West/North at Tanglewood - The Lion
Rating Snapshot
About
Tanglewood, also known as "The Lion," boasts 27 holes of championship golf, divided into the North, South, and West nines. The holes are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The North/West Course starts with the gentlest nine before moving on to the newest and arguably the most challenging nine. The undulating landscape provides a soft bowl-shape to many of the holes that help to keep errant shots in play by corralling them away from the bordering backyards. Water hazards come into play on seven holes on the West nine and the greens are also guarded heavily by pins. The West's third hole is one of the most memorable holes on the golf course. This tricky par 4 gets progressively more challenging as you move from the wide fairways to the steep and intrusive bunkers that lead to the green.

Great course. Very cold windy day. Wrapped our cart in ceran wrap to keep the wind out lol! Will be playing again come prime time.
Happy camper
To be able to play this late in the season was just a commodity. With that said, everything about the course was prestige. Minimal leaves. Good mowing on both fairway and rough allowed me to find balls easily. Played solo North/South and never saw anyone on course so for playing 18, the pace of play was an easy two and half hours. Loved the driveable doglegs off blues tees. If it's like this every year on out in 40 degree weather and still open, I'll be back!
North to South on Tanglewood
First play this year and first time playing South course in several years. Last time was prior to course changes.
Really enjoyed the round. Played as a twosome and never waited. Perfect fall day weather very comfortable.
Greens, fairways and overall course conditions just great.
Excellent Course
We played Tanglewood GC for the first time on Sat 10/21. We found the course to our liking. While it appeared busy we were never pushed and never waiting. The course was in good shape for late October with few leaves in the fairway or on the green. It seemed to be a bit of target golf but that was only because we had not played there before. We will put this course on our list to play again next year.
Greens condition
The greens on the course are very bad and loaded with sand from their airation. Could not put anything due to that much sand mix all over the greens. When I told them they told me oh well it the end of summer
Public course in private condition
Well maintained, friendly staff, beautiful scenery, drove an 1:15hr just to play from Ohio and never knew what to expect but would definitely be back with others.
Course had a different tee time, 30 minutes after my GolfNow had.
Enjoyable
Really enjoyed this course. Well maintained and pretty landscaping. The group of two in front of us invited us two to play along because the pace was running slow. Happened to be some young gentleman that worked there and they were a pleasure to play with and patient with us beginners!!
Very challenging Good variety of holes
Variety of slopes , bunkers and water hazards
Very challenging
Nice course
Not worth the wait
This used to be a very well manicured golf course, but now it is over-watered and the greens very average (or below). Additionally, every tee was a mess. The second tee on the West course was so wet that you couldn't even step on it--and it hasn't rained in 10 days! Every ball hit in the fairway ended-up with mud on it. To add insult to injury, we waited at least 5 minutes on every single shot--all day. There were no rangers on the course and take note that there is NO drinking water available on the course. Every other course I play has water coolers on every third or fourth hole. With all the construction going on in South Lyon, it appears that this course may turn into a housing development soon. Sunday afternoon was no peace-and-quiet. There was construction gong on everywhere around the golf course. It's very busy and loud. Overall, a very disappointing and underwhelming course (and surrounding area). I will not be returning there anytime soon..
South course
South course greens were like hitting in the sand. Just in terrible shape
