About

My golf game is always a competition with myself, which undoubtedly I find myself laughing. Golf has many facets which I love including honor, respect, and challenge.

I Love This Place!

The course is always in perfect shape, and if you don't think the course is long enough (which I think just right) play from the blues; if you think the pace of play is slow, don't book during peak times (a lot of golfers, including me, love this place), and if you have a problem with the staff, let them know, they are more than accommodating. So, take that you golfers that complain, this course is GREAT!

Worth the somewhat short drive

Not often is everything at a golf course perfect. I didn't have any food so I can't rate that. The Staff and Bev Cart were superb, so many times staff at a golf course are mundane, not these people! The course was in perfect shape. I will be back!

A Perfect Par 3 Course

This is NOT your average Executive Course, it is by far that. Every hole has extreme elevation changes which challenges even the Pro's. This #1 Par 3 Course in America should be on your bucket list.

Great Course

This course was beautiful. Just when you may think you have an easy hole the undulating fast greens will throw off your score. On this Saturday everyone was out to enjoy a perfect day so the course would naturally be slow. I didn't find any slow players, it was just the amount of golfers enjoying their round of golf.

I would recommend this course if only for the staff friendliness. The course was in impeccable order especially for a Fall late afternoon. Well worth the drive from the Twin Cities.

MUST PLAY THIS COUSE

Fantastic round of golf. Everything a golfer wants in a day of golf is presented here. Challenging fairways, greens, and layout. I can say this course will be one of my favorites.

WHAT? NO BUNKERS?

We felt this course was mediocre. What surprised us was the lack of bunkers. There are none! The club house probably had been very nice in it's time, but to call this course a "Country Club" is misleading. It could be considered a fun course, but only if you are drinking. My first inclination that this course may not be an ideal golf outing was finding my way into the club house on street level I found the bar dimly lit and asked how to get to the pro shop. Pointing to a narrow staircase, the bartender said downstairs. This unlit staircase was actually scary! I could not see the steps. I would recommend they help taking clubs from the parking lot down to the course level. My clubs are heavy and I would have appreciated help. It is a distance to carry them.

Early Season, Yet in Excellent Condition

What a great way to open the season with a round on a beautiful, well kept course! The winter didn't hurt a single blade of grass or maybe it was the grounds keepers who are so adept at their jobs! PS I would upload a photo, however I left my phone in the cart. I only realized I left it at Stone Bridge when I got to my home in the UP. Those folks were jolly on the spot to let me know they had it! Thank you!

Fun Course, I love it and the staff!

This year Tyrone Hills was the first and third course I played into the 2014 Golf Season. The golf course had only been open 3 days after one of the worse winters on record, yet the course was ready for the season. I could have chosen among several courses to play on my way home in the UP, but I wanted to play Tyrone Hills again. Great job, Dennis!

This course can be played in any weather condition! It is in perfect shape.

In the pouring rain I drove down a beautiful country road and soon I arrived at the clubhouse. The parking lot empty, save for one car, I thought perhaps I would cancel my tee time... that is until I saw (surrounded by a gorgeous resort) a 20 foot statue of a lady golfer posed in a perfect back swing. I knew, neither rain nor snow would keep me from teeing off! If she can stand there in any weather, I can play with rain running down my back!
I began the round, with rain obscuring my vision, on the Champion tees which I knew would extend my length of play, but I was the only golfer crazy enough to play in the constant downpour. I was amazed that at the end of the season the fairways were manicured and cleaned of all leaves and the greens were fast with no standing water and as if they were rolled just prior to my arrival.
On the 4th hole, I saw another golfer behind me and asked if he would care to join. As a regular on this course, he was invaluable. The fairways, the hazards, the greens each were discussed and my score immediately dropped. This challenging course, with each hole completely different from the next was a constant surprise of glee!, The rain did not let up and surprisingly did not pool anywhere.
I can't wait until I can play this course again, but on a sunny day!

Very enjoyable and well maintained

Very nice course considering it was the end of the season, but it was occasionally scary with so many beautiful houses lining the fairways! I loved to see people fishing in the many ponds and lakes.

Last day it was open

For being the last day the course was open, the grounds were kept nicely (of course fall leaves can't be helped). The personnel everywhere were so friendly EVERYONE I MET WAS GREAT! and I would say this is the first golf course I found this to be true of everyone!

I have played this course continuously for 6 years and it is one of my most favorite courses ever. Each round will bring new and exciting challenges including a vast range Tee Box distances and unforgivable pin placements.

I still recommend this course, however there are muddy tracks from the equipment throughout the fairways.
