Challenging But Great For All Skill Types

This is the second time I have played here and I am fairly new to golf. This course offers a lot of great challenging greens and is secluded amongst many trees. I highly recommend as the staff is wonderful and the course is extremely well maintained. Warning though, both times playing we ended up stuck behind a few players which slowed the pace of play a bit.

Slow pace

For early spring the course was in decent shape, only problem like most courses in the area they overbooked tee times. The first 9 took over 3 hours to play. That’s ridiculous. pace was a bit better on the second 9 but still almost 6 hours to play 18 was a bit much.

Not the course it used to be

Traps not raked at all. I’ve played this course for over 20 years. This is the WORST SHAPE I’ve ever seen this course! I paid $59 and invited a friend who had never played. I was embarrassed.

Disappointed,

Terry

Left early

We couldn't finish. Fairways missing grass. Hitting from bare clay, very compacted soil in the fairway. Saw carts doing laps around greens parking on fringe. Very backed up, 3 groups per hole. Left at the 12th hole (4 hours) and won't be returning.

The course is in rough shape

The greens were bumpy and none of the sand traps were raked. I was very disappointed with the conditions overall it was like they are just doing the bare minimum to keep the course open

The leaves

It was just so frustrating, leaves at the tee box, leaves in the fairway and of course leaves on the green. Saw bunch of folks with portable blowers, well, we found the hard way why. Lost half a dozen balls. That’s fall golf in Michigan. It could have been better. A lot of other courses had done a better job. Take it for what’s it worth.
