Faulkwood Shores Golf Course
About
Faulkwood Shores Golf Club first opened in 1971, exactly a century after the historic farmhouse that serves as the clubhouse was built. Located in Howell, it's considered one of southeastern Michigan's best values. The golf course has a traditional layout that is player friendly enough for players of all skill levels but there are some challenging hole designs that will appeal to those that are more advanced. Water hazards come into play on eight holes throughout the golf course, including a stream that runs alongside the first hole. The fairways are tight and the greens are fast and well guarded by bunkers. There are also a few subtle undulations that can be tricky to maneuver. Faulkwood Shores Golf Club requires accuracy but it's not overly punishing if you're slightly errant.

nice greens for spring
greens were the 2nd best if played this early spring 4 times in ky 4 times in Carolina 4 times in mi ft nine drier than back great value will be back
Passionate staff
Course was in fair condition for the time of year. Can tell the staff cares for the greens may not have the funds or man power to keep the whole course up to high standards. Very tight course great course to learn to control trajectory and curve. Staff was very passionate about golf. Had great spring cleaning specials on gear. Would go back for the right price. Greens are worth putting. Embarrassing the harsh slope on two of the greens allows one to really create feel on the course.
Nice place .... 3 1/2 stars
Played in light and cold rain and my game was WAY OFF that day. Not the courses fault. It's not on the same tier as a "Championship" golf course and also not a "Mom & Pop". if you know that going in than it's a solid 3 1/2 stars. Definately walkable and if you the correct tees, the yardage wont kill you.
Needs some work
The course has potential but I don't think it is maintained well. Tees furry and greens slow. Other players do not repair their ball marks...
Tough track from the Whites!
Played this course for the 1st time this week. 6600+ yards from the White's was tough for this senior golfer! Next tee up was 5500. Narrow fairways and plenty of water/sand/trees. Would have enjoyed it more from tees around 6000 yards!
Nice Course
The course was in good shape great price! The staff was not friendly at all, it was like we were a bother. Would probably go there again.
Great value
For the money, this course is an excellent value. I'd play it from the tips next time as it plays a bit shorter than anticipated. Par 3's are all longish and the 5's are reachable. Don't expect pristine when paying under $20 and you'll have a good time.
Challenging greens
Holes like number seven and three will have you shacking your head if you should land above or to the side of the hole. A lot of fun to play.
This course has a definite feel unlike many courses I've played. Uniquely challenging.
I loved the sloping greens on the front nine and lengthy challenges the back nine presented. Overall, one of the most uniquely challenging courses I've ever played. Fun and fair.
Can't Go Wrong
The course was in good shape, and the greens weren't too fast. Fast greens, in particular on the front side, could make your blood pressure rise to unsafe levels! :)
The course features long par 3's and "reachable" par 5's.
There may not be a better golf value around!
Great course for a hot deal
Great course to play for what we saw. Started on #10 with a huge wait. Tee time was highly inaccurate. Delay due to crowd was at least 40 min. Took 3 hours to play 9 holes so we left after the first nine.
great course for the money
Great course for the money plays fast but challenging.
I play here all the time golf now has great rates for this course
Great course for the money, could use a ranger or two
This was the second time playing this course. The course is well maintained and challenging enough for a novice golfer like myself, but was still fun for the guy I was playing with, who was an experienced (prior high school golf coach) player. We got stormed out of the second nine and they issued a rain check with no problem. My only issue was the rate of play. I would have liked to see a ranger or two. The foursome in front of us were going very slowly and were holding up my group (a twosome), a single and a foursome. There were 2 open holes in front of them, but they would not allow anybody to play through. If there had been a ranger to have them either speed up or let us play through, we probably would have been able to finish our round before the storm! I will definitely come back though
Fun and Challenging
This can be a very difficult course at times. I play it 3 times a week and really like the course. The hotdogs are amazing as well! If you go to Faulkwood Shores, you must try the hotdogs.

Beginner Course
This course is a good one for beginners; however is very challenging with strict par four dog legs and very long par three holes. Hole 4 has a cumbersome tree that shades the front half of the green. A great tee shot only means a terrible tree bounce. Tight fairways play trouble for some shots; however, second shots can often correct the worst of drives. Staff very friendly; however, tee times only lined up seven minutes apart for foursome, which often gives delays at the tee box.
