The Meadows

Being late October the course was in very good condition. New bunkers and tee boxes are being installed now and will make the course more challenging next summer. The course Always plays slow on the weekends so be prepared for a solid 5 hour plus round. The greens are playing very fast so maybe approach with one club less than you would normally play.

Very nice course, some of the holes are challenging and others are just normal. Greens are lightning fast rough is just that rough. They could upgrade the carts, add gps would be better too.

Great course, play it several times a year, highly recommend!! They just had state finals there, the greens were rolling@13-14, awesome!🤩

Was not that long from the whites as i was playing with a 3 some. Very fun and enjoyed it! For a longer hitter you better be ready to play with course management in your mind.

We had a great time course was in great shape. I always enjoy playing here. Best course in the Grand Rapids area!

I’ve been fortunate to play several top public & private courses in my 42 years playing golf - The Meadows is a great track! Course was in excellent condition, greens were quick & rolled great, along with the pace of play being perfect (4 hours for 18). I’d strongly recommend getting out for a round.

The was a ourse ranger on the 1st tee but that was the only time you saw him. Hw was essentially the starter. By the time we got to the 4th hole, a par 5, we were one of 2 foursones on the tee. There was also a foursome playing their 2nd shots. There was no group on the green..As busy as the course was (July 4) it would have been nice to see a ranger roaming and get the slow groups to pick up the pace.

My first problem occurred while checking in, I made the reservation through golfnow saying I only have to pay $60 due at course, and when I checked in, I was told I had to pay their daily rate at $75 saying there’s a miscommunication because golfnow and the clubhouse. Second problem was the round lasting 5 hours, the pace of play is horrible, the 3 rangers they had that day never enforce pace of play. Greens were punched but very fast and inconsistent, the course itself is also very dry. Meadows may be becoming overrated for its value. I also had to share a cart with a random due to their lack of carts I was told, which isn’t the biggest problem ever.
