Enjoyable Round
Great layout! Lot of opportunities to score if you are able to keep the ball in play. Target golf. I will be back!
Average
Played front 9. Two par5s were favorite holes. I liked it but the tee boxes and greens are not in good shape. If they got those in order it'd be a really nice course, especially for the metro Detroit area
Perfect place for a utility round.
Great place to practice moving the ball left and right.
Very disappointed
Poor course poor management. Arrived at course found out there was an outing going on waited evey hole left after 10 hole would not refund no money would not recommend this course to any body poor management poor greens and fairways thought I was golfing in a cow pasture very un happy after driving 40 miles each way ?????????
Very Nice Course
Overall the course was in very good shape. We played early so the pace of play was excellent (about 3 1/2 hours). The few downsides were the holes were not well marked (both in location and yardage).
Good Golf Day
Everything went well, were able to get out a little early and the play was very good. Good value for the money.
Ok for Price
Played here years ago and like myself were not what we used to be. Some area around fairways are not in very good condition. Greens are ok and the back is in better condition. Behind a Ladies League first nine so pace was a bit slow. I will give them credit for doing their best with what they got.
Fair price/course needs some maintenance
Friendly staff. Golf course seemed a little neglected but greens were in good shape. Fair price for conditions. It was a nice day.
First round this year
We have played this course many times. It is a great course and a great value. Can't wait to play it again
Kicked off the course on15th hole
Terrible experience, would never go back. Could not care what the price was, there is no reason to be asked to leave a golf course on the 15th hole. There were no complaints, no alcohol was involved, but we were the last 3 on the course. Had plenty of time to finish up, but we're told that would be our last hole, because they were closing for the evening. Later fall golf, on a golf now purchase. Ranger obviously had better plans, and was anxious to close up. We were asked to exit the course after the 15th hole a because he was leaving for the day, and needed the carts back.
My father sent an email , but never heard back from anyone at this establishment, so we vowed to never play there again.
Stay Away
big mistake thinking this was a good value.. Walked off after playing 12 holes course wasn't playable and pace was horrific.
Review 27-Sept-15
Paired up with a guy who smoked like a chimney. Other than that it was a good round.
Unprofessional staff, aweful course conditions, and dirty carts??
I had the worst experience golfing here, after my nine I asked to speak to the manager to tell him he/she should wash the carts as they were muddy, I also complained about the starter putting me behind a slow group and how it took several minutes to see if it was okay if I, a single player, could tee off 10 where no one had been seen for the greater half hour. Management ignored the comments and overall I will never recommend this course nor play it again
For the right price, worth the nod
Overall, this course isn't spectacular and wont "wow" you in any way. Having said that, for 15 bucks (or cheaper) it's definitely worth playing.
The course is in decent enough condition to play a solid round and have a good time. The staff is fantastic and very welcoming, which is always a plus.
All in all, give 'er a shot if the price is right.
Slowwwwww
Nice old course. Made the turn in 1.5 hrs and find out they put a women's league off in front of us. Course is old and in less than average shape. Left because of the slow play. Nothing more frustrating when they put people off the back as you are turning.
AGAIN, YOU GUYS CAME THROUGH
GREAT TIME WITH MY BETTER HALF,
WE, HAD A GREAT ROUND, NO ONE IN FRONT, NO ONE BEHIND.
ALL IN ALL, WE'LL USE GOLF NOW FROM NOW ON...THANKS, RAUL
Decent value if you're looking for a practice course
Second time I've played here this season. The $25 rate with cart is an alternative to a couple of large buckets of range balls at a driving range. However, either due to poor tee time planning or just trying to cram as many $25 duffers the pace of play is absolutely horrible. Both times we have been out it took just under 6 hours to play. Many of the people playing here could use a lesson in golf etiquette and the ranger was apologetic about slow play, but c'mon do something about it instead of just lip service.
The overall condition of the course for this time of year is not that bad, however there is one hole on the front nine where the blue tee box is actually a rotted wood deck with an old AstroTurf mat on it, they should invest some capital into a real tee box.
Good value
Decent quality/quality course for a great price. Pace was slow, so factor that in with any time restrictions
