Great shape for fall golf

The course is in great shape for golf in November. The greens are fast and are rolling true. The only thing you have to contend with this time of year is leaves. For most of the greens this was not an issue. It's more of an issue in the rough, which is where you shouldn't be.🤣 We finished our round in 4 hours.

First time

This was my first time playing this course and was pleasantly surprised. The course was in good shape and fun to play. Not super difficult but challenging enough to have fun. Can’t beat it for the money or proximity to where I live.

Michigan golf

Course was worth the money. However it was very slow and no one seemed to want to move people along. It was a long day

Absolutely amazing

Tbh this course is amazing. For the price it is a super good course. Our round took under 5 hours which is the perfect amount of time in my opinion. The carts are pretty nice with mini monitors on them telling you how far away you are from the hole so basically a built in range finder on your cart. If you’re in the area you have to try it out. The course is very fun and you won’t regret it. Also after your round you can stop over at the one under bar for food and drinks.

Awesome course!

The golf carts are sick because They show the distance to the hole. Also, if you don’t know where to go it has a map with a gps screen

First Time Playing

First time playing this course and it was a lot of fun. Some challenging holes, but made it more fun. Especially the 12 hole. It was a dog leg left and it had a huge rough before the green. My only issue was that they was not a clubhouse for a beer and hotdog after the turn and the bat next door didn't open till after 11, same with the bev cart. Other than that it was a great course

First time at Idyl Wood 5/10

Idyl Wood is a great course with straight fairways and hard/fast greens. If you can hit the ball straight you will do well as there isn’t a lot of bending. The greens grass was very short, resulting in fast greens and tough bounces however, some of the pin locations made it more challenging with it being on a slope. The course condition was pretty solid as the tee boxes were nice as well as the fairways. A lot of older golfers seem to play here as that slowed the pace down a bit. Took me about 4:15 to finish 18. The course has electric carts with gps so that is a solid benefit as well. Overall, I am satisfied with the course and would recommend it.
