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.

Love the course alittle maintenance needed
Course is in great shape . Egyptian wheat is out of control . There are 3-4 holes you can't see the pin or the fairway . Egyptian wheat needs to be addressed . Hole 11 if you get witching 15 yds of marsh you can't see pin or fairway . Hole 12 you cannot see any fairway . Some trimming has been done but needs to be below 10 feet . Hole 13 you can't see anything around at or near lake . Same with 16 . Very out of control . Otherwise great conditions . Egyptian wheat will take over and it is .
Perfect
Our wedding party play this course before the wedding rehearsal and had a great time!!!! If you are planning a wedding at this venue we would highly recommend getting in a round in to celebrate!! Course is amazing and staff made sure our outing was perfect!
Love this course
Had one of my best rounds at this course. Everyone said it would be too hard for me. Nope. I love it. Challenging and beautiful. I especially love that you don't see everyone else on the course unless they're right behind you or right in front of you. Feels private and quiet.
Great Course, Slowest Turn in History
Absolutely loved this course. A good amount of water but overall conditions were great and the pace of play was just right. Highly recommend playing this one.
Slow
These courses need to pay way more attention to pace of play. No ranger came and groups were playing at ludicrously slow pace
Great course but overbooked
The course is amazing but when we turned the corner there was a league that didn't start until 5pm. We waited for at least 35-45 minutes for their last group to go out at 5:40. Leagues are awesome but don't have open tee times available when a league is scheduled to play as well
aerated greens
When we arrive, we were directed to start on the back nine. No problem, went well. When we got to the "front" nine (our back), 7 of the 9 greens were being aerated and not playable. There was no note to tell us that this was the case, which was disappointing.
Medoking, thank you so much for your awesome review and comments. We do cut the Phragmites down twice a year and you are correct, they are very invasive and even the DNR can't stand them. They are taking over the entire SE Michigan. I notified our maintenance team it's time to address again.
