Play this golf course!

Wow. Where to start. Hidden gem indeed. Price was reasonable on a holiday weekend. Played 18 holes and didn’t see anyone else. Spectacular views and well manicured up north golf is the theme here. Will be back and making this part of our Fourth of July golf rotation.

Gaylord’s Hidden Gem

First time playing this course. Absolutely outstanding. Course was in fantastic shape. Nice layout and good mix of open holes and tree lined holes. Greens were smooth and have some fun breaks to them. Add this course to your Gaylord Golf Mecca rotation!

Course is Great! Pace of play was not

Course was great. Grip and rip holes mixed in with placement golf. Course was in pretty good shape. Pace of play was atrocious. Zero enforcement to speed up play. Golf shouldn’t take 5.5-6 hours for 18 holes.

Gem!

Finally had the change to play this gem. What a great course and layout. This course is the pinnacle of risk/reward golf. Place your shots and play smart and you can get around this track with a relatively good score. We were lucky to get paired with a single who plays this course weekly and was able to give his guidance on the course. Pace of play is my only concern, but that's a concern at every course in the metro area especially on the weekends during the summer months. This course deserves more hype than it gets. Skip the over hyped Greystone right up the road and spend your time and money here. Can't wait to get back!

Hidden Gme!

This course is the hidden gen of Up North golf. Course is in perfect condition, which will challenge golfers of all skill levels. Course plays longer than you think. Lots of risk/reward opportunities around this track. Will be back to play here again, price is good, pace of play is outstanding (not sure we say any other golfers!). Very scenic and definitely has that Up North feel in the woods away from it all. Practice facilities were top notch as well, Driving Range looks like it belongs at a PGA tournament!

Great Course!

This is a fun course that presents plenty of challenges. Ball placement on several holes is key, however, on other holes with a miss hit shot, you can still make up for it with openings. Pace of play was brutal, but the course itself makes up for that. Will play again.

Great Course!

Excellent course. This course makes you think from tee to green. Lots of elevation changes and undulations, not only in the fairways, but the greens as well. Beautiful views. Will play the course again. I played this as part of the Group Golfer deal. Will buy and play here again!

Great Course!

This is the second time I've played this course, and it was just as good as the first. Nice up north feel, well maintained, scenic, and definitely challenging. This course makes you think about each shot and has a lot of high risk high reward opportunities. Placement golf should be the mindset. Will be back to play again and again.
