Golf Advisor: Top 25 Most Improved U.S. Golf Courses (2015 #22)
Reviews
Took an hour for the first hole
Overbooked with a less than caring club house staff
pretty good for a municipal course
I play this course a lot mostly because of convenience. It's near the freeway, it's easy to get a tee time, the staff is friendly, it's usually a quick round, especially during the week. But it's also a very nice course. The greens are almost always faster than they look, there are a handful of really challenging holes and there are some scoring opportunities. I wish it were longer or had another set of tees in back.
Ranger?
I guess courses in general don't have marshalls anymore. I have seen them on this course but not on the day I played. Had a Lady and son in front for first 3 holes. Not until I finally got frustrated and hit up on them did she offer to let me by. 30 minutes for 3 holes. After that 15 holes in 2 hours. As far as the course, it is in great shape. Just need to be aware that the pace out here can be brutal at times.
Very nice course to play.
This course will look tame to you at first sight, but don't be fooled. Gotta think about what club your hitting and your shot placement strategies. Go play it!!
Thank you for the kind review! We hope to see you back again soon!

Good layout. Nice pace of play. Greens were good. A little short on yardage but plenty of tight fairways with lots of mature trees. I will be back. It was a nice round
Thank you for your review and glad to hear you enjoyed your round!
Pace of play / tee time
Not a bad track, too bad they put tee times so close together, sometimes it's painful if you don't get teed off early. I usually tee it up here (early) once or twice a year.

Although still somewhat early into the golfing season,
the conditioning and maintenance of the course was very disappointing. Tees were not rolled and crowned front front to back, fairways were very narrow and mediocre condition, the roughs were greatly overgrown and balls were falling to the bottom of the grass which made it difficult to locate and slowed the pace of play, and the green had not been rolled and showed a large amount of winter damage.
It is early in the season, but this course was in the poorest condition of the eight or nine courses I have played this season.
Good course
This course satisfied me so much except to pace.
Short and challenging
Course is fairly flat but lots of dog legs and a long par 3. Hole #2 needs 2 perfect shots to get to the green.
keeper
very friendly professional operation
Beautiful course with the right amount of challenge
This course was very beautiful and had the right amount of challenge. The greens were challenging and well groomed. The fairways were lined with trees and there was water in some locations. We loved the course and this is now our favorite course.
Great course. Great value
Son & I played early morning. Course was in very good condition Tee boxes were crowned making it difficult to find a flat position. Overall the course was extremely enjoyable
Poorly Managed
The course puts people out every 3 mins. There are backups on many holes. Rangers are friendly, but don't do their job. We saw a five some a couple of times and the rangers just drove by. The course itself can be challenging and was in good shape, but don't plan on playing in anything under 5 hours on a weekend.
Fairly flat.
Enjoyed the course. Plays fairly fast. Many slanted greens. Water not much of a factor. Good carts. Several dog legs. A few narrow fairways. If you drive straight this course is fairly easy. Some interesting par 3s. Front 9 is tougher than back nine. I'll play the course again.
Thank you for your review John! Visit us again soon!
Nice course layout
First time golfing here,the course has a nice layout with mature trees to make sure your in the fairway.
I like the par 3's with the elevation changes and lots of shade on the sunny days.
Thank you for your review! See you again soon!
Cart mandatory
Great course for the $$$. You can easily forget your in Livonia. Up North feel on the back nine. Greens are always in great shape and can be very challenging. The only issue we ever have is the walkers and first timers. The course is located in a highly populated area so you get all levels of golfers. I'm not knocking new golfers but golf edicate is part of game, with overlapping tee times during busy hrs. It can create an extremely slow pace of play. If you feel you have to walk, may I suggest getting a treadmill or walking to the course as opposed to slowing the pace of play to a crawl for everyone else.
Thank you for your review Anthony!
Purposely hitting in to the group in front of you is never the right answer and has no place on our, or any golf course. Potentially injuring a woman and child is not worth a faster round and we in no way condone this behavior. 3 holes in 30 minutes makes you on pace for a 3 hour round and is about as far from a brutal pace as you can get.
