The Meadows

Always enjoy the course at GVSU. very well kept and a nice variety in layout and challenges.

The course was in excellent condition, which is paramount for any course. It has some forgiveness with larger fairways, but if you miss, it can make you pay. It's 7,000+ yards from the tips, and has yardage marked every 25yds or so from 225 and in. A little on thr pricey side, but compared to other courses that charge around the same, it's 2nd to none. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Was first off this morning and walked 18 with a single cart rider and we finished in 2: hrs 39 min. Greens were excellent, bunkers well raked and sandy and the fairways and rough in great shape.

Layout is good for walking and reasonable rates to play a course in great condition. Always enjoy the course.

The course was good. Any ball in the rough was lost as it is very thick (but obviously I should stay out of there, haha). The matchings on the course done by the marshall was very odd and made the pace of play very undesireable. They were matching two 80 year old men walking with two younger guys on a cart. My pair was not matches up, thankfully but the pace was very slow and halfway through the front nine the younger guys ahead of us ditched the older gentlemen and we were stuck to pass the older walkers. Then the older gentlemen were very rude to us as we passed them. We ended up passing the twosome in front of them as well as they slowed down after a couple holes.

I would play here again for sure as long as the pace of play was more consistent.

I hadn't played this course since I was in high school (math says it has been 13 years) so I was pleased to find it as I remembered - links style, plenty of risk reward, inherently walkable, and just over 7000 yards if you're so inclined. One of the finest public courses in the Grand Rapids area, and a value even on the weekends.

That is sometimes the true test of a golf course. You play horrible, like run out of balls in your bag horrible and still come home and use adjectives like, awesome, perfect, fun, enjoyable. I saw a great blue heron eat a fish, made 3 pars, walked 9 holes before work.

This course is such a fun collection of holes on the front. Second shot on 2 is so intimidating with water on both sides. 5 is so fun with the mounds along the right. The tee shot on 6 is a fun shoot. Make sure to go back a tee for the extra test here. 8 and 9 are great holes to finish. Love that 2nd shot on 9.

Perfect condition, the day was perfect. Pace was awesome as a walking twosome and had another twosome and foursome in front of us and never waited. Doesn’t get better than The Meadows in my book in the GR area.

Our favorite course in the area. Great value for the money. Course in great shape, especially the greens. Very accommodating staff. Took 4:15 to play 18 with an early morning tee time. Not an easy course for beginners, so move up tee boxes if you’re a novice.

Course and weather were perfect. I scored my first hole-in-one and the course gave me a commemorative flag.

We enjoy this course very much. It is always in great shape and the the greens are very fast and roll out beautifully! There is also a practice facility across the street that has something for everyone. The staff is very helpful and friendly! There are golf carts available but this course is very walkable . It is great value. highly recommend this course.

Great value for how nice the course is. Interesting layout, some narrow tee shots favor accuracy over distance.

My first time p!saying this course and I found it exceptional. A tough but fair layout! The greens and fairways were in excellent condition! It is a great value for the green fee. I would definitely play this course again!

Clubhouse was close due to Covid but everything else was great.

Purchased round as hot deal. Very good value for this quality course

Perfect time to play. Course team did a great job adjusting to pandemic mandates. Course is in great shape even with all the rain!!

I played 18 holes after 48 hours of 4-7 inches of rain dumped on the course. The drainage is amazing and the staff really works hard to provide safe and challenging golf. Can't wait to play again today!
