Solitude Links Golf Course & Banquet Center
Rating Snapshot
About
Solitude Links Golf Course & Banquet Center in Kimball is one of southeastern Michigan’s premier courses. Golfers from the Detroit metropolitan area and Port Huron and even as far as London in Ontario, Canada flock to the golf course. The layout is spread across gently rolling terrain with both woodlands and wetlands, providing a diverse mix of holes. The greens are large and fast with some mild undulation, some are even ridged or double-tiered, but good shots will be rewarded with level putting surfaces. The tricky opening hole is unique in that there are two greens, which makes it so that it can be played as a par 4 or a more daunting par 5 that plays over water. The challenging island green makes Solitude Links' par-4 eighth another memorable hole. Though you may get a break from the water on the back nine, at least on four holes, sand then becomes a more prominent hazard.

Great play some challenges and some easy holes.
Nice course lots of water in play I was very surprised by how nice it was kept. Par 3's are ridiculous though they have 4 of them that are over 180 yards
Great public course
Fore Lakes is a beautiful course to play. It gets a lot of play because of the value, but is always maintained well. It was a great way to spend a Saturday evening.
We weren't treated very nice!
My friends and I played Fore Lakes Golf Club near Port Huron on July 11th. To start with the course is pretty but it was kind of ruined right off the start. We had a deal to get free range balls and the woman behind the counter was not very nice to us and was trying to not give us our range balls. Then, when we went to tee off at the first tee the starter asked where we were from and when we told him where we were from he put down our city and asked if it was still there which irritated us before we even teed off! He also tried to get us to play from the white tees since we are over 50 but we normally play from the black tees on harder courses than Fore Lakes. (I think my tee shots of mine & my friends about 280 down the middle shut him up!) I also paid $2.50 more for a burger than my friend did and the service there wasn't good either. They need someone else running the course that treats the golfers better. - The course was pretty but a lot of the traps had gravel in them. We will probably never play there again because of the way we were treated and they had never even seen us as yet.
Great for the average golfer
well layed out with challenges with water on many holes. Very fair if you hit straigh.
It is chalenging with water and trees but most of them par 4s, and fun to play
I wish someone would have told us that leagues will start front 9 and seperate ladies league back nine. When we made turn we were behind the league and the fun was gone due to wait!
Great course, best in port huron area
I find this course to be the best maintained in port huron and the golf now price is hard to beat it's the only course I know of that is i the Port Huron area.
Awesome course ! Great price!
Awesome course ! Great price! Wish they offered more deals .
Long drive, but with a discounted golf it makes up for the gas!
Alot of water
As the name suggests there is alot of water. The coarse is not long by any means. But it does have some of the longest par 3's I have played, only one under 150 yards. The coarse is very fun to play.
The course is a great bang for the buck.
Great course, great staff. Beautiful course that is forgiving but challenging at the same time.
Beautiful course. Lots of water. Friendly starter and wait staff. Bunkers were out of play the day we went.
The bunkers were dug out, awaiting new sand. So we had to pull sand shots out. Guess that's not so bad.
Lots of Water
As the name suggests, water comes in to play on many holes. Allot of fun to play. But bring some golf balls. Great deal for the money!
This course is a little congested.
We were a twosome and we found ourselves waiting alot behind groups of golfers. I know that it takes alot longer for groups, so it should be noted that larger groups should let small groups play through. Otherwise it was a great experience and the weather was great.....
This course has a littie of everything you want in a course.
I like the course very much so, just make sure you have plenty of golf balls
bring lots of extra balls for the water gods
june 5/13 fantastic. best bang for your buck. its an experience that you will want to do again.
needs work
lots of weeds and bare patches right now now greens in rough shape have piles of sand on them
Fun Course to play
Fun and challenging, you have two green choices on the first hole. This course has new owners and they are starting to put some money into it. Some suggestions would be to have hotdogs and sandwiches ready at the turn or a phone on the 9th to call in food orders because if you stop for food it takes over 10 minutes to get your order and it slows the course down. Otherwise I am really excited to see what the new owners do with it. They also have a big clubhouse and good food.
TONS OF WATER!!!
Course is nice, but tons of water... bring extra balls
