Great up north course
I am a season pass holder and have been for the past two years. Great layout, greens are in great shape. It gets treated poorly by people who compare it to the other courses that cost 2-4 times what Summit cost to play which is not fair - you get what you pay for.
The course is closed on Wed and Thur for maintenance, which is too bad because while I like the course, it is closed 28% of the week, which just doesn't work for me anymore. The groundskeeper had some pretty strange pin locations this Fall - hole 8 the pin was put on the top of a hill on the green (see pic). A few weeks ago the pin on 16 was put on the front of the green were even if you were below the hole, you could not stop the ball unless it went in the hole.
Having said that, it is a great course for the money if it fits your schedule.
Fall golf
Played the Summit course after getting a hot deal. Word from other golfers is that other courses within the resort are better playing courses. Pace of play was extremely slow, taking more than 5 1/2 hours on late Saturday morning.

Great mature course in the Shanty Creek portfolio
Summit is a wonderful course and a great value for the money. I am a summer membership cardholder who lives here, so for $225 I can play as much as I want; cart fee is a bit pricey at $25 but I tend to walk as much as I can. I highly suggest you carry when you walk since it is quite hilly, especially on the back 9. A push cart is brutal going up and down the numerous hills. The greens are in great shape, some of the rough can get a little spotty in terms of turf but you'd have to get off-line quite a ways to find that. I hate that the course is closed on Wed and Thursday, and if that continues I will find another place to get a membership - I like to play 18 on the weekend and once in the middle of the week - the new closure days and not good for me.
Summit = Very average up north course, fair condition
Played here before, so knew what to expect. Okay course to get a quick round in, but very average for the Bellaire area. Shanty Creek Resort is obviously not making this golf course a priority, as the fairways are very spotty and in need of some TLC, and the rough is overgrown or hard pan for the most part. Greens are in decent shape and well kept. For $25 for 9 holes, you get what you pay for here.

We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting The Summit at Shanty Creek, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Good value for the money. Not going to wow you with amazing views and conditions you may get at other courses in the area but it’s a great price for what you get

Left a bad taste
The day started out great, we were greeted promptly as we arrived. The gentleman who took our clubs helped my wife check in, very pleasant experience. The course was not crowded, felt like we had it to ourselves. Very good course conditions. Upon completion of our round we drove to the bag drop area. There was a young man practicing his chipping behind the registration booth and a young woman seated in the booth playing on her cell phone. Neither acknowledged us I unloaded our cart, put the clubs in the car and left. Put a bad taste in our mouths after a perfect day. What ever you pay those two is too much.

The most absurd review I have ever read. Your day was ruined by a couple of young employees, getting minimum wage, and they failed to jump and kiss your cheap rear end the minute you finish your round?? Did you want them to clean your K- Mart clubs and put them in your car, then water your lawn?? Do us all a favor & take us fishing, Time for the nursing home Gramps!!
Summit course
Not bad. Fairways very good. Greens are wildly inconsistent. Hopefully, that’s a May thing. Some of the greens are HARD and fast, others are softer and SLOW.
Multiple par 3s OVER 200 from the Whites is a bit much. That’s something you see back on Blue and Black tees.
Arnies grill could sure use some freshening.

Really nice course, strange layout on the back 9 at Summit- could use more markers, especially for first time players- but I would recommend and play again if I was in the area
The course is challenging but a lot of fun. In great shape and super nice people working there. Cheers
