Very enjoyable.

This is a great couples course. Fair for men, seniors and ladies.
Play here every year 2 or 3 times even though we live in Lake Orion.
Worth the drive.

Sooo slow

Course conditions ok but pace of play very slow. Fairways are tight, and with crowded conditions, we felt we were ducking the entire round from players yelling Fore. Interesting layout. Not a long course but provided opportunities to use different clubs. Staff was very friendly. Would not be able to recommend.

It’s OK

Average course. Tracks are pretty linear. No real clubhouse, but adjacent restaurant is nice. We walked the course, but carts looked nice. Busy day, but everybody easily stayed on pace.

Windy weather

Substantially Overbooked

Like most Golf Courses, they are overbooked and there is a ten minute or more wait at each tee box. I paid for 18 Holes but, only played 9.

Great Muni for your money.

Plenty of challenges and Tuff pin placement. Can be forgiving if you miss the fairway.

Very well maintained.

Poor Drainage

Don't come here if it rains the day before. The course was partially flooded. They need to install some drains and feed it to the creek(s) on the course.

Great Local Course

Great course to play, however pace of play was slow. Need to have a ranger to push slower foursomes as 18 turned into a 4.5 hour round because of one 4 some slowing everyone up.
