Nice 9 hole course

Booked same day - went and played 9. The course was really nice. Pretty early in the season. Under new management. Some holes were straight and simple. Others had a dog leg to them, small drop offs, etc. It was a good time. I’ll definitely be back

So Much Fun!!

First off I’m 48 from Monroe Mi bought my 21 year old son clubs for his birthday he’s been talking about playing again. I bought him jr clubs when he was about 8 & they fit him til he was 12 & he hasn’t hit a ball since. Except for the narrowness of the course couldn’t have been a better course for him to start back up on. It’s a definite shot makers course & they are working on it. With side hill, downhill & uphill lies I usually I play on flat courses being where I’m from. My son lives in Clinton I picked him up 12 mins to the course. Formerly being Irish Hills G.C, it’s the exact opposite of what I’m used to you don’t find courses like this anywhere else around. also what a pleasant surprise a gentleman started mowing on 9 as soon as we started on 1 making it look so beautiful for me & my son being we were the only people on the course. We will be getting a membership here for next year what a wonderful experience we couldn’t have had more fun! Highly recommended

Casual Golf Reviews

The Gauci Golf Resort is a nine hole layout located in the Irish Hills area of southern Michigan. This course offers some of the most scenic views I’ve ever seen. A lot of elevation changes which create blind tee shots into small landing areas. The course is a lot of fun to play with almost every tee shot having you weigh the risks and rewards.

Overall Rating 8.5/10

Conditions 5/10
Right now as is I would give this course a five out of 10. I think given time it’ll come around and be in really nice condition it’s just not quite there yet. The greens are in pretty rough shape and could use work but the potential is there.

Friendliness 10/10
I talked with the new owner he seems like a great guy seems to really care and wants to do a good job with the course. He’s only been in ownership for four months so with time I think this could be a special place.

Returnabilty 10/10
I’m really glad I played here I’ll definitely be back. Some local knowledge would be beneficial for next time.

Cost 9/10
$12 to walk 9, at the higher end but not too bad.

Fun Quirky 9 Hole Course

Played the course on a whim while driving through the area. It’s a short funky 9 hole course that just made me smile throughout the round.
