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.

Excellent Plot in need of a makeover

The course is on an excellent piece of land but it is in need of a full makeover. The bridges are under repair over the swamp but the clubhouse and course needs an upgrade. Poor bathrooms. Too many gimmick holes with weird turns or crossover from other holes. Too many tee boxes behind greens. The course needs to upgrade facilities and remap all the holes. Also someone needs to check the machinery as it leaked chemicals all over the greens and burnt them out.

Awful Experience

Worst customer service experience at The Myth. Staff closed the register at 6pm and pressed us to get off the course before our round was over.

Beautiful little gem

This is a shorter course, however, it's filled with challenge. It has rolling hills, water and sand, along with wavy greens. Plenty to give you an enjoyable round. It's a quiet course located in a tranquil area, full of nature.

Overpriced mess

Tee boxes are a mess…not a flat spot in sight, not a patch of grass to be found. Pace of play was not controlled what so ever. Waited an average of 20 minuets every time we got to the tee box. They have no right to be charging what they charge I would rather play Bruce hills during a rain storm in all honesty. They have signs everywhere to replace divots but don’t even provide seed to replace it…hence why the tee boxes are such a joke.
