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.

Scope for improvement

The course has an up north feel with wooden bridges connecting holes. It is built on a swamp with a lot of care for the environment which I appreciate. However the tee boxes need work as it difficult to find a flat area. The greens need to be sped up they’re extremely slow and for golfers used to fast greens this is a problem.

The holes are challenging and varied and presents a good challenge.

Be sure to have enough balls as it is quite easy to lose them if you are not accurate

The other Vargo golf courses of Hampton and Bruce Hills have much nicer greens

Slow Saturday

Painfully slow on a Saturday morning. Just under 3 hours to play the front - we just gave up and left without playing the back. Unfortunately, there’s not much the rangers can do. Too many short, tight par 4s so groups never spread out. Several times the group behind us rolled up to the tee just as the group ahead was leaving. Half the tee boxes are just trashed and I can’t figure out why since rest of the course is well maintained. Could be a fun course on a weekday, but I won’t be back on a weekend. On the plus side, they just got brand new carts! Please fix the tees!

Basic course for a basic price

The tees, greens, carts, and clubhouse are never in great shape there but overall it’s not an expensive round and you’re still out golfing. Always manage to have fun and the course layout is fun without being too challenging or too easy.

Better than expected

I’m a new golfer and was worried after reading the reviews on here. However, I was really impressed! The tee box was a little rough, but overall the course wasn’t bad. For a new golfer this course was perfect for me and still fun for my husband that has been golfing for 5+ years.

Push carts

There’s no strap so clubs just topple off. Bring something to hold your bag.

Nice par 3. Multiple holes over water and elevation changes for a good “mini course” feel.
