Beautiful Day

Course was totally open with no waiting time. Weather was fantastic and the price was wonderful. A great time had by all. Only disappointments were the discoloration of some of the greens. They rolled good, just didn’t look great. Also cart #21 was not the best. Slow to get moving sometimes. Been here several times and I will be back for more good golfing…

9 holes of fun

If you’re looking for a nice 9 hole course that has its challenges but can be played by anyone, look no further than Willow Run! The course was in great shape and there is some holes that are challenging!

Bare bones

Need to put a little money into this place. There wasn’t a single ball washer on any tee box, tons of ground under repair, trees and branches laying around, no water jug or fountain any where. Low price but quite frankly it should be lower. Felt like park district golf at best.

Decent Course but Needs Work

This course could be one of the better 9 hole courses in the area but the course is not well kept at the moment. The rough is over grown, you cannot find your ball sometimes when it’s in plain sight. The fairways and greens are also overgrown, greens are the length of fairways and fairways are the length of light roughs. If this course just mowed and took care of the fairways and greens then it would be great. I’ll have to give it another try later in the season to see if this was taken care of.

Great staff, but ...

If the course conditions were of the same caliber as the people that work there it would be an excellent destination, but ...

My Goodness

Please, do not waste your hard earned money to play this absolute dump of a course. Even if you’re a beginner and just trying to play, there are other 9 hole courses near by to get your practice in for a lot cheaper. Go eat $25 worth of food, poop it out and play golf on your poop. It’d be the same thing as golfing here. They don’t care about their course and it’s quite evident. They need to sell it, or just close it. Brutal.

Not bad!

This course is great for new golfers looking to take their game on to a longer than normal 9 hole. Most of the holes are straight shots but with the hills there it gives you’re 250 yard drive a chance to roll out to 300 or more. Hole 9 is my favorite because it’s a hole you have the chance to end your round with an eagle. Will be golfing here again.
