The definition of “hidden gem”

I love this course. It is definitely linksy with minimal trees. I love the design and the conditions of tees, fairways and greens are always top notch. The only knock is that the bunkers aren’t up to the same level as the rest but given their price point, that isn’t surprising (considering bunkers are the highest cost to maintain). It is a course I could play every day!

Hidden Gem

This is a beautiful course set off the beaten path. My only complaint would be the length of the rough. Just a bit too long for my liking, so prepare for that. Still, I recommend playing this course to all levels of golfers.

Still a great course

Having not played Hunter's Ridge for over 10 yrs I was hopeful it was still in as good a condition as i remembered and i was not disappointed. The fairways and greens are very well maintained and the speed of the greens was quite good. There had been a massive storm during the night before we played, not only was the course open for play but it had drained exceptionally well, only a very few areas with any noticeable standing water and those were not really in play. Great value and a must play in the Howell/Brighton area.

Great course!

Course is always in extremely good condition. Heather will catch shots that are sprayed, but course is very playable. Very scenic with nice elevation changes on a few holes. Would play it more often if it was closer. Can't beat the price!

Great Value

I can't imagine, anybody giving this course a bad review, unless they had a bad round and needed something to blame: great tee boxes, fairways and greens. Plain and simple, Hunters Ridge is a nice!
