I try to play this course once a year just to see if the conditions of the course have improved since this is the oldest course in Toledo built around 1922 when the back 9 was added on .... the course staff was very friendly how ever due to all the rain that we got Saturday night the traps were hard and chunky .... the greens were a bit slow but receptive to approach shots and a couple of greens had some burn out spots .... you need to keep your tee shots in the fairway because this course has a lot of trees

I've played this course but it was over 15 yrs ago and I had heard that they made some changes and switched some holes around . The greens were hard so your approach shot would not hold , the greens were slow and there was a lot of clover so you spent some time looking for your ball also on hole 8 if you went long or your ball didn't hold on the green your more than likely going to lose your ball as there is only about 5 yds to spare as your ball will go over the edge and into the creek and you won't get it back as there is a big drop off to the creek below ..... the staff was very friendly

this was my 1st time playing Brae Burn and I found it very challenging as to the layout of the holes as there are several blind shots on your approach shots to the greens like hole 18 you have to hit over a hill to a sloped back to front green and in front and to the left there was a pond that you don't see .... also where the pins were placed and the speed of the greens today ( FAST ) and sloped a 4 foot putt could end up 5 or 6 feet behind the pin ... so I had 5 ....3 putt greens as some pins placements were in my mind not fair to the average golfer .... but I would play this course again as the leaves were on the ground and we lost 4 balls due to the leaves in the fairways

played from the white tees... the greens were guarded on each hole with strategically placed bunkers.... the greens were great to putt on and ran at a good pace... on the # 1 HDC hole you do need a good tee shot to have a shot at the green as it is a severe dog leg right … the course was a little soggy in places but this was due to all the rain we've been getting lately ….very nice course

as stated this was my first time playing Devils Lake GC … the front 9 is easier than the back nine … the fairways were a tad shaggy but this probably because all of the rain that we've gotten in this area.... greens were very receptive and rolled a bit on the slow side … staff was very friendly

shot an 88 from the white tees … if you want some doglegs in the course you play this has it … not severe but they are there ... sand traps guard all the greens and are groomed … all the greens had been plugged and filled in and mended so they were very receptive to your ball flight … unfortunately they were a tad slow but I'm guessing during the summer months they would be faster and more treacherous … pace of play was excellent

we played all 27 holes … the first 18 are tree lined … the last 9 are more wide open but you need to know the course or you get yourself in trouble with blind shots or water.... due to the rain in area the last 9 had some burn out in some fairways …. over all not bad for the monet though

we played the gold which is just under 6000 on the gold / red course and very tight in some places which is tree lined and the white on the blue course at 3000 yds ..greens were good size but I thought were a tad slow... blue course was more open but lots of grass burn out due to the rain that we have gotten

due to weather in this area the rain must have been a factor as the fairways were a little rough … uncut … lots of doglegs and some water to navigate your shot

greens were slow and fairways could have used a cut … overall challenging with dog legs left and right … you can't spray your ball to much here … very tight in some places that are tree lined holes

I finally made it back to this course after a 10 yr absence … the trees have grown up since then … the course was in excellent shape after all the rain we had gotten over the past few days … management has always been very friendly and nothing has changed there … great course to play greens and fairways were in great shape

somewhat challenging as they had some long par 3s … the last 6 holes are across the road and same side of club house … were a little bit more challenging as you had doglegs and water

I wanted to play this course again as the last 6 holes were closed due to the rain that we have had all spring … they did a remarkable job of bringing the 6 holes to life as most of the holes were under water.... the only gripe I have is that all the holes had a red flag with no markings if it was a front , middle or back pin placement … it would be so simple to buy some flags red front , white middle , blue back pin placement … the staff was excellent upon checking in

if you want a challenge this is the course...you have undulated greens .. sloping fairways where several times the ball is below or above your feet …. we played from the whites and on a couple of holes you had to carry over a marsh … the greens were a tad slow .. not sure if it is the growing season or they keep it that way so you won't have a four putt depending on where the pin is placed... course was in excellent shape even after all the rain we been having …

This was my 1st time playing Pine View and it offered 2 different 9's as the front 9 was more forgiving if you would happen to spray a shot left or right … the back 9 was a little tighter and placing your shot.... with all the wet weather this area has been having the greens were nice … the rough was a little rough as it needed to be cut but with the rain we've had … I can see why it wasn't cut ...enjoyed my round

for all the rain that Michigan has had lately the course was perfect except for just a few spots … greens were ideal and at a good speed … we played the blue tees which set up some long par 3s in the 170 to 190 yd range as the pins were in the back … will play this course again

right from the get go we were treated by a very friendly staff when checking in... they informed us as to what holes were cart path only due to the severe rain conditions that we have been getting all month .. course was in great shape and the greens were putting a good pace … great layout and I clicked moderate for the course as you do nee to position your shots on a few holes as you could get blocked out by tress

I bought the GolfNow for 2 people because I had never played this course. Due to the recent weather that we had ( lots of rain ) in the area the course had very wet conditions on numerous holes. It was so bad that the last 5 holes were closed. The pro shop person was very nice and explained the conditions to us about the last 5 holes and told us we could play as many holes as we wanted which ended up playing the front 9 twice and holes 10, 11, 12 and 13 once for a total of 22 holes. However I wished the course would've called and told us about the conditions and that I could've either canceled my round or maybe used it at a later date since I had to drive 45 minutes to get there.

To start off the club house is not the one you see in the website photo … it's a trailer … then while on their burnt out dry driving range it was hard just to find a grassy spot to hit off of.... turns out the course was in the same condition … tee boxes were terrible and weedy and same way for 90 % of fairways.. greens also were burnt out in a lot of places … as for friendliness while on the driving range a customer making the turn must have complained as the conversation carried outside of their trailer club house and the guy in charge was cursing at the customer to get going or I through you out of here

I would never go back and play this course... I had spent $38 for me and my son to play it … after seeing the conditions of this course I wouldn't play it for $5 …

As for pace of play... there were hardly any golfers playing so it was a good pace
