Eldorado
About
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.

Great Course
Greens were a bit fast like pro greens but the greens were soft and accepted incoming shots perfectly.
I shot 78. Pretty good for me.
Favorite course!!!
We play this course every chance we get. It is immaculate, everywhere you look is a beautiful view. Fairways are green and wide for the most part, greens are FAST and pin placement can really challenge your game. Literally EVERYONE there is so nice, so friendly; one of the starters joined our twosome for a few holes which was so great. Wonderful experience; would happily buy some gear but it's pricey - only negative I've got!
Nice course. Greens were very fast to me, wife loved them.
Excellent
It was a great golfing experience the course and excellent conditions superintendente thank you
Great Course to play
Played Eldorado for the first time this year. Huge tee box's and greens, nice layout. The course was in good shape for early spring. Look forward to playing again this year. The restaurant is excellent, best fries I have had in ages. All of the staff at Eldorado are outgoing and nice. If you are in the Cadillac area please reward yourself with a round of golf at Eldorado.
Fun time with the wife on a Wednesday, October 18, 2023 foliage was perfect and I scored real well 38 on the front
Well, I already left a review but I’ll leave another one. Had a great time with the wife here on Wednesday, October 18 for $77 for the two of us with golf now Geoff and the foliage was perfect. The greens were fast and big I mean really big and I scored my best front nine this year 38 two over so I was very very happy. Yeah, great time wife liked it she didn’t score well but she took a lot of pictures of the foliage so it was a good good time and might be back. It’s a little priced high for a Cadillac area in my opinion, but it probably is the best track up there.
Carryover the swamps and the ponds, BIGGEST greens
We played here my brother-in-law and my buddy and I three years ago are on our way up to Treetops just the front nine and it was a good warm-up so I finally came back here with my wife on October 18, 2023 on a weekday Wednesday, full breezy, nice and mild and the foliage was pretty much peeking so it’s gorgeous. Yeah there’s a lot of swamp carries here and ponds. The fairways are amply wide. The greens are the biggest probably I’ve ever played on, so we have a Lotta long putt and be ready to get that ball up in the air and over the swamps. It’s a bugger but we enjoyed it. We paid on the offer Golf now we paid $77 for the two of us for a fair price. Their normal rate is $50-$60. I think it’s cost deep open the Cadillac area Personally . There is a lot of highway noise throughout the whole course, but that should not bother you too much and it’s very easy to get on and off the highway here. Yeah they keep the course in good shape so I’ll give it a try.
great weather challenging course
We played at a perfect time. The colors on the leaves were just starting to change and the weather was in the low 70's. Course was a challenge with a few blind drives and guarded greens. We only played 9. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
Awesome day
Great price great course. Staff had all the leaves off the greens and fairways. Great job!!!
Must Play
This is a beautiful course with fast greens and well laid out. Challenging carries if you don't put your tee shot in the right place. Don't pass up the opportunity to play this course. It is a Must Play!
