Not good

They were aerating and we should have been informed. The course was a mess.

Disappointing Local Course

Idyl Wyld has always been the lesser of the three Livonia courses but it was a decent last minute option since they always have tee times available. Recently, they continue to go downhill. The fairways are in good condition but the greens and tee boxes are not good. Ball marks are not fixed and divots are not replaced. The golfers at Idyl Wyld tend to be less experienced at golf etiquette in terms of course repair and pace of play. We were 30 minutes late teeing off and there was no ranger to keep things moving or ensure golfers were keeping up. We were supposed to tee off before 7PM but since we didn't get off until 7:30PM we only finished 6 holes. If the pace of play was maintained there is no reason we shouldn't have finished all 9. When we asked about all of this after our round the girl at the desk didn't seem to care. She needs to be trained on customer service. No apologies or anything. She said their rangers don't work on Wednesdays. Unbelievable. They were completely overbooked and still didn't care what was happening on course. When we said we wouldn't be back, she said "well we have plenty of business anyway". No wonder this is the worst course in Livonia.

Poor pace of play

Took two and a half hours to get through nine holes. Apparently that is expected too. I personally don’t enjoy my round taking that long so I will not be returning.

Good local course still a challenge.

This is a good course to challenge yourself on.

While it looks easy, the wind and layout will challenge you.

Horrible

Horribly taken care of. Divots everywhere, tee box was covered in holes. The course has 2 rivers going through it and are perfectly placed so that you cannot hit driver unless you carry 300 yards. All the holes are super close together so that if your drive isn’t perfectly straight you are on another fairway. Again, the course was horribly taken care of. I am bad at golf and still how bad this course was made me mad.
