Timber Trace Golf Club

I booked through golfnow.com and the rates and course were well worth the 45 minute drive. I will will continue to play this course throughout the season because it is very well taken care of, plays just over 7000 yds from the tips, and is the most affordable course of its kind in the area.

Overall - very good - and I've played this course a number of times with same reaction. Well maintained course, good pricing, friendly staff.
Only reason I did not give 5 stars on the rating - is I'm not a fan of the two long cart rides between holes on the back nine.

Well worth the drive out to Pinckney. Course was in fantastic shape, only $42 for seniors and $44 for regulars in the morning on the weekends. There is a lot of trouble, but the fairways are generous. Big misses off the tee will find woods or heather, but again, fairly forgiving, with plenty of scoring holes! Couldn't be happier after playing.

Timber Trace has always been a favorite. Unfortunately, we had the longest round ever experienced (just over 5 hours). Probably had something to due with no starter or rangers seen throughout the round. Also noticed that the maintenance seemed to be a little lacking. Greens had not been mowed and were slower than normal. Cart paths are showing age, especially the route past Lake Linden. Hope these issues don't become the norm. On the plus side we had the best rate ever from GolfNow.com.

Course was in great shape. Timber Trace is on a beautiful piece of land. Plenty of bunkers to keep it interesting.
Greens were in excellent condition. I will return to this course often in the future.

The last time I played the traps were in great shape,but not now. The greens are slower, but the course has remained the same and beautiful.They need to do some upkeeping.Lots of little stones on the greens.Please don't let this go. It could be a top of line course.It used to be five years ago.

Great value for the money. Course was in excellent shape, however, cart paths are in poor conditions. Staff was pleasant and cordial and very accommodative for a single player.

Worth the drive to Pinkney. Great course with plenty of teeing options for all levels. Greens rolled great and the overall condition would rival most private clubs. Great value thru golfnow.com

Course was in great shape, Challenging greens, Can't wait to play it again.

Not a huge fan of courses that run through subdivisions, basically because that means you can't walk them. The 5 minute cart ride between 12-13, and again between 16-17 kills any hopes of ever being able to walk this place. Most of the houses are far enough off the course and hidden in the trees that they don't take away from the overall natural beauty. Difficulty level is moderate (I played gold tees). Lot's of tree lined fairways, mostly straight, but with a fair amout of landing area. The swale surrounding the fairways will collect radically errant tee shots, which I could see slowing play (i was first off, so pace of play was not an issue). A fair amount of bunkering around the course will collect many shots too. Bunkers were in decent condition, though far from great. Greens were in good condition, roll well, and average speed. Overall, a visually pleasing, semi-rolling layout, that is fun to play. I would recommend, though there are many around I like better.

Although not close to an interstate highway, this course is well worth the trip. The layout, scenery and long cart drives around Lake Wallaby make the golf experience quite unique. No complaints but it is too bad that poa anna has crept into a number of greens making the roll erratic. You will not be disappointed!

There are a lot of coures in Pickney area, but Timber Trace is a definate must. Championship golf course, good variety of holes and I go back every year.

This course is in a wonderful setting in Pinckney, MI. It has a lot of wide fairways. It is a great course for women as you can reach most par 4's in 2 shots.

Timber Trice is a great track, plenty of sand to make you feel you should bring a 6 pack of Corona in order to complete your day at the beach.

When I played her we were only 48 hours from our last snow. The fairways are generous, the greens rolled true and remarkably true considering the winter we've had.

The course needed some love as far as post winter maintenance but, that being said the grounds crew was out in force bringing this gem back from it's long winter nap. Kudos to the grounds crew as they would stop working and power down the blowers and mowers while one would attempt to make their shot.

I loved the layout and the views were amazing (can't wait to play her after she greens up and the foliage pops)

I will be back to donate more golf balls very soon.

it was in good condition for this time of year. no food in the clubhouse afterwards. a little bummer

Aptly named course, as it winds through a forest of oaks and pines. On the day we played, the trees were in full autumn display...very impressive visuals all the way around the course. The course itself is pure eye candy, too. It's challenging without being extremely difficult, with numerous bunkers but few forced carries. Not a poor or dull hole on the course, with a nice mix of short and long holes, straightaways and doglegs, through forests and prairie. Greens all have shape to them, so not many flat putts, but no roller coasters. The few homes on the course are well out of the way for errant shots, with one obvious exception off the tee on the 8th hole (wouldn't take that house for free!). Given the beauty of the course, very good conditioning, and the friendliness of the staff...we'll be back again and again.

Picked it on past experience and price. We love the home just left of and near the first green. Check out the front doors. But I digress.
The course was not very crowded and the pace was excellent on the front. The back was held up by a slow foursome, two groups in front of my twosome. Conditions were very good but the greens were slower than I like. The entire drive from the US 23 exit into the Pinckney area is very pretty this time of year. The course is also very scenic. A good couples course for the average golfers.

Played on a crisp fall day and the course was in excellent condition . . . love the course. The five minute ride through the wet lands was enjoyable.

Good tee boxes, Great fairways and greens. Need to stay on proper side of fairway to have a good shot into green.Nice ride on back nine to get to the 13th tee.

I traveled about an hour to play here and was well worth it offering 5 sets of tees for all different types of golfers very tough course.
