Idyl Wyld Municipal Golf Course

Nice good average golf course nothing stood out and nothing missing..

Great round to play in late October. Course in good shape for this late in the year and a lot of the leaves had been cleared from the course.

I'm sure I came at an awkward time but, playing by myself I spent 5 holes waiting up to 10 minutes between shots on the front. After they let me play I thought everything would be great as the slower 2 in front of them were only playing 9. Nope, at the turn I go to 10 to try to keep my momentum and a league was about to tee off. 9 carts and 3 walkers. I wasn't about to wait an hour to tee off again so I just played the front 9 again.

Tee time 1:28

Actual tee off 1:45

Finished 5:20

I get leagues should take precedence, but why would you have them start on 10 if you know you've been sending public to the front? If you know the league needs to play the back 9 for some reason then shouldn't you send people a couple hours before on the back so we don't run into each other when the public goes to turn?

I wasn't the only one, the slower 2some that was ahead of me ended up quitting after 15.

Great round on a Friday afternoon, twosome and we easily finished in under three hours. Gave us ample time to hit a great Bar located on-site. Fun course to play on a stress free Friday afternoon.

Nice course with some water hazards and sand traps thrown in, you can't beat the price.

A buddy and I tried to squeeze a round of golf before an event later in the day and only had time for 9. The course was not the best I have been on but was in great shape for a public course. Seemed like staff and patrons were mindful to fill divots and the like.

Interesting layout, some up hill, some down hill, added a nice challenge for a bad golfer like myself. Would definitely go again especially for a little over a dollar a hole with cart.

This course was in great shape. Relatively short in comparison to most courses I play. Helps with your confidence since you can score low based on course layout.

Course played great. Staff was very courteous

and the course itself can be challenging

The course was in good shape and well manicured. Play was exceptionally fast today. Some tough greens.

My friends and I decided to go for a pleasant, relaxing round of golf on a beautiful Saturday morning. We got there early to get some practice in before our tee time.

Walking into the club house we were excited to find they had free coffee and donuts....plus! However, we didn't know that would be our only excitement about food. When we made the turn, we find out that there was not hot dogs or much to purchase.

Since we had about 15-20 mins before our tee time, we wanted to go putt for a bit while we waited on one of our friends. The whole time we were putting, we noticed two foursomes on #1 tee just waiting. We noticed no-one was in front of them so we were baffled why they weren't teeing off and getting going. Tee was getting backed up. Next thing we hear is over the loud speaker, our group was being called to #1 to tee off.....WHHHHAT!?!?! We still had 6 mins till our tee time, the groups on the tee box could have teed off! Instead we were pressured to go tee off on #1 before our tee time causing now the tee box to be backed up to 3 foursomes, very unpleasant!!!!!

We were also pressured to go to #10 tee...can I use the bathroom at least?!?! We get to the 10th tee and the foursome that was behind us on the front were waiting on the 10th tee.

Course was in decent shape, grounds were wet from some rain in prior days. Especially in some of the valleys on a few holes where our balls got plugged and we couldn't find them. It would be nice to have some yardage to water hazards on some holes where the creek cuts across. Tee boxes were a bit rough and was difficult to find a flat spot for stance.

In conclusion, the course wasn't bad, my friends had a fun time, enjoyed some cigars and the round. Cigars made everything better and I forgot about them not having hot dogs at the turn.

Course was in terrible condition, grass way too long, not trimmed. Play was so slow we quit after playing 9 holes even though we paid for 18!

The course was way over booked and because of the soggy turf on most holes, it was cart path only which slowed down pay even more. There were about 15 people lined up waiting to tee off and no starter there to keep things organized. As a result people were not teeing off in order of tee time until a ranger finally showed up. Later I could here names being called off over the PA system as we were making the turn. The back nine was even slower so we finally got frustrated and left after the 13th hole. No tee off markers and no ball cleaners available on the entire course. If they weren't ready for golfers, they shouldn't have opened the choose for play. Very disappointing experience all around.

Too late in the season to expect quality leaf pick ups at every inch of course but fairways were clean and the only time spent looking for balls was in the few congested areas of leaves that were a slice or a hook away

My wife and I played here recently and had a good time. There are quite a few holes with significant elevation changes, which was fun to navigate. A few of the tee boxes were in rough shape, but the rest of the course played well.

Played on a Sunday morning. The course was packed. No beer cart even after 11 due to football season. My husband was disappointed. Lots of mature trees and usually heard a ball hit by a club and then hit a tree! Felt like we had to hurry up wait and wait at times due to the busyness.

Idyl Wyld is just an average public course. Nothing special to it. Some of the tee boxes have looked god awful for years! Compare to the other Livonia courses, this one is easily the most boring, ugly, and unkempt. The greens always roll like garbage as well. It's sucks too because I want Idyl Wyld to be decent. I learned how to golf on this course through Junior leagues almost 20 years ago!

If you want to play a much better course drive to Glenhurst in Redford. All around better course.

I have been playing Idyl Wyld for a number of years. It has always been a wonderful place to play. Only thing missing is a food cart every once in a while. But that does not take anything away from a beautiful course. I live in Detroit and this is one of the course I play in the Metro Detroit area , that I would take my out of town friends, guest and family to play.
