Course is looking good

The course is in good condition except for the 15th hole. This hole is unplayable. My second shot in the fairway plugged into wet ground and I couldn’t find it. The price is right and I will be back

Slow Play

Course was in very good shape. Played longer then the yardage due to no roll in the fairways. It’s been a rainy spring. Very slow play due to many fivesomes and even a sixsome in front of us. Went into the pro shop afterwards and told them I played there 2 days in a row and never saw the ranger once. Reply was the ranger was suppose to be circulating around the course. They said they allow fivesomes. Maybe they need to re-evaluate that policy. Rangers need to do a better job.

Great bang for the buck

Made last minute reservation on golf now for $10.

It was cold and sunny the day we played with a bit of a breeze. The course came out of the long winter very well.

The greens had not been cut in quite a while, but they were surprisingly fast.

This is a municipal course that is well kept and fun to play. Their staff is also very friendly so we almost always have a good experience here.

Nice municipal golf course

Rated against other municipal golf couses it is one of the best. Personally i think the course plays a little bit tougher than it's slope rating. Overall a great place to get in a round of golf and the staff is very friendly.

Good Value for the money

Course was in ok shape. Once you get through the first 3 or 4 holes along the highway, it gets a lot more interesting. Overall well worth the money.

No warning of scramble being played before our tee time when we checked in.

When we checked in for our 2 some tee time of 12:48 PM, no one told us about a scramble tournament preceding us by two groups. This scramble had teams of 8 people. Needless to say we caught up to them by hole number 8. When it took us 45 minutes to play 8 and 9, we decided to throw in the towel! We stopped at the clubhouse to complain and all that was said was you weren't able to be warned because you booked on GolfNow and you can go back and play the front nine again if you'd like! Not even a sorry for not giving us a heads up on the potential for slow play.

Nice variety of holes

This is a very challenging course with good variety of holes. Well maintained for a city course. Would highly recommend. Pace of play could be a little slower, but be patient. The price is right.

Municipal Gem

For a municipal course that gets a lot of play the course was in good shape. There is a nice mixture of easy, moderate and very challenging holes. You will use all the clubs in your bag at Michigan City South. Some water and quite a few hazard to keep it interesting. Not much sand, although I managed to hit into a few bunkers. Good value for any level golfer.
