Gateway Golf Club

Great course! Very well maintained. Greens are fast. Fairways are in perfect shape. Staff is very friendly. Drinks and food are very cheap. Definitely a hidden gem.

I have lived 20 miles from this course for over 20 years and I did not know it was here. So glad I found a hidden gem. It was an early season round but the greens rolled true. My only complaint was the weather did not cooperate. We were given rain, wind, and cold weather. Every golfer knows that is a bad combo.

Gateway is a great place to play, course is awesome. Challenging enough to bring out your game but also can shoot well if you play your game. But what is better than the course is the staff. From the starters who greet you when you get in to the pro shop and service. Everyone is so friendly.

Nice fall course, no leaves and player friendly layout.

Arguably one of the best courses in Southeast Michigan

Good pace of play for a Sunday. Greed were in good shapr

The course itself was good from to Green, but most of the greens were beat up and extremely bumpy at times…

I believe a lot of people don’t even know the course even exist. Course is in great shape. The greens is are fantastic and roll true. The superintendent is doing a great of a job!

We were the the first tee time on the Friday that me and my buddy played, they told us it was a back nine start, which is fine. However, they did not put the flags on the greens at all on the back nine so we were shooting blind into the green every time, if you’ve ever had that happen to you, you know how frustrating that is. We were able to look past that, however, when we made the turn to then play the front 9 we seen there were 3 foursomes lined up on the first tee box! I asked the starter what happened to the back nine start today, he said that it was a mistake and the course is now starting from the front 9 today. They told us that we could play the back nine again as nobody has made the turn yet. Or if we wanted to play the front nine he would have to pair us up with another two some while also playing behind 3 foursomes. Playing the front would have added atleast 2 hours to our time there. We grabbed the first tee time for a reason… the starters apologized and said they would talk to the manager to look into getting us a refund or a free round. Me and my buddy were not looking for handouts but this situation was aggravating, The manager refused to give us any compensation for his screw up. Only offering a apology through the starter, the manager wouldn’t even come out to see us to discuss the issue directly. The manager apparently said it was a “golf now issue” whatever that means. Me and my buddy ended up just playing the back nine again, but the managers customer service was absolutely terrible and it was just a frustrating situation. The course is in good shape, tee boxes are slightly beat up but still in good shape, greens roll very fast, a lot of downhill putts. Not my first time playing the course as I’ve had all good experiences here besides this time, but, I will not be back due to how the manager “managed” our situation after his screw up.

I have played here many times and still love the layout of this course and that is for sure the major draw here. BUT - they are charging a lot to play here and the condition of the greens are a bit poor. Greens are beat up mostly due to high volume and people who don’t fix ball marks which totally sucks. Many of the traps are being let go and overgrown. Parking lot is coming apart. Pace of play was very slow for a Monday.

The setup of the holes is great - but the details are being neglected.
