Love seeing deer and herons

Course was in great shape and the weather was absolutely fabulous. I wish I could say the same about my game. Can't wait to get back there again.

Everything was excellent except for the cart paths. They really need to invest in making the paths better than they are or remove them entirely. The paths were pretty rough.

Great Layout

Had a great day at Pierce Lake Saturday. Play slowed down due to the group ahead of us but the Ranger was nice enough to move them along. I would recommend this course to anyone. Staff was very friendly.

Great layout, excellent condition, no Driving Range

SO I got a great Hot Deal this morning so it was a no brainer. I played during the 1st Michigan home game so pace of play may not be typical.

I showed up 45 min before my tee time to warm up only to find out that there wasn't a driving range. There was no chipping on the putting green so that meant only a few putts before heading out.

I got out as a single in front of 4-some so I played quickly. A group let me play through on 4 and I paired up with another single. The 2 of us played 27 holes in 4 hrs.

The tee boxes were mostly level and had good coverage. There were a few divot but with the long par-3s it wasn't bad. The fairways had good coverage and minimal divot damage. There were some pitch marks on the greens but they roll well with good speed. The greens were tough with some big ridges and elevation changes. only real complaint was that the speed on the back was slower than the front.

The first few holes looked tight but were actually fairly open in the landing area. With the 6 segments on each green it was easy to plan an approach. The greens held well. The tee shots were intimating with several shoots and optical illusions. There were many forced carries on tee shots, par 3s and approach shots forcing layups on a few par 5s.

The staff was friendly but not overly helpful. The staff in the snack shop was watching the game when we made the turn but the service was quick and polite.

Worth the price of admission!

This county run course was meticulously landscaped and beautiful. Rough was dry as is normal for this time of year but led to good distances. While we rented a cart, you easily could have walked...a good distance but no significant climbs. Received a treat as the Blue Angels practiced for a show at Willow Run Airport. Screaming!

Great Layout

Have played Pierce Lake multiple times in the past but this was the first time this year and I can say that the course was in great shape. Since we played on a Thursday, the pace of play was great. The two of us finished in a little over 3 hours. The layout of the course is challenging because you're always playing between the trees. Even though the fairways are wide, the trees give you a feeling of being really narrow. Other then the few ball marks that people did not fix on the greens, overall the course is in super condition.

Play here!

We golf nearly every day and make it a habit to visit other courses at least once per week. Pierce Lake did not disappoint! Great views, carpet like tee boxes, wildlife abounds. Even treated to fly over by Blue Angels while playing.

While we normally walk and carry clubs, this course did have some holes that were far apart, not suitable to carry clubs.

Great outing

Pretty day on a nice golf course with nothing but friendly employees and staff to make it a perfect day at Pierce Lake Golf Course.

It is a "friendly course" and designed to meet your skill level at the Black, Gold, Blue, White, or Red tees.

Thanks!

Course was excellent except there are numerous blind shots with no notice that a drop area is available on the other side of the hazard; such would speed up play and eliminate provisional shot time. Drop area notices should be by the regular tees.

I like the course. I have tried to take a group of 20 senior players there.Management refuses to give any breaks for guaranteed golfers. All I requested was 11:00 prices at 9:30.A10:08 tee time is listed at $19. Just work with me.We all pay taxes already to support this course.
