Best in SB if you ask me
Favorite course in the area. Yes. Warren is nice but this has an interesting and fun layout. Some great risk reward holes and shots. Holes 12-18 are amazing. If you’re in new buffalo. Skip Whittaker and take the ride here. Worth the 40mins gets a lot of play so it’s a little beat up but what course isn’t right now
Hidden Gem
Was recommended this course by a local since I was coming from out of town. The greens were as pure as they come. Course conditions were phenomenal. Would 10000% play again. Great layout!
Blackthorn
Greens are very fast and pure! Excellent condition. The overall price was $15-20 too high but they are trying to compete with Notre Dame course prices. Of course, everywhere is over priced these days!
Goos course
Cpurse was in exceptional shape. Starter as usual was a bit rude. Club house staff were great. Snack bar hostess, attitude as usual. Pace of play front nine very good, back nine a threesome playing 5 balls. Overall good experience.
Good course with golf now hot deal. Lots of courses in the area. This is one of the better ones
Backed up a little but starter was nice, course was good, people were friendly. I’d play again.
Fun course with great conditions
The overall conditions of the course were very good, bunkers and greens were exceptional. The layout was enjoyable and more challenging on the back nine. The greens were relatively flat but ran true and quick.
Delay
Had 1 hour delay because of frost and failed to contact me
Best course in the South Bend area
We travel up to ND games every few years and have played a few other courses. This one is so much fun! I highly recommend it. It was a little more expensive than usual, but It was still worth it. Great layout and so many fun holes. Amazing condition.
Blackthorn
Love the course. Greens were treated for winter making putting more difficult and the ball wouldn't stick. Overall, this is the best course in the area for the money. Have to play here more often.
ND Pregame
Fit in 18 before an ND football game. Great layout, immaculate course and great fun to play. Highly recommend to anyone. Greens are fast and tight.
