Top Notch

Playing at Pine Knob golf course is a great way to put your GolfNow Rewards to use. I paid $34 each for a foursome then added a $10 reward coupon on each person's cost to get it down to what we all are used to paying for a round. This is one of the premier courses in our area and if you get a chance to play here, take it. While many of the local courses are showing the effects of our summer drought, Pine Knob is in excellent condition. It was not crowded and the pace of play was excellent.

No Starter

First three and a half holes were tense. Foursome ahead, Two gents and Two ladies. Let a single pass on # 2 but were not about to let me play through. On the first par 5 I sat on the box for 10 minutes. After teeing off I saw they disappeared over the hill and I thought I was clear and hit my second shot up . When I came over the hill one of the ladies was coming back to me. I got a lecture even after apologizing. Blamed me for no entiquitte . Blamed the clubhouse for not pairing up singles. I just picked up my ball and skipped the rest of the hole muttering a few choice profanities to myself. Rest of round was perfect. Need a "STARTER" and course marshall. Great course otherwise.

Hidden gem

Most challenging greens in Oakland County. Need to be aware of the hill at all times when putting. Not long but greens make the course!

Guy behind the desk is a jerk. Not even professional at all. Dressed like a hillbilly. Very rude. This course paired us up with a father and 5 yr old. We complained that we shouldve been paired with an adult. He said you didnt pay us you paid gplfnow. Call them and tell them to give you your money back and I will rebook you 40 minutes later for $30 per person. When we paid $19. A gentlemen with a collared shirt walked up to us and had us go outside with him. He took us to the starter and sent us to do 9. As we approached hole 8. We were waiting a very long time. Guess who was holding everyone up...The guy with the kid. Seriously. They took off at 1200. We teed off at 1230. We decided to cut our loses and went home. We are in the business and have never been treated like this. Maybe the website should have an age limit. I understand we can be paired up. But not with a child. We feel we should be refunded.

Wonderful Course!

Had to go to the Detroit area on business and decided to play a course in the area. Sorted golf now choices by customer ratings and this one came out on top. Having played it, I see why. Absolutely in excellent condition tee to green! Almost like playing an expensive resort course. We were there on a Monday so it wasn't terribly crowded. My fiance and I played the first seven holes in just under an hour before we caught up to the group ahead of us on number 8. Took another half hour to play 8 and 9. We stopped for lunch at the turn and you should too. The burgers are to die for. Our thinking was we'd let the group ahead of get out on the back nine and we'd catch them around hole 6 or so and it wouldn't slow us down much. It didn't quite work out that way. We had started ahead of two older women on the front nine and forgot about them since there was no one to slow us up. We took and hour for lunch and when we went to the tee on the back side, these two women were just teeing off. Needless to say, they've never heard of the concept of letting faster golfers play through so the back nine took over two and a half hours. Frustrating but the weather was perfect so we just tried to relax and deal with it. Because of the course conditions and the weather it turned out fine. If you're in the area this is one course you shouldn't miss!

The course was aesthetically very nice. A beautiful day but due to the recent rains it was very wet and supposedly "cart path" only. Unfortunately there were no rangers to reinforce their rules. So there were a lot of non compliant golfers which lead to golfers pushing us because we stayed on the paths as asked. Other than that would probably play again when the conditions are drier.

Long Time Since I Played Here

Price was right on a GolfNow.com Hot Deal so I went back to play Pine Knob. I couldn't remember a lot of the holes but the course was in perfect shape. Lots of fun and I can't wait to go back.
