Myth Golf & Banquet - Regulation Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Myth Golf & Banquet, formerly known as Beaver Creek, tumbles across rolling hills. Situated next to Lake Orion, the golf course sits on protected land that is home to an abundance of wildlife, including sandhill cranes. There is both an 18-hole championship course and a nine-hole par-3 course. In 2007, when the Myth was established, several improvements were made to the championship layout, improving its conditions and making it more challenging. The scenic golf course features boardwalk cart paths that cut through beautiful pine forests. Don't get too distracted by the scenery though because there is plenty to keep you busy including multi-tiered greens and water hazards on almost every hole. The 13th is the golf course's signature hole. This par 3 plays from an elevated tee over water to a generous green, offering a great opportunity for a birdie.

Hole 13, fun par 3 Photo submitted by Tait2dn on 05/09/2013
The Myth
Drove down to the myth for a hot deal. The day was a little rainy, so the course was empty and I just played at the pace I wanted to. Of course it’s not always going to be that way but that’s not what I’m reviewing. It’s not a long course so you’ll have to keep your driver in your bag for a lot of the round. The greens will challenge you for sure. They did some work since last year and rebuilding some of the pathways through the trees that used to make it sound like there was a gun range nearby. I like this course and will be back.
Good not great
Course is fine enough for what the greens fees are, but boy oh boy you’ve got everyone piled up on top of each other when it comes to tee times. Played one hole and then waited behind three groups every hole after that. Ended up grouping up with two guys in front of me and really took our time and still had to wait for two groups in front of us. Shrink the game.
Course conditions
Lots of great improvements to this course this year..Tee boxes much better and greens are rolling true.
They're doing a lot of work
This will be a great course. You can tell they're putting an effort into making things good.
Great course!!
The Myth is always a pleasure to play. Great course.. excellent staff!!
The Myth
Good name for this track. A terrible layout, THERE are far too many "Blind Shots" that cause a log jam. We quit after 12 holes and 3.5 hours of waiting on every hole. The Mythe is just that, something that is not as it should or could be.
3.6/10 Golf Course
Played 18 holes at the Myth on Saturday, 9/20 and it was arguably the worst conditions I’ve played all year in Northeast Metro Detroit. The greens, fairways, and tee boxes looked dejected, and for a course that is very tight/difficult to begin with, the condition of the course made it really unenjoyable.
Electrical wires exposed in the middle of the fairway, nails sticking out everywhere from the wooden cart paths, dirt tee boxes… it was bad, and paying $60/man felt wrong.
Side note: The attitude from the guy in the clubhouse about providing my DRIVERS LICENSE NUMBER to rent a golf cart was also not appreciated.
I’d find somewhere else to play!
Terrible pace of play
Over booked. 3.5 hours for 9 holes. Tee boxes were sand. They apparently don't have grass seed. Go down the road and spend a little more you will be happier.
Illegal Pin Placement
To start I’ll say I’m a 15.9 handicap golfer so I’m good not great at golf. The course is very narrow but that has nothing to do with my low rating. I came on a Friday afternoon and there were multiple pins placed on hills that made it impossible to keep the ball anywhere near the pin. Hole 5 had it placed in a spot where if you miss the ball rolls completely off the green down a big hill into just dirt about 75 feet from the pin (the ball would actually roll backwards even if you putted from the low side). If the pins were placed in legal spots and had actual flat areas, this course would be solid, just difficult to score on.
