Great course
Like playing a great course in northern Michigan.
Please don't waste your time
Shaggy fairways , beat up tee boxes
So many good courses to settle on this place
to spend your time & money
Terrible pace of play
10:20ish tee time on a Saturday morning, 6 hours and 10 minutes later we completed our round. The pace of play was terrible. More interested in profit than guest experience. Cart girl we saw once the entire round. The sand trap sand was rocky and parking lot almost. For the price paid I would go elsewhere. A fun layout but poorly managed.
Great experience
I don't usually review courses. I really liked this one from the time I walked in the door to walking off the 18th green. Will definetly be back .
Hard and Fast
The layout was impeccable. Winding through large home community and woods. You travel quite a bit on residential roads. And of course there is the infamous five minute cart ride to number 13. The greens were in great shape, rolled and true, but hard. Hit one shot into a par three and the ball bounced higher than the flagstick. Played early on a Tuesday morning. Staff was a bit frenzied with a large group coming in later that morning. I was speaking with some other golfers near the first tee and an employee yelled at us for trying to go out as a 3-some (which we were not). The course had some fairway scars in the landing zones and burned out sections along some of the fairways. I would play it again if I lived in the Brighton area, but not sure I would do the 1 1/2 hr drive to play there again.
Amazing
I love the layout and this course is always in great shape! The staff has always been very nice. The cart ride out to the back nine is very original and always a great way to relieve stress during a round.
Excellent for the price
Outstanding price. Course was in above ave condition considering the time of year in MI. It sas windy sk course played like a links course. It rain all day the day before but the course drained relatively well. A bit out of the way but that made for the course to be uncrowded which I liked.
Terrible Traps
Condition not the best, poor trap maintenance. Pin placements awful
Great golf Course
This is one of the best courses I have ever played. If not the best this year and I played a lot of courses.Worth every dollar and then some.Will be back next year and a lot more often
Nice layout. Great balanced experience
Very scenic and well-kept. A great balance between challenge and playability. Wide fairways are offset by challenging bunker placements and contoured greens. Overall great course. Back 9 showcases a 5-minute cart ride around a lake with 2 thoroughly enjoyable par 5's back-to-back.
Very Nice Course...but
Played late in the year but there were no tee box markers, takes for the sand traps and the traps were not raked at all. Overall, this is a very nice course.
Hidden Gem
I really enjoyed this course. The fairways are wide and fair but with challenges. The are a couple of risk/reward par 4 that are drivable. The greens while not fast where in good condition. Very picturesque course. The bunkers had quite a few stones which was the only bad thing I could say about this course, I will definitely return.
Very Friendly
The course was beautiful. There were some houses but typically well off the course. The fairways were open and Brent grass. There were a lot of divot marks. The course did not supply sand which was my only complaint. I would certainly go back even though it was an hour drive for me.
Grounds Crew Needs Help
Most the tee boxes didn't have the tee makers in place. If they were to be found all the different tee boxes (colors) were piled together. Course was in rough shape. I don't think a golfer or grounds crew fixed a single divot in the fairways all season.
Cart was in rough shape. We didn't notice our bumper was dragging until we were away from the pro shop.
Not a single time I have golfed here has the staff seemed friendly at all. Most seem like they hate their job there.
There are too many courses in the area to choose to here.
One of My Favorite Courses
This track has tons of character & is very fun to play. The fairways are nice & wide, but too far left or right & you'll pay the price. I have to play this track at least once a year.
One of my favorite courses!
Course is always in good shape, Staff always nice. Very pretty course. We drive an hour to come here.
Get there Early!
It is worth the drive to Timber Trace. The course is enjoyable and aside from some mediocre greens it was a great value. However, after telling me I was paired up, the pro shop attendant made no effort to inform me of who I was paired up with, which cart they had taken, or how many players I was paired up with. Furthermore, he decided to send the group off early without notifying me and made me walk to the first tee in order to get on a cart with a stranger. No real starter at the first tee either. This could be improved. Not a great way to start a round. I arrived 20min before my scheduled tee time, I would recommend arriving earlier to avoid such conflicts..
very good course
Excellent greens, challenging layout. Guarded fairways and greens make shot selection important. Well maintained greens and fairways too! I'm a fan of Timber Trace
Great conditions.
My partner and I got off early, so never had a delay. Conditions were excellent, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Will certainly put this course on our list to play several times this year. Highly recommend it to others. Fun course.
Nice course, good challenge
The course was in really good shape for early October. The greens were still decently fast. My only complaint was the carts didn't have windshields on them. When it's 50 and windy, the windshield would have helped haha.
dirt traps full of rocks poor value. slow play
