Good time

Course was in great condition. Only problem we had was with the new GPS carts. We would be on the cart path multiple times and it would say we wede in a restricted area. It happened too often and slowed our play down. Overall though it was a good time.

We are sorry if your carts were acting up while on the path. The units were brand new and needed some tweaking to get them accurate. We have since corrected this issue. Thank you for your feedback and playing our facility. Hopefully we will see you again.

Great course

Great course, was in very good shape after all the rain we've had recently. Plan to play again even though it was a bit of a drive. Played on a nice Sunday afternoon and hardly saw another player.

The GPS units were getting an update the week that you played. We are sorry but during this time they asked us to not put the pin positions in the system to alleviate any possible conflicts.
To the pin yardages are indeed active as well as the touch screen to see all the yardages you may need. Again we are sorry that during the time of your round they were not active. Thank you for playing our facility.

Great course to play

I really enjoy playing The Medalist and the challenges it has. They also have great senior rate. The time of year I played mid-April the course was in good condition and the greens were very fast considering being early spring.

This course is ALWAYS in great shape and is a great place to play.

Has a nice variety of tees for a challenging round no matter what skill level that you are at. I have played it several times and never been disappointed.

Up North golf without the drive

The first thing I noticed was how understated the course is on the short private drive in. As you park and walk down to the club house you are immediately impressed with its design both practically and aesthetically. The club pro was friendly and knowledgeable. The practice facility is terrific and the practice putting green reflected what we would see on the course, about a ten on the stint meter. The first hole lulls you into a false sense of security as does the second, then all heck breaks loose. Soon you are in a forest setting with interesting and challenging hole after hole. The greens are undulating and impeccably true. Bunkers are in great condition and come into play. Water and woods are all around. I believe it is one of, if not the best course I have ever played for the money. A truly sensational value. I am a thirteen handicap and have been playing for thirty years. Do not take my word for it, check this this gem out for yourself.

Nice Tees-fairways-greens-price!!!!!

I wish this course was closer to home. It was well worth the 1 hour drive for the low HOT DEAL price I paid. I will play it again soon. Course is as good as Gull Lake in my opinion.

well maintained. lots of trees and sand.

We have played the Medalist several times and always enjoy the experience. It's challenging with lots of hills, trees and sand. Some of the greens are tough and they all run fast. Any time you can play this nice of a course for under $25, grab it.

Course has a wonderful view and nice fairways and greens.

I especially enjoyed the challenging par 3's and rewarding par 5's with a good tee shot and approach iron.

Course is in great shape for being early in the season.

Great round. Felt like we were the only ones on the course but we did tee off a little later in the day than most golfers. Can't wait to go back.

Tough but great value

Not many places to miss on this course. If you don't put it in the fairway you're often in a hazard. Lots of fun wildlife and quiet on the course. I've played three times.
