Golf Advisor: Top 25 Most Improved U.S. Golf Courses (2015 #22)
Reviews
Great golf course, staff very friendly golf, great atmosphere
greens
i golf many types of golf courses. this course layout was just OK. there was a few holes where i hit the fairway with about a 200 yard drive, but did not have a clear shot at the green. the greens were my main issue. WAY quick when downhill. and slow when uphill. and was very very deceiving as well. maybe i need to play it again to give a better judgement. i consider myself a very good putter. and I THREE putted 7 times today. once was from 6 feet. i will still golf this course again, because i DO enjoy a challenge. the rating should be higher though. it should NOT just be about distance. there were a few bunkers that should NOT be there.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Whispering Willows. We hope to see you again in the future.
Never again
This is a followup to a response from last years round.I was criticized for hitting up into a group in front of me and i realize the danger in such that is why i made sure they were just out of my range. Maybe if you would send a ranger out to do his job there would be no issues. Your pace of play here has always been terrible and that is why i will never play your course again..
As for a 3 hour and 10 minute round, where i come from that is not acceptable for a twosome. Maybe your management needs to focus more on managing all aspects of proper etiquette on a course instead of calling out people who complain about the lack of it.
Great Course. Long Time Livonia Resident
I’ve lived in Livonia for over 40 years. I’ve played all three courses, Whispering Willows, Fox Creek, Idyl Wyld, many times overs these years. My favorite was Fox Creek until the ash bore killed many of the trees on the course. I still like the course though. Whispering Willows is now my favorite. I like the layout. It is a very nice well maintained course. All three Livonia courses are. There are enough water hazards and trees to make it challenging, but fun. I never get tired of playing these courses. I would recommend these courses to all who enjoy golf.
Great public course
Our league has been here for about 8 years and we've all enjoyed the course. It's been through a lot of changes over the years and it is in really good shape. The greens are usually pretty fast but hold.
All in all, it's a great course for the money. Bar and restaurant are a great additional to it.
Horribly Overbooked
Took 5 hours to finish a round. It wasn't like I was playing behind a group of 4 hackers. Everyone at every hole on the course was waiting 5 mins to shoot. I have to believe it was because the course is way overbooked.
Hello. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and to best control pace allowing everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve, and we are glad to see you rated the course conditions to be great during your game. Thank you for playing Whispering Willows. We hope to see you again soon.
I was a local and learned how to play at Whispering. Greens are always in great shape and the rest of the course is well maintained. criticism of the the course in my view is unfounded. It has every thing you could ask for from a municipal course including some challenge. (when was the last time you shot par or better there or). It has its share of faults but nothing major. Like the course and cost is very reasonable.
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars. Please know that the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will make sure to use your comments as guidance for improvements. We hope you'll bear with us through this transition and give us another try in the near future. Thanks for choosing Whispering Willows.
