Sunset view of 13th green. Hardest, longest hole in the golf course. Green is deep, look where the pin is Photo submitted by BuffaloBen15 on 08/25/2019

17th green. Three tiered with two sections guarded by water. You end up on the wrong third of the green and you may have to putt through some fringe or chip over some rough WITH YOUR BALL ON THE GREEN in order to reach the right tier. Photo submitted by BuffaloBen15 on 08/25/2019

Left of the 1st green. Tee shot is 40 to 50 feet downhill and approach shot is slightly uphill again. The entire green slopes from back left to front right. Do not go in the left bunker especially with this pin placement. Photo submitted by BuffaloBen15 on 08/25/2019

A few quirky holes
Course was in great shape but there are some holes that are a little too quirky for my liking. #10 & #12 are ridiculous uphill tee shots that I could do without. Unless you know where to aim, you could easily hit a good tee shot and lose your ball. If golfnow offers a cheap hotdeal, I'd consider playing there more often otherwise I'd rather go to nearby Metamora or Boulder Pointe
elevation elevation
i can see why they call thisi course devils ridge. #10, 11 and 12 r some very interested holes. the front plays fair but the back is really where the challenge is. greens were in excellent shape and rolling true. had a blast. would come back anyday and play this course.
Thank you eric, for your review! We are happy that you had a great experience and we hope to see you back soon!
The Views
The course was in great condition except that they were aerating and sanding the greens, but that's to be expected at this time of year. It was a great round.
Thank you Ruz for your review, we are glad that you had an enjoyable round and that you were understanding of our scheduled maintenance to keep the course in great shape!
Devil's Ridge GC
The challenges are numerous and one should study the course before playing each hole.
Beautiful views, fantastic conditions and FAST greens!
Devils ridge... just the name it self is intimidating. This is a NICE facility, it's secluded yet just minutes off of M24 for easy access. Nice up to date club house and facilities, staff was really friendly, course was in beautiful shape and for the price you can get on here 100% recommend you trying it at least once! Hole #10 leaves me with nightmares, pending on the tees you play you have to hit an uphill 180 yard shot with some loft for it to land softly on the SMALL landing area in the fairway, then a 90* left to a green about 60-70 feet down into a valley, two clean iron shots and you're looking at a bird but anything strays off line and you're praying for a 6. Bring a camera, lots of nice elevated tee boxes showing you the beauty of the area you're in, fall time and you get some awesome colors in your backdrop. Pace of play was OK, 1-13 we we're crusing but they set off an outing on hole 13 at 1030am we had the first time of the day at 728am and ran right into the outing as a foursome. They did warn us about the outing once we got the the course but at the point it was far too late to play somewhere else so we just had to deal. Lots of denim and cellphone speakers in the outing but they seemed to be having fun and respecting the course, just not anyone else's time but I'll over look it this time and hope it doesn't happen next time!
u600084502, thanks for reaching out for such a detailed review! We appreciate your honest feedback and taking the time to give us and other golfers an evaluation on the course. We do apologize for the pace of play, but we hope to see you back out soon!
Awesome
Awesome course with nice elevation changes. Couple tricky holes. Great shape. Too many people on the course, nice day.
cclijones33, thanks for the great review and recommendation! We are so glad you enjoyed the course conditions and the challenge of the course. We look forward to having you back out soon!
Great shape, poor pace
Course was in great shape. We heard the greens were in rough shape, no clue who would say that! Tees and greens in excellent shape. The only problem was the pace of play. Front nine 1:45, back nine 3:15. They started a modified shotgun outing on hole six that we caught at the turn. I get that they left a gap of 5 holes between us, but that only works if we would have teed off at the same time! They didn't start until 30 minutes after we started, so on 4 tee we had like 8 groups headed out in front of us...c'mon man! Back 9 was a nightmare. I realize we got a great deal so can' t complain much, but if a deal looks to good to be true, it probably is! Great course, well maintained, nice staff, including bev cart service, just a bad tee running decision.
mlac247, thanks for the great review and recommendation. We do apologize for the pace of play issue and the miscommunication on the shotgun start. We would like to invite you back out to play again. Please feel free to reach out to us at devilsridgeteetimes@outlook.com for a promotional price on your next round.
Slow pace of play
Nice course and challenging, waited too long on every hole. 5.5 hours to play 18. Course torn up. Greens need repair. Scenic.
Fantastic Course
Course was fantastic. Greens fairways and tee boxes were immaculate. Excellent course layout. Finished round in 4 hours playing in a foursome. Highly recommended for anyone who is in the area. Excellent deal on Golf Now!
So glad to hear you enjoyed our course and we can't wait to have you back! We hope to continue to deliver immaculate conditions at a value our golfer's enjoy. Thank you for your review!
Slow course but what do you expec for $20
Nice course. 3 Jenky holes. Play was slow had to wait on every shot

We do apologize about the pace during your round. We'd love to have you back for another round, and hopefully have another chance to exceed all of your expectations! Please email us at devilsridgeteetimes@outlook.com to further discuss!
Favorite Course in Metro Detroit!!
While I don't want to make this course more crowded--part of its charm is the price and its isolation at the end of a dirt road, in the woods, beautiful course--I have to be honest: I have played most of the courses in the area, and this is my favorite and a great bargain. Course is in great shape and very challenging, staff is excellent, and the pace tends to be decent. Top tier.
Northern Michigan type course
Staff extremely friendly, course in very good shape, food good value and very good.
Thank you for the excellent review! We're glad you enjoyed playing our course, and found us to be valuable. Can't wait to see you back!
Excellent course
The course was in very good condition and the pace of play was fast, just how we like it. My only complaint would be with the grounds crew who were constantly in the way, driving right in front of us as we were about to hit several times and paying no attention to the golfers. Usually the grounds crew will turn off their mowers or move out of the fairway as your hitting, not these guys!! Very strange!! But nonetheless, the course was in awesome condition and the staff is excellent
Thanks for taking the time to review our course! We're glad you found our staff and the course to be great! We apologize about your experience with the grounds crew, and will be discussing your complaint as a staff. Please do e-mail us at devilsridgeteetimes@outlook.com if you wish to further discuss. Thanks again!
Fantastic Experience!
This was my first time playing this course, and when my girlfriend's father asked if I wanted to golf, I said sure! I consider myself to be a "less than average" golfer, typically just going out and hitting the ball with a few friends, etc. What a great course this is in northern Oakland county! Picturesque views on most of the front nine, challenges at every turn, etc. The course conditions themselves were absolutely astounding, comparable to many of the courses one would find up north! Accurate tee shots, irons, and approaches are required on this course. Some holes are a cakewalk while others are a very big challenge! I loved the layout, Golf sometimes ends up with you hitting blindly around a dog-log, so be it! Pace of play was solid, 4 hours for 18 in a threesome. Overall, extremely satisfied and will be back again!
Wow!! What a fantastic review! We are thrilled that you had such a great time with your girlfriend's father, and are thankful he brought you to us for a true golf experience! We can't wait to see you back.
Great deal
Awesome hot deal. Greens were slow but fair. Hard pin placements. Overall not bad.
Thanks for the review! We're glad you had a good time playing our course and can't to see you back out here. Visit us soon!
Great Course & Great Condition
Devil's Ridge is a great course and is in great shape from tee to green. I really enjoy this golf course. Only a few holes are really challenging and the rest are very fair. If you have not played here before, your missing out on a gem!.
Thanks so much for the excellent review! We are so glad that you find out course to be challenging. We can't wait to see you back at Devil's Ridge!
Hidden Gem
Playing at Devil's Ridge for the 3rd time this summer, the layout and design of this course continue to draw me back. Although several holes are not traditionally layed out, this course stresses accurate tee shots and creative approache shots, making it both challenging and fun. The true reason that this course stands out to me, though, is that the greens are large, fast, and smooth. Although I do like courses that boast long straight par 4s allowing the driver to be tee'd up more regularly, this course encourages accurate iron shots, which can't hurt any golfer. My overall pace of play was just under 4 hours for 18, the food was good, and the staff was exceptional. No complaints.
Wow!! What a great review to read. We are thrilled that your overall experience was a positive one. Your feedback is true, and we appreciate the thoroughness of your review. We look forward to seeing you back at Devil's Ridge!
Best Course In North Oakland County
Great course. Could not have been a better experience. Staff was great. Loaded clubs right from the trunk of the car. Didn't have to do a thing. They were even cleaned before i teed off. Starter was very friendly and informative. Had a wonderful time. Course looked and played nice. Great value for my money. Best course in North Oakland county for my opinion.
Thank you for the awesome review! We are thrilled that your overall experience was an excellent one, and are very honored that you named us the top course in Oakland County! We can't wait to see you back. :)
Horrible layout for golfers
I am puzzled as to how this course has received so many positive reviews. The best I can figure is that most of the reviews on here are from high handicappers who go out to enjoy beer and lose 3 sleeves. I played here twice and I will NEVER play here again. The second time I only played here because a client of mine wanted to play it. I LIVE in Oxford so distance is not a factor for me. The layout is just awful. Who wants to hit a 7 iron off the tee? I mean seriously, this course is ridiculous. Most of the time you basically just have to guess because you are hitting over a hill to a narrow dogleg. I actually shot decent score and hated every minute of it. You rarely get to have a reward of seeing your well hit shot land in the fairway because the landing area is usually out of sight. You never get to hit driver (except hole #1) and you are constantly questioning where to hit the ball. The funny part is that ALL (literally all, with no exceptions) of the golfers that I have talked to have the same opinion of this course which is why it is so curious that this place gets such good reviews here. It is a ridiculous layout but it is pretty and in great shape.
Thank you for taking the time to review the course. We appreciate you taking the time to visit. Unfortunately, we cannot change the layout of the course; however, we strive to offer a great experience and are happy that you enjoyed the view and conditions of the course.
You'll love it or you'll hate it...if you hate it you are an idiot.
It took me way too long to write this review. Played here in early May with my dad/brother-in-laws...It was the first time for all of us and we all loved it.
I heard going in that it is a course the takes some strategy and targeted shots so I was prepared for that. Definitely didn't use the driver as much as other courses I have played. It can make for a long round if you aren't using a range finder.
The course truly reminded me of up-north golf. A lot of undulation in the fairways. Every hole is different and offers a great challenge. I also liked how each hole has a name.
We were very fortunate to have awesome weather and a poor weather forecast, so the course wasn't packed. Made for a great pace of play (18 holes in about 4 hours, despite my errant shots).
I won't go hole-by-hole and describe them. This course is awesome. Course conditions from tee boxes to greens were fantastic. You need to play here/ Be prepared to have to think and make some targeted shots. I will be back to play again, and so will you.
Wow!! Thank you so much for the excellent rating! We are so sorry that we accidentally missed this gem of a review and didn't respond sooner. First off, you are absolutely right, the course does require some targeted shots, but what's golf without a challenge! We are glad that you found value in playing our course, and can't wait to have you back. We appreciate you!
Thank you got2golf36 for your review, we are glad that you enjoyed the course conditions. You are not the first person to say that 10 and 12 arent the most friendly but hopefully you will find them a bit less challenging the next time you play. Hope to see you soon!
