The Myth Golf & Banquet used to be known as Beaver Creek before a major renovation in 2007. The former course was transformed into a scenic 18-hole championship golf course and a nine-hole, par-3 course. The courses were redone from the tees to the greens, one major improvement was the removal of all artificial tees. The 18-hole golf course has a traditional but challenging design that is still playable for all skill levels. The short course offers great practice for beginners and it's gentle enough for juniors. It's a good layout for families to play, but more advanced players can also enjoy a fast, casual round of practice. The Myth has a scenic location adjacent to Lake Orion, it sits on protected land that provides a home to a variety of wildlife. Sandhill cranes can often be seen throughout the golf course.

The course is in very good condition with many improvements to the cart paths and taking out the steps on #5. The owners are doing a great job. The green on #6 is impossible if you get above the hole but could probably be leveled out some to make it more playable. The traps are in better condition than most in Oakland County that I have seen this year. Thanks.

Very disappointing...

This course is bad....period. Right from the tee boxes to the putting greens, everything needs repair. Add to it the swarm of insects and mosquitoes at this course. The course has such an interesting layout but is just not maintained. I would not recommend this course in its current conditions.

Poor course management

Hour and a half for less than 5 holes. Very disappointing experience. Had to enjoy the game when you spend more time waiting between shots and worried about being hit.

This course over books every time

I’ve played this course a couple times now. It really has great potential. The staff was friendly and I love that they make it easy to get something to eat at the then. However, they over book the course. It’s not really enjoyable when you have to wait 20 minutes on every hole to tee off. I wish they would manage pace of play better. For that reason I will never golf at this course again.

1st Time @ Course

Overall, this course was beautiful and enjoyable! Course was challenging, but fun to navigate. All of staff was very helpful and friendly, except for the young blonde girl at the front desk, who made me want to leave before I even teed off. Her attitude both in person and over the phone we’re shocking and disgraceful. I sincerely hope her actions were corrected as the front desk role creates the 1st (and too often last) impression for the course. So glad I stayed to play anyway, because the course and other staff members held up their reputation and did not disappoint!!

Extremely Slow

Booked 18 but could only play 9 due to the course being so full. There were four groups ahead of us just waiting to tee off at the turn.
