Very comfortable course

We did a four-man scramble and it was a fantastic time. The pace of play was fantastic, we had all the weather because this is the Midwest but still it was amazing, and you didn't get that feel of repetitive holes. All in all very fun course

Overpowering golf carts

The golf carts pretty much keep you on the cart paths. They gave signs everywhere, fix divots , new seed. That’s a joke there is no seed there. Only saw the cart girl once, and it was 92 degrees out, no water on the course

Rude staff crappy carts

Have been playing here on and off for years and never had an issue. Invited some friends here to play after bragging about the place. I was so embarrassed . The ranger guy was absolutely awful, the rudest man I have ever met. He was yelling at people when we pulled up. He later yelled at us for being too slow, which we may have been a tad slow but not awful. Started having issues with the cart early on. By hole 7 the carts just weren’t working. Tried to get the ranger to help and he was just mean. Tried blaming us and over-talking us when we tried to explain what had been happening with them. Then when I went in and asked to speak to the manager I just get some golf pro that just didn’t give a crap.So paid for 9 holes only got to play 7 spent most of the time messing around with their worthless carts. Won’t be back.

Golf carts are very controlling. You can barely get off the cart path. They have signs everywhere.

Spring golf in Livonia

Great day for golf but course was still wet. Not unexpected. Play in this area often and the spring play is usually soggy.

Tin Cup is excellent for after golf drinks and food.

Will definitely return 👍

Classic course but…

If it’s been raining for any length of time at all, avoid at all costs. The drainage on the course is not good and that’s putting it nicely. The course was completely swamped, even my putter had mud on it by the end of the round. That being said, the greens and fairways were in really good shape (minus the water) and the clubhouse amenities are top notch. It’s a challenging track with lots of tight shots, bunkers, and water hazards. Will definitely play here again, just not after two days of rain.

Enjoyable

Came with three friends and everyone was happy with the course.

Some challenging holes and some dog legs that had us making adjustments.

Had a good time.

Unfriendly staff. They do not honor GolfNow reservation

Booked and prepaid an 18 hole round thru golfnow. When I went to check in, I was told that I can play 9 holes because they have leagues. The staff were not helpful and unfriendly and they basically told me it is not their problem and I can contact golfnow and get a refund. That was after a 45 min drive to get to the course. I will never play this course ever again,
