Hit the Ball in the Fairway and you should have no problems!

While the fairways still need to grow a little grass, they are playable and wide enough to hit - a mishit right or left may leave you in the water or unplayable. Greens are very true and running about the same as the practice green, Most sand traps are full of sand, some a little shallow ( I was in a few ).

For this time of the year - ok

The fairways were sparse - it's winter - the greens were in fairly good shape and ran pretty true - apparently they've had some recent flood damage but we worked around it. Would play there again. Facilities very nice and friendly staf.

Course good for this time of year

The course was in good shape considering this time of year. Most greens, although plugged, played well and all were leaf clean except for one hole. Fairways were in good shape for the most part.

Good Play - Not Me

The course was in good shape. Greens were clean, just a little slow but fair and consistent. A little trouble if you miss the fairways because the leaves are falling - I lot 5 balls!! Never did like hitting the ball in the fairway but necessary this time of the year. Everything cut well. Time running out for play in Northern Michigan.

Well Kept

This course can be a challenge. The course was in very good condition for this time of year. Greens were mowed well but leaves were all over - bring a blower!

Course in good condition

Fairways generous - but "leak" to the right so keep the ball left most of the time. Fairways and greens in very good condition - tee boxes could use some maint. good markers and sand boxes for par 3's. If you can hit the ball straight and where you want too -- then the course should be easy to handle.

Great Course

The course was in great condition because of recent rain fall. The fairways were clean, the greens were fair and quick. The fairways had ample room to hit one side or the other (who hits the middle!). From the white, a couple holes were long - 411 par four, and 510 par 5 - us old people have trouble hitting the green in regulation on the par 4. One par 5 was only 418 but needed the hits to be in the right place.

Too Bad

This course "was" a nice course to play before the logging of the trees off the fairways. The greens were slow but true. The fairways were mostly green but nature hasn't been kind with no rain - off fairways brownouts and dust. They timbered the woods and left a mess; often times, with their big equipment leaving tracks and gouges in the fareways - it's a shame. Maybe they will be back to clean up the mess they left behind.

Hello Pete! We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any negative experience you may have had due to the logging of trees. We understand that the conditions of the fairways were affected, and we will do our best to address the issues caused by the equipment. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Nice Course - Needs some care

The course was on pretty good condition. Greens were a little slow but fair. A lot of different slopes on the greens made reading and putting hard. Nice course but from here on out - bring your leaf blower!

Course in Good Shape

The course was in pretty good shape - greens a little slow but true, fairways clean, 2nd cut cut. Overall, was a decent course to play. Only glitch was foursome in front of our threesome were a little slow and didn't offer to pass. But not that bad either.

Nice in town Course

This course if fairly easy if you can hit the fairways - most of the time. The course was in good condition.. Greens a little slow but again in good condition - it helps to know where to land the ball on the green or in front of. The Blue tees are for the intermediate players, not the Whites which are for senior, seinors.

Course is in Great Condition

Always enjoy playing this course although it is out of the way. The course was in very good condition. While the fairways are fair if you can hit them, the course can be a challenge if you miss. Some holes you definitely have to choose your landing area in order to have another shot at the green. The course layout is a little confusing with the holes being here and there and moved about - better signage on some holes are needed.

Course in Great Shape

The fairways and greens were in good shape. This course is fair but you need to hit the fairways or figure a double boggy. They probably would get more play if the rates were a little lower - out of the way unless your staying at the resort there.

Good Shape for time of year

The course was in good shape for this late in the year. The greens were aeriated and sanded but still putt very well. The 1st cut rough needed mowing but it had been wet out.

Tight Course

The course was well kept. You have to hit it in the fairways - trees on both sides. You have to play "smart" golf and layup on the marsh holes. Only problem was the greens were wet from dew, and the worms had come up and left little piles of dirt all over.

Course in Good Shape

The greens were in very good shape - scuff marks on the green from "some" guy dragging his feet but not the courses fault. Fairways in good condition. Tee boxes a little on the tight side. All in all a good day for golf and the course was well kept.

Good Condition

Fairways and greens were in very good condition. Some of the tee boxes needed work but what the heck, I had the ball on the tee. Greens were fair but a lot of difficult putts going downhill and breaking - better be on the low side or you will be on your next putt.

Course Improving

Greens very slow - needs closer cut - but fair once you figure the speed. Fairways good shape but "second" cut needs to be cut - a little high. Looks like they will have a very nice outside eating area and restaurant due to open tomorrow - 26 May.

Very Nice Course

Course is in decent shape for the weather that we've had so far this year. The greens were on the slow side and needed some work. Fairways were ok to good.
