We love playing here. Course is not too long and it is very pretty especially in the fall! It's a challenging yet fun course.

Average small town course

Okay course. Staff treated us very well. Layout has several good and several weak holes. Had slow groups playing scramble in front of us. Condition of course was okay at best.

Great recreational course!

Nice and accommodating staff! Rain was forecasted so we arrived a little early hoping to beat the rain. They let us tee off early which was very nice- we didn't miss all the rain but were able to finish all 18 before the really hard rains came.

Beautiful setting; fun course!

Can't beat the beautiful lake views on a few holes or the chance to stop for a beer mid-round! Don't go looking for golf balls out of the fairway unless you can identify poison ivy and a few other rash producing plants!

GREAT COURSE

We always play Paw Paw Lake when we visit my sisters place on the lake. Great little course with lots of shot maker shots to execute. Harder than it looks for some holes even as short as it is. The 7th hole Gazebo bar is ALWAYS a must stop..both times you pass it. Enjoy your round.
