The Myth Golf & Banquet, formerly known as Beaver Creek, tumbles across rolling hills. Situated next to Lake Orion, the golf course sits on protected land that is home to an abundance of wildlife, including sandhill cranes. There is both an 18-hole championship course and a nine-hole par-3 course. In 2007, when the Myth was established, several improvements were made to the championship layout, improving its conditions and making it more challenging. The scenic golf course features boardwalk cart paths that cut through beautiful pine forests. Don't get too distracted by the scenery though because there is plenty to keep you busy including multi-tiered greens and water hazards on almost every hole. The 13th is the golf course's signature hole. This par 3 plays from an elevated tee over water to a generous green, offering a great opportunity for a birdie.

The Myth

Good name for this track. A terrible layout, THERE are far too many "Blind Shots" that cause a log jam. We quit after 12 holes and 3.5 hours of waiting on every hole. The Mythe is just that, something that is not as it should or could be.

3.6/10 Golf Course

Played 18 holes at the Myth on Saturday, 9/20 and it was arguably the worst conditions I’ve played all year in Northeast Metro Detroit. The greens, fairways, and tee boxes looked dejected, and for a course that is very tight/difficult to begin with, the condition of the course made it really unenjoyable.

Electrical wires exposed in the middle of the fairway, nails sticking out everywhere from the wooden cart paths, dirt tee boxes… it was bad, and paying $60/man felt wrong.

Side note: The attitude from the guy in the clubhouse about providing my DRIVERS LICENSE NUMBER to rent a golf cart was also not appreciated.

I’d find somewhere else to play!

Terrible pace of play

Over booked. 3.5 hours for 9 holes. Tee boxes were sand. They apparently don't have grass seed. Go down the road and spend a little more you will be happier.

Illegal Pin Placement

To start I’ll say I’m a 15.9 handicap golfer so I’m good not great at golf. The course is very narrow but that has nothing to do with my low rating. I came on a Friday afternoon and there were multiple pins placed on hills that made it impossible to keep the ball anywhere near the pin. Hole 5 had it placed in a spot where if you miss the ball rolls completely off the green down a big hill into just dirt about 75 feet from the pin (the ball would actually roll backwards even if you putted from the low side). If the pins were placed in legal spots and had actual flat areas, this course would be solid, just difficult to score on.

A challenging and rewarding course

I'm still fairly new to playing golf, so I was very surprised at how hard this course is compared to the course next to my house. Lots of really fun par 3s with good hazards. Next time I come back, I'm bringing a bunch of used/refurbished balls, I ended up killing over 20 balls, but that's mostly because I won't get off the tee till I make one in bounds. Pro shop prices are incredibly fair, had to buy some balls at the turn, but they were 30 for 2 dozen so it wasn't that bad.

I loved my time at the course, but I'm definitely going to spend a lot more time at the range improving my shot accuracy, before coming back though
