Bedford Valley Course at Gull Lake View Golf Club and Resort
Rating Snapshot
About
Gull Lake View Golf Club and Resort boasts five championship courses, all of which have scenery provided by southwest Michigan's beautiful lake region. The golf course has a convenient location that is easily accessible from Detroit, Toledo, Chicago, Grand Rapids, and Lansing. It is a favorite spot for golfers throughout the Midwest and Great Lakes. Bedford Valley might be the most well known of the five since it has hosted numerous events over the years including the Michigan Open, Michigan Maxfli PGA Junior Championship, and the NCAA III National Championship. The golf course is known locally as "The Big Course." The aptly chosen nickname originates from the layout's massive greens bordered by large, deep bunkers and the fairways that are lined with towering, mature oaks. Golfers appreciate the course's shot values and the challenging but fair test it offers.

Bedford Valley is always well kept.
We play this course several times a year. We book it on Golf Now. Rate is between $37.50 & $47.50 including GN fees. Normal course price is $75.00. That is more than we would pay. We always play when the deal is available.
We have never been disappointed with the course or the friendly staff.
This is our new 'Home" course!
Bedford valley golf course
Great place to enjoy 18 holes of golf it had rained two inches of rain before we went and was still a great time
If it wasn’t for the nice guy in the pro shop. I would never consider this course again!! Greenskeeper’s need to learn to stay in their lane!!
Excellent
It use to be a private course and you can tell nice lay out, nice conditions and staff was good I will definitely be returning
Great Course!
First time playing; excellent course; excellent facilities. Fairways and greens were top notch. The rough's were pretty dried up and heavily used. Lot's of sand traps! Bob the starter was very friendly and outgoing. Didn't spend much time in the pro shop, but everything looked real nice. Just a small snack shop with drinks. Will golf again!
PACE: Excellent. Was a single, and had a 4some go out 30 minutes before me. I was able to play 2 balls and never catch them, or have anyone catch me.
CONDITIONS: Some dry spots in the fairways/rough, but otherwise excellent. The greens were faster than I anticipated... I was pleasantly surprised by that. Bunkers were good.
STAFF: Very friendly and sociable.
VALUE: I'm already looking forward to paying them another greens fee.
LAYOUT: This feels like an older course (built in 1965) and I love that. The greens are not too tricked up (though they are fast). Very few (if any) blind tee shots. And big bunkers built to splash your ball out of. I like how the course rolls through the terrain too. Lots of fun!
Very well kept
Great corse, some hard holes most not to bad alot of sand traps but not to hard to avoid, would definitely recommend. We shall return
Bedford is always a solid track
Always enjoy playing Bedford. Props to the lawn crew. Greens were a nice speed, fairways had cool patterns. Staff was great. Got checked in quickly, bar staff was very nice and accommodating.
