Eldorado, located just south of Cadillac, has built a reputation as one of the best golf values in the Great Lakes area. Conveniently situated at the US-131 and M-115 interchange, the course has a scenic northern Michigan setting that is easily accessible. The championship layout sprawls across rolling hills laced with flowering wetland areas. The golf course features elevated tees and generous green complexes with subtle but tricky undulations. Most of the greens are sloped back to front. The opening nine is more forgiving the back. There aren't as many forced carries and you won't be as severely penalized for missing the fairway. Eldorado's final hole is one of the toughest. This par 2 requires a long and accurate tee shot and the approach across a sizeable water hazard leaves little room for error.

Large, challenging greens!

Very scenic course while sitting on balcony at clubhouse. Rolling hills with woods, trees, creeks, marshes and ponds. Bunkers looked well maintained as did the entire course. Large, fast greens with a lot of contour made putting a challenge but not unreasonable! Don't believe/trust the signage on the tee boxes, most of the time it didn't even match the yardage on the scorecard (which we presumed was probably more accurate). This was one time we wish we had GPS or Range Finder, although most of the "boulders" indicating distance to green (200-150-100) seemed fine.

Fun playable layout

The course was in overall great condition. My only reserve is there were a ton of grass clippings left around greens and fairways (rough) making some shots off the fairway impossible to find. Greens were in great shape, pretty slippery on a couple holes. Excellent array of tee choices. Would be nice to have a tip sheet for hazards and distances for new players.

Nice

Nice course...inventive layout some surprises around blind areas. Very tough to find yardage markers GPS recommended. Also plays shorter than yardage on almost every hole. Recommend you play with someone who has knowledge of the course for the blind shots (pond right on 5, fairway opens up left on 18, etc). Friendly staff the grounds crew seemed unwilling to move or shut down equipment during your shot ...would be the only negative...fast greens not many bunkers. Wide fairways and large greens make it forgiving in that sense, but not much rough between the fairway and hazards...play smart...overall good course

Scenic and a good challenge

A very nice course in the Cadillac area. Very well maintained and scenic. I played by myself and there were a few surprises. It is a course you need to play more than once or play with someone that has played before. It is well worth the trip
