Metamora Golf & Country Club is a championship course located in the northern suburbs of Detroit. The parkland layout has a beautifully rolling terrain that provides dramatic elevation changes throughout. The course has a balance of excellent shot values and interesting challenges that will appeal to players of all skill levels. The greens can be especially tricky since they are fast, undulating, and often putt downhill. There are numerous bunkers lurking around the greens and water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, 16 to be exact. Proper club selection and accurate shot placement will be generously rewarded but the golf course is not overly punishing if you're a little off your game. The signature hole is the par-5 third, which requires an approach shot to an island green.

Tough start

On the whole a good layout but the first two holes are very tough, very tight with some severe slopes and so it's a challenging way to start to say the least.

Nice conditions, slow play but that will happen when you're a twosome behind foursomes.

Great Course....will play again when in the area

Metamora is a hike from my home, but well worth the effort. Really interesting and challenging course layout. Excellent greens...some of the best I have played this year. Lots of elevation change - course layout makes you think your way around the course...lots of risk/reward shots. One of the best hot deals on GolfNow.

Very Nice Course

Metamora is a very nice course, I have been playing Metamora 4-5 times a year since they opened. Course is in very good condition , has fast greens , many blind shots from tee box , but no big deal.

Excellent!

Carts with club washers and divot sand. Driving range with grass tees and short practice area, too. Large practice putting green with chipping allowed. Water located on tees about every 4 hole (it was mid-90's temps). Cart girl appeared frequently with goodies for sale.

We played on a Sunday with a 10:10 tee time. Finished less that 4.5 hours later. Never had to wait on any shot. Nice fairways. Large greens a little slower than expected for a semi-private club, with some grain in them, but there are so many severe slopes they could not be cut fine. Hit it close to the pin, or suffer many 3-putts due to slopes on greens. Rough suitably penal. Traps generally in good shape. Lots and lots of hills and resultant sloped lies. Water is the main hazard, but some forest, too. Layout is scenic and requires accuracy. I'd prefer fewer blind shots, but second time around will make those less disturbing. Overall, a great time was had by all. We'll be back soon.

Jem

A super place to play, a challenge for bogey golfers to score if not on your game. Staff very pleasant and let us out before our tee time, for some reason the course wasn't busy that day. I would play there more often but it is a 2 hour drive from home and a border crossing

Challenging Course

This course was in excellent condition and was very challenging. I especially liked the hole layouts on the front nine. The number 18 finishing hole was a blast. I’ll definitely play this course again in the future.

Tricky Layout

Very challenging layout with water all over the place. If you have not played the course before there are many blind shots and doglegs. Well kept, although greens were not as fast as I would have expected. Average value, playing prime time on a Saturday morning you will pay a premium. Would come back.
