Stoatin Brae at Gull Lake View Golf Club and Resort

Thought the piece of property and land was very impressive, highest point in battle creek area it seemed and you can see clear from one end of the course to the other. very impressive how the holes are shaped to the land and not vice versa.

The green complexes were absolutely fantastic, all the greens i thought were pretty small in size. which became even smaller when you take into effect the complexes. even in early growth thou they played rather firm today but rolled so true.

the start of the round, holes 1-5 were pretty uneventful, felt like you just go back and forth (one hole north, one hole south, etc.) with 4 par 4s. Once you get to the par 5 6th thou the round really started to become something great

i do have to say i think the back nine is one of the finest collections of holes ive played in a while. the 3 par threes are absolutely phenomenal. the par 5s feature favorable landing areas and great greens made pars feel great, imagine birdies feel even better. the stretch of 10-14 was just spectacular.

overall i would def say as the course grows in it will only become even better. peak season i would pay in the $105-85 range for this course when its fully grown in. Doaks associates did a spectacular job routing the course with the land and i left thoroughly pleased. Wind howled all day and made for a very difficult scoring round, but still had a great time. highly recommend it

The course was in great shape and the staff and all was wonderful. The clumps of grass clipping on top would be my only complaint but it wasn’t a large deal.

First of all, the course was nice and did offer me a hole out eagle on 13 for my birthday. With that said, I believe at $135 for a round, a course should be near perfect. Instead we were welcomed by grass clippings everywhere, even in the greens. Carts were subpar, and for the money your paying should have GPS or sand or anything other then a dumb usb port. I’m happy I finally played it, but probably would never go back based on this experience.

Downhill the past few years. Was in top notch condition a couple years ago

Course was in fantastic shape and greens were near mint condition. Course is well taken care of - this is a course where you can truly use your full bag of clubs, lots of strategy. Will be back.

Fun and challenging course! Course was in great condition -- greens were very challenging but fair. A lot of variety in this layout with great use of the elevation changes. Would play again for sure!

Not many flat spots on entire course. Unique and beautiful layout. Much more challenging than expected and ratings indicate.

Second time playing this course, much better shape than the year before. Go out and play and enjoy the views

Great layout, need to know your yardage. Weather was warm light wind. I will definitely play again.

I thought this course had all the elements you are looking for in a round of golf. You have part link style along with different elevations. The course was in great shape!

Course was in great shape! Never have played a course like it - it is different than other links courses.

Undulations on the greens are challenging.

Only complaint is the employee in the halfway house was rude.

This is one of the best courses in the area. I love playing here. It is always in great shape.
