staff was very friendly.
Don't think we'll go back.

Hot weather
Used cart

up north course without having to drive

I travel all across Michigan and to various other states and you can put this course up against any other public course. It is long but fair, has elevated tees and greens, makes you shape your shots both directions and is kept in very good condition.

Fantastick Staff

Came out with 70 of my friends for an outing. First time we have ever worked with this course. We couldn't have been more pleased. Michael, Randy and Dawn were so helpful and efficient that my family, who were running the outing, could actually enjoy it. The course was in beautiful shape. The cart kids were actually carrying clubs from our guests cars. In the 30 years we have been doing our outing, it has never ran so smooth. Everything was on time and our players all voted unanimously to return next year. Several of them had never played there before and told me they would play it again. Thanks everyone. Come see this for yourselves.

Customer Disservice

I made a tee time. I was on time. They had paired me with two other golfers who signed up on Golf Now. They weren't there. I inquired into when I could tee off. The attendant could not give me an answer and was very rude. I became agitated because he kept on raising his voice to my questions. I raised my voice and told him this was the worst service I had anywhere. He felt "threatened" and asked us to leave the course. I contacted the Assistant General Manager and explained the situation. The Assistant General Manager said he was going to assign this individual other duties than the front desk.I asked to see if I could get a free play later since I traveled 75 miles to get there. I never received a follow up call from the owner. I've played the top courses all over the state of Michigan and was never remotely treated like I was at Cedar Chase. In fact, I am a repeat customer, going there about a dozen times. I used to brag about Cedar Chase, but I will no more. The attendant was not customer oriented. I asked for a small bag of balls and he said he couldn't do that until 6:00pm. He had bags of balls med and large and couldn't process of taking them and putting them into a smaller bag. This was a horrible experience.

Bang for your buck

The price is right here!! Course was in good condition. Greens ran great. Fairways were nice, but they did not bag their grass clippings. Besides that, everything was great. Highly recommend this course to anyone coming in town for a few days!

A round with co-workers

Got together for a round with co-workers. The round started out overcast and a threat of rain. By the turn, the skies cleared and made way for the sun. The course was in good shape. A couple fairways were spongey due to heavy rain fall. But overall, it was a great round with challenging holes. We had a phenomenal time.

Negative Experiences

Manager was talking down to customers making other staff and guests uncomfortable. This is a common occurrence and staff turnover is high. Insulting and trying to embarrass players in front of others is not good practice. If the course was not as nice I don't think people would even play there much.

Very fair yet quite challenging.

Our groups only issue with Cedar Chase was we had a mid morning tee time we also had a foursome and we play at a sound pace, But our round was continually interrupted because we had to let a twosome play through. There was a twosome in front of us on the first tee, and we had to let 2 twosomes through us. We made the last twosome wait the last 3 holes. Cedar Chase needs to pair them up, Foursomes can’t outpace twosomes, it makes you hurry and letting them through screws everything up.

Good course. Poor customer service.

I was playing in a group of 7other guys who did not book through golfnow. So I called the course to ask if I could book through golfnow and still join the group and was assured that it would be ok to do so. However when I got to the course the manager Micheal refused my tee time and demanded that I join another single who I was paired with through golfnow. So long story short in order to play with my friends I had to cancel my tee time through golfnow and pay an additional $10 (full course rate)plus the convenience fees. In no way did this speed up play or inconvenience any other golfers. I don't know why he did it but as long as this man is employed I will definitely think twice about golfing this course again. The whole experience was frankly...well.. humiliating.

Favorite Local Course

My families favorite course, my wife and 3 year old daughter play this golf course very frequently. Our daughter has her very own routine and is treated as VIP when she enters the club house. The staff is very friendly and accommodating of us. They are the most family friendly course we've ever played, since we started bringing our daughter we have noticed many more people bringing children along. Nothing better than seeing families enjoy the game of golf together. The course is always in great shape and the crew is always working to improve their course. Michael the manager and our daughter have nicknames for each other and is always welcoming when we arrive. We cannot say enough good things about our home course and always encourage new people to check it out. We will continue to play Cedar Chase as long as they will have us.
