Marovitz is a convenient place to golf in the city. It is right in the heart of the city and several of the holes are along Lake Michigan. I really expected the pace to be very slow being a Friday at 11:00 but was pleasantly surprised at how the friendly rangers kept things moving. Given the amount of play they get, the course was in very good shape. The greens were in very good shape and true as were the tee boxes. This is a legitimate part 4 course especially if you play the blue tees. There are many trees but the fairways are pretty wide. Overall, it was a very good experience and I will definitely return.

Sick course!

Well what can I say first time out there exceeded expectations the staff was friendly and helpful I was able to tee off a little earlier than I thought. Bunkers were fresh and fluffy And the fairways were well-maintained! 10/10 would recommend!
