Excellent course
ALWAYS enjoyed playing this course in past years. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 and late year course improvements, was unable to schedule play this year. I REALLY missed the play, scenery and ambiance of this well kept course. I SHALL RETURN!
Best Course Conditions
Played today and I always like playing here and conditions for this time of year were awesome...best greens of any course I've played recently.
Pierce Lake is best course for the value around.
Pierce Lake golf is worthwhile and dinner in Chelsea
First, if you want to end your day properly you have to visit the Common Grill in Chelsea. It is not to be missed for four star food.
I have played Pierce Lake a number of times. It does get busy and pace of play can be a problem especially on #18 with the highly challenging part 3 over the junk. Not a short poke. The course is always well kept otherwise. The greens put true. There is a tee for for everyone.
Overall great place, I just didn’t like the starter adding a stranger to our group, it wasn’t that crowded
Beautiful Course
This was my first time playing Pierce Lake. Course is well maintained and challenging. Tee boxes fairways and greens in excellent condition! Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend!
Worth the trip
Chelsea is quite a hike for us but getting out to this course is always worth the trip.
Good course Good pace Good price
All is great at this course. However I would bring cheap golf balls. Lots of wetland and unplayable areas that eat your ball. Can’t find it. Especially if first time playing. Not long but not easy.
Best Value for Great Course
Course layout is challenging but fair...one of my favorite course around
Great day!!!
Hadn’t played there in long time but it was great day for golf. Played straight through with no waites which was unusual for how busy it was. Carts were good. Various tee boxes which changes some holes immensely so you can fit your skill level.
Pierce lake
Very scenic course With a lot of wasteland. Blind tee shots and elevated greens. Tough to navigate the first time around. Looking forward to playing again.
Great value, variety, choices and challenge
I've been playing this course several times a week on average since taking up golf 7 years ago. The layout and holes provide a good challenge to the intermediate golfer. With tee boxes well designed to change the look of many, if not all the holes, taking the course from easy to challenging.
For the amount of play the course is always in great condition. Greens had been running slow this year with all the rain, but are starting to speed up. There are several holes prone to cart path only when rains are heavy.
Speaking of cart paths... In need of major repairs across the course. Along with most all of the cart and walking bridges in need of replacement. Heard these items are being scheduled for repairs.
Some additional features on the course would be nice, like a fairway clear bell on #15 and steps to the #18 green. Upgraded sand in many bunkers would also be nice.
Along with upgraded carts to include GPS and windshields!!! These have almost become expected at every other similar quality course I've played.
Course conditions would rate 5 stars with those additions.
Club house has the basics with friendly staff and great service.
Pierce Lake Golf course
I have been playing this course since it was opened. It is one of the best public courses in Washtenaw county! The greens are comparable to those you find at Leslie Park or the U of M Big Blue course! Keep up the good work!
Great course
We drive 70 mins. at least once a year to play Pierce Lake.
It's always been in great condition and some challenging holes. Plays well for all skill levels.
Good Job Pierce Lake!!
Due to all the rain we have had in Michigan the course is just now getting back to its normal 5star rating
Pierce Lake “All grown up”
I lived in Chelsea for several years. That was in the early 90s. I played this course when it first opened and remembered a few of the holes but it’s been at least 15 years since I played it. It’s a great track and it’s a great value. The course has matured and taken on its own personality. Very impressed, it’s worth the drive and I’ll be back.
2 different 9's
Nice course with 2 different challenging sides, and a killer last hole!
