BEWARE

You may end up paying more than what are told when you book your tee time.
I booked a tee time one week before we played. The course website showed an Early Bird Tee Time Rate of $22 for 18 holes during the hours of 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. I verified the price with the course employee Hunter when I made the tee time. When we arrived at the course, we were told the price was $30…but they did us a favor by giving us the senior rate of $28. We didn’t argue at the time because the 4 of us had driven long distances (45 minutes and 1 hour) to get to the course and we wanted to play. When I got home, I checked the rates on the course website and they had removed the Early Bird Special sometime after we made our tee time…but I had printed the rates on their website when I made the tee time and it clearly stated $22 for 18 holes.
As for the condition of the course, they have made some improvements since the last time we played, but the course is still a cow pasture. Tee blocks and fairways have more weeds than grass, greens show fungus and bare spots, and due to overwatering, there are puddles of water in the approaches to the greens. We’ve played much nicer courses than this for less money and will not be playing this course again.

Not Great

This course is so beat up it’s not worth $20 for 18 holes. Almost every tee box is solid dirt/clay don’t come here if you don’t want to destroy your gear.

Poor condtuons

I took my mom golfing at Belle River for her birthday. The course was in poor shape the greens were all tore up not in good shape at all. Not to mention one of them looked like it had a burning spot on it. The tee boxes had barely any grass on them and hole 17s fairway was like a rough all the way down. Overall not a very good experience was not worth the money at all. Will not be going back this year.

Decent

Greens were in very rough shape, granted it is only April. The rest of the course was nice. Great layout, fair price.

Price was the only thing Right

Course was in horrible shape. Greens appeared to be disease ridden with plenty of bare spots. Also lots of debris. They were hard but slow as well. Workers seemed to be disinterested at best.

Members in front of our group were not aware of golf etiquette and parked their carts right next to greens.

Counterman inside of clubhouse was perfunctory at best and could have been hard of hearing as he ignored simple queries.

I would not recommend this place.
