Played an afternoon round in the 94 degree heat.
Group ahead had 4 people, 2 golf bags??????
They let us play through on 2.
We quit after 16 as the 17th hole had 3 groups waiting counting us.
Marshalls were no help.
Lots of non-golfers trying to play golf.
Go for a bike ride for goodness sake.

Course conditions improved over the past couple of years

Course was in fairly good condition.
Pretty slow play due to some seniors playing who shouldn't have chosen this course.
No marshals.

Great deal at $35 for seniors.
Layout is great, greens are stupid fast,

Early pace was perfect.

Staff cordial and starter got us out early as we arrived well before our tee time.

But.... the course was way too wet. Water often but not quite so deep all at once!

Staff was earn, inviting and accommodating.
Got us off before the large group of locals.
Course was in great shape, but greens a bit slow.
Considering the time of the year, it was above expectations.

Great layout.
Great price.
Very slows players all over the course but that's what happens on a 60 degree day late in November in Michigan. All the horrible players were out there for a last hurrah.
Nothing anyone could do about it.

Excellent price; not crowded on a Monday.
I like the fact that most of the holes need some planning to be successful. Some water, some sand, some length, some trees, some doglegs....everyrthing you can and should expect.
A bit out of the way, but worth the extra mile or 2.

Excellent price on a GolfNow Hot Deal. Fairways immaculate. Greens in great shape. Sand traps still need some work to recover from the wetness.

I love the different "character" that each hole presents.

Fairly wide open, but don't go messing with the trees or traps. Lots of 40' pines; some OB; traps; a bit of water; but plenty of room to roam. Greens are in great shape and held the short irons well.

Cart paths need repair.

Another excellent experience at Paiute. We got caught behind 2 groups of real slow hacks at the turn and the course was accommodating enough to allow us to switch to a nine that was open (it was a slow day due to the windy conditions).
A marshal was extremely helpful in finding and returning a new Cleveland 60 degree to my playing partner.

Great price, amazing conditions for the time of year. We returned a couple of days later to try the Sun Mountain Course after playing another local track that wasn't quite up to this quality level (and was more expensive).

The tips are amazingly long....the regular tees provide a great course for the average golfer as long as you don't stray too far off center.

We'll be back.
