The Medalist is a golfing gem hiding outside of Marshall, MI

Great Course! The greens are always a little tricky to read. Nice Clubhouse, decent beer selection with a patio overlooking the 18th green.

Extremely Slow Paced

Beautiful course but very disappointed with the pace. A tournament was played one hole ahead of me and I had to wait with a group of 3 others about 10 minutes per hole . I had to quit after 10 holes because it was not fun anymore. I did get a partial refund which I appreciate but still bothered me for not having a good time. I'll may play it again but this time I'll call ahead to be sure this won't happen again.

A Gem

My wife and I played the course enroute from Venice Fl to Canadian Lakes, MI. I had played the courses 30 years with a guys outing. I found the course very playable, well maintained and as interesting as I recalled. We played with two younger men from Lansing, who were Terrific playing partners .

The staff were friendly, welcoming and accommodating throughout the day.

We will keep this gem on our bucket list.

Beautiful!

This course is very beautiful and very humbling! Requires a thought out tee shot on most holes, greens were near perfect! Firm but very receptive. Not every hole is a driver hole and use the gps on the carts to plan out your shots. You can touch the screen at different points to see how far that is from you. Something I didn’t learn until 16… overall will play again and recommend!

PACE OF PLAY

We started at 1018am. At 11 am we were on hole 2. 2 five some of members. Asked to play through and they straight up said no they had other groups in front of them. IT started raining on hole 8 and it was 112pm. 3 hours for 8 holes. Never again. 70$ to play an ok course at a terrible pace. No rain check nothing. Was told I knew it was going to rain.

Try Gull Lake courses cheaper and friendlier. This is a members course only.

The Medalist

Course was in great shape, and liked the layout. Pace was a little slow on the front as a child was playing but jumped ahead of them at the turn. Staff was exceptional, friendly & knowledgeable made our first time there a great experience.
