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.

Was way to cold to play in high 30's /low 40's with sleet towards the end. The course was in great shape though I judge that the rough was deeper than I remembered last time I played Tanglewood.
Its a nice 27 hole layout... very friendly
Played in 4 hours on a Sunday. I played SOUTH and WEST. Well maintained. I like a lot more elevation change in a course though. You can run up most shots and the greens were in good shape. Wouldnt drive from Lansing to South Lyon to play there again, but if I was in the area I would definately be back.
27 beautiful holes that have a northern feel.
Driving range is nice
Putting green is nice
Chipping green is nice
And even a nice practice sand trap!
Once you hit the course you realize you are playing a nice course and you can just sit back and enjoy the round!
Play was quite slow, we waited on almost every hole.
We play ready golf, even though we were a twosome, it shouldn't have been backed up so that we were waiting every hole, sometimes for two groups. There was one group about 4 groups ahead, that was really slowing play down, but we didn't see any rangers out of the course.
Not going to get a much better course for the money
In summary, I REALLY like this course. It can be a bit short from the white tees but it is tight and will make you pay for a bad shot. Course was in great shape and the rough is thick. I'll definitely be back.
greens were just sandblasted otherwise course was in fair condition
Greens were sand blasted I would give it 2 weeks before I would play there again
great course
had great round little cold the day we want out, the par 3's are fun and over water
Nice Course but ran out of carts
The course overbooked tee times and was not able to get out on time due to them not having enough carts.
Very nice parkland course. 3 nines offer lots of variety.
3 challenging nines with lots of doglegs and some water. Very enjoyable round with a 4 hr. pace.
Wonderful track...challenges your thought process with plenty of options for shots
One of the best bargins in Metro Detroit with immaculate greens and a beautiful club house.
Hidden Gem
Course plays fair, but challenging. Well maintained, beautiful.
weather was bad
great price for a Sunday, but the weather wouldnt cooperate.
Easy to play
Wide fairway.
rare case for lost ball
27 holes
driving range
Each fairway is good condition.
I like this course fairway due to good maintenance.
GREAT TRACK
We played an 18 hole round for only $15 on Golf Now!
GREAT DEAL!!!
Good course
First, you should allow a sliding scale rather than middle or one extreme or the other...having said that, I used GolfNow.com and got a great rate on greens fees at the last minute which was a great value. I played on a week day, by myself in October so pace of play for me was excellent. I did play through a number of foursomes who all seemed to be very slow. Course was in very good condition for this late in the season. I have played this course many times and always find the staff a bit stand-off-ish.
GREAT CLUB HOUSE, GREAT MENU, AND WELL MAINTAINED COURSE
My wife and i play this course a lot. It's a great course and the price I pay for 18 holes thru Golfnow.com was very pleasing.
The course offers different scenery, distinguishing the three 9 holes from one another
The staff is great, from those in the pro shop to the cart girls. The grounds are always kept in a pristine state. There are challenging holes, but not too challenging so that customers are driven away from the course.
