Michigan Meadows Golf Course

I have NEVER left a review, neither positive or negative, and due to the conditions of the course today, I decided this would be my first time. I've played this course maybe a dozen times prior to today. But this was BY FAR the worst condition this course has ever been!!! I played with a buddy and the two of us can normally fly through a round especially when we aren't behind slow players. Today the course was wide open and thank God it was because it took us FOREVER to find balls that were JUST OFF THE FAIRWAY!!! Despite mowers on the course during our round, the grass looked like it hadn't been cut in months. There were dandelions EVERYWHERE and that especially made finding our balls EXTREMELY difficult. Had I known this review had the capability of uploading images of the course, I'd have taken a shot of each whole and the ridiculous condition they were in and subsequently loaded them up for your own eyes to see! I'm glad we were able to get a discounted price for the course, but had I known it was going to look like it did, I doubt the money we saved would've been worth it.

I had a decent time, but the course was way crowded. When drinking with your girlfriend, do all the sane people in the world a favor, and don't go golfing! If you can't get out without her, I understand, but is it necessary that she get sloshed and back up the rate of play for everyone else?

The course conditions were decent for late September. I like the spaciousness of the course, and despite the rate of play (help us out golf ranger) it was a nice afternoon. Later in the evening we witnessed a Hawk-nado, it was the strangest thing. The friendliness of the staff had a bit to be desired, but for 12 bucks it is hard to go wrong.

I like this course, some strangely laid out holes but overall it's fun and a good course to practice on.

Course well maintained for being late in the year. Will be back next week on my day off .

Beautiful course, very friendly staff, excellent polish sausage.

Otherwise great course. Really enjoyed the Michigan hole

Good course, good price, good staff with plenty of places to lose golf balls if you don"t hit it straight and challenging for your intermediate golfer.

Michigan Meadows course played good there are some bare spots on the fairways and the rough, the greens are in excellent condition overall the course was in good condition. Before showing up I received an email which stated that we could only play front nine twice. At the course nothing was mentioned and we played all 18 holes, that was great. They do require us to have the confirmation number to get our tee time and price quoted.

Great course for the beginner golfer some great features like the sixteenth hole make this course fun. On a maintanence side only complaint was that some greens could be repaired.

This is a good course. Unfortunately, not fault of the course it down poured heavy 3 times which created a back log. Otherwise you could complete the course in 2.5 hours instead of 4 hours. I loved the 16th green as it is cut out in the shape of Michigan. I would go back again.

Not bad for $13 but wouldn't pay any more. Be careful if you bring a cooler with beer. They have a guy who's job it is to drive around and stalk out your cart. Very annoying, especially since a beer girl is nowhere to be found.

Thought the course was in good shape besides the lack of respect from the players. Found many divots not replaced and ball marks not repaired. Would return, but hope to see more care from players.

The course had experienced a great deal of rain recently so the cart paths were underwater which caused everyone to drive just off the path and looked to be doing quite a bit of damage to the grass bordering the path. There were also large areas of casual water. Tees and Greens were in good condition.

What should have taken 2.3-3 hours to play for my friend and I to play, took close to 5 hours due to the slow pace of the other golfers. The course grass was not that well kept but we will credit that to the showers the day before. Lastly the cart girl just zooms by mid back swing with no care in the world.

The quality of the grass is not good, and the lady was more worried about just making sure the tee box on #1 didn't get backed up than anything else. She sent a group of 5 out followed by a group of 6. We were the 3rd group of 2 backed up behind them at every hole. It took us 45 minutes to play 3 short holes and we just ended up skipping 3 holes to avoid it any further.

Nice Course. Just wish that when they book outings on the weekend they tell people before you make the tee times. Outings are not normally booked on weekends. Got stuck behind the outing, pace at times especially slow at the beginning.

Clubhouse:
We arrived 15 minutes before our tee time only to be told that they were about 30 minutes behind due to a frost delay. I was encouraged by this, feeling that they must really take care of their course. However, there was no food or service in the clubhouse on Memorial Day while we waited. Lady taking money was rude. Clubhouse is old and in desperate need of remodeling.

Course:
Tee boxes were COVERED in weeds as well as most of the course. The sand traps had a few pieces of sand on top of what felt like cement. Easily the worst sand traps I have ever hit out of in 35 years of golfing. The greens, although small, were in remarkably good shape and were quick, considering the abysmal shape of the rest of the course.

Overall:
An ok place to come out and play if nothing else is available or if you can get a deal for under $15. Anything more than that, and I would look at other options.

Needs some TLC. Older course and comfortable to play. Love the 16th hole green - it is in shape of the state of Michigan!

played early Saturday morning & the course was empty due to the light rain & cold temps.
played the course in 4 hours.
very nice course which is well maintained, greens were very fast & fairways were cut short.
fairly short course as many of the holes are par 4 doglegs.
hot dogs at the turn were great value.
will definitely play again.

I think this course ,although not long, is very tight pretty tough for the average golfer.
