Open off the tees tricky around the greens

Really nice course. Greens hard and fast. If you land in the wrong place can have some very tricky putts. Most fairways wide open but gets harder the closer you get to the greens. Had lunch and food is good. Also good selection of beer. Great course for the cost.

Great greens

Overall course was very nice. Great greens, very underlating which is the courses defense... Has nice generous fairways and not real long. Fun course to play with some beautiful holes.

Thought Holes #3-5 were tight then you go under the highway to cross to the other side of the course then beautiful wide open almost prestine course. Enjoyed the rest of the course,

good fairways. good greens

The course is in a lot better shape than the last time I played it. The only way I play this course is when it can be played at a discount. Without a deal the price is too high for what it is.

"New" 9 is great

Holes 6-14 bring you under a road to the newer part of the course. These holes are very linksy and are in great shape as well as visually appealing. The holes before and after are traditional tree lined Michigan golf holes. Still pretty nice. A potential problem for female golfers as there are absolutley no restroom facilities on the stretch of holes on the other side of the road.

This course has an excellent blend of straight forward and challenging holes!

This is the 2nd time I've played here and I love the course! We really enjoyed the mix of the original course with the new holes. Condition of the course was beautiful, lush, green! For $25 per player, Royal Scot is a steal.
Since players make the turn 2 miles from the pro shop, we wish we had brought some sandwiches.

Interesting Mix

Our foursome came down from up north to try Royal Scot as some place different. We enjoyed a very leisurely round at a very good price on this very interesting mix of older, rather traditional holes and a 'middle' nine of more newly designed holes. The round was leisurely because there was neither anyone in front of nor behind us.

A Tale of Two's

Royal Scot offers a unique experience. Holes 1-5 are part of their "normal" holes. The fairways and greens are in good shape! Greens roll true. Nothing too out of the ordinary. However, holes 6-14 are on a whole different realm. 6-14 are a little more like links style. Everything from the tee boxes to the rough are in fantastic shape. Their beautiful holes. 15-18 are back to what 1-5 are. Holes 6-14 are worth the price of admission alone...if you get a deal on GolfNow.

GREAT COURSE FOR THE MONEY!

Royal Scot was in great shape when I played. Greens were clean; fairway was cut to a playable height and was well manicured. A really enjoyable round on a course that does not break the bank to play.

Royal Scot

Great booking through Golf Now. Good rate for 9 holes. Tough, windy day, but the course was in good condition and the sun was shining. No complaints.

Two for one

My wife and I discovered Royal Scot as we travelled through lower Michigan. Played on a very cool day that repeatedly threatened rain. An older mature parkland design with very pleasant routing and moderate challenges. at the fifth hole you pass through a tunnel and are transported to Scotland... Six through 14 are Links style golf, and superbly laid out before you. My wife and I enjoyed this course very much. The greens were large, humped, and quick. The fairways were prepared in outstanding condition, the rough was lush and difficult.. You pass back through the tunnel to holes 15-18 the challenge continues as these holes are an excellent finish to this fine design. In short Royal Scot offered an extremely wonderful experience... It did rain off and on, making the experience just right....and if the rain became too much, they have a bowling alley connected to the course.. How cool is that..??
