Loon Golf Resort
About Loon Golf Resort
The Loon Golf Resort has grown to include a second location in Gaylord: The Ridge, formerly the Marsh Ridge Golf Resort. The Loon offers a townhome village with four-bedroom/four-bathroom units with full kitchens just steps from the clubhouse restaurant and the course. The Ridge is more versatile with hotel-style rooms, suites and free-standing condos, all within walking distance to the Summit Grill. Lodges named Copenhagen (11 rooms, one apartment), Summit (20 rooms) and Bergen (12 rooms) all feature a large common/recreation area. The Scandinavian Cabin sleeps 12 with six bedrooms, a fireplace, full kitchen and living area. Its 6,231-yard course is short but beautiful. The 6,418-yard Lakes course sports four holes on Lake Michaywe roughly four miles from both resort properties.Facts

Very nice course with great views & great staff.
Arrived early due to unfamiliarity with the area. Was allowed to go off a little early due to folks with earlier tee time were late. Course was very well manicured and greens were consistent. Lots of trees and a fair amount of water, but not a lot of bugs, thank goodness. Did lose a few balls in the woods and water, so bring plenty of extras. Will definitely come back again someday. Very nice scenic setting in Northern Michigan with great views.
Not a good course for a beginner
Slow play took almost 6 hours for 2 some to play 18 holes . While on back 9 the sprinkler head came on the fairway right next to the Golf cart everything got wet . Course is in Great Condition this course is not for everyone!
Hack hack hack!
Course was in great shape and pace was great, however I stunk up the place! Not long but tight in spots. Cut back jungle in some areas, and you can usually find an errant shot. Did notice additional landscaping, plantings, and workers.

Greens and fairways
Golf course was in excellent condition. Go play it for sure using golf now prices.
First time at the Loon
Great time. We'll kept course. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Great Up North Golf!
Excellent Condition. Great value. Perfect intro to northern Michigan golf!!!
Tough but fair
The course is fair even if you hit a poor shot you still have a good chance to save par
Would play again!
Interesting holes! Would play again for sure. Great value using GolfNow. Would not pay normal rates.
play the loon
If you haven't played the loon you have to try it. Its in great shape almost any time. you'll go back again.
Poor service
I was shocked with the way the bar staff acted when I asked if there was ever water on the course. She said "no, but there is a beer cart girl." I then said we didn't see her and her response was, "well her cart can't make it up most of the holes on the front." I recommended a new cart for her and got nothing but attitude back. All in all not impressed as other courses and there should be water out or a cart girl that comes to is in the heat we were playing in. I recommend any course but this one in Gaylord!
Great round of golf
The course is in awesome shape!!! The People who work there are great... Nothing bad to say about this golf course. We will be playing it again really soon:-)
Pace of play
There was a foursome in front of us that was slow otherwise everything would have been fine
Good outing
Had a wonderful time overall. Course was in excellent condition. Only issue was slow play with a foursome ahead of us that didn't offer to let us play through and no ranger on course.
Lakes
Challengeing course for the beginner to intermediate. Will definitely play again
There was no savings for using golf now
There was no savings for using golf now. The golf now rate was the same as the regular rate. The tee boxes need alot of work as well
Worth the time to play
Excellent condition. Greens were immaculately trimmed. Challenging but playable. Only drawback was the pace of play due to several large groups of foursomes. My wife and I played the front nine twice to avoid the slow play which is great because I like the fron better but both are beautiful.
disappointed in Gaylord
We booked on last minute golfer and that was the last good experience of this golf course. The golf course was in horrible condition from the tee box's with four inch crab grass to the fairways that look like the where rototilled and debris everywhere. Now lets get to the greens. They had sticks all over them and again look to not have been cut in a week. We actually found a roller from one of there mowers in the middle of one of the greens. So in a nut shell Dont waste your time and money
This course has been poorly taken care of.
This is not my first time at this course, and I was extremely disappointed with the pace of play, and the course conditions. It almost appeared that it will soon close.
I know it's early in the season however winter clean up should at least be addressed.
I used to be happy to bring people here.
Nice course, needs some TLC
Nice course, with lots of challenges. Several forced carries over marsh and water. Elevation changes, both up and down. Pace of play was great until two groups from an outing were put in front of us playing best ball. We would have played in 1/2 hour less, easily.
The course, however, needs some TLC. Lot of weeds on tees on fairways. Greens were in better condition. We played early in the year, so this may have been a part of it. We saw maintenance on the course, clearing leaves, etc from fairways, and areas near, so they were definitely working on it.
Would definitely play the course again, however. We got a great bargain with GolfNow, so the condition did not take away from our enjoyment.
The first 9 holes were fine but the back nine was so slow we had to quit after the 13th hole. The slow play was very bad & no ranger. At one time there was 4 of us on one hole. One group on the green, the second on the fairway waiting and the group ahead of us waiting to tee off and us also waiting to tee off . Never experienced that before! Not sure we will ever try there again.
