Course Highlights
Brae Burn's strategic layout features a mix of short par 4s and hilly terrain that rewards thoughtful play. Groomed fairways, fast greens, and a smooth pace of play consistently deliver strong value for golfers.

Rating 69.2

Brae Burn Golf Club in Plymouth has a traditional layout with a landscape that ranges from gently rolling to wildly undulating. On most holes, elevated tees play to elevated greens. The large, undulating greens usually slope back to front. Golfers will encounter water on 15 holes and the fairways are lined with mature trees. The bunkering is sparse but strategically placed and there are also rough-enhanced moguls protecting the greens, a unique feature at Brae Burn. One tip if it is your first time on the golf course is to study the course diagram beforehand since there are many hidden ponds that come into play on the fairways and greensides. The course's most famous hole is the par-5 13th, nicknamed "The Monster" since it measures a devilish 666 yards. This tricky hole double doglegs to the left and then back towards the right.

$24 gem

First time playing this course and it was great. Well taken care of course, with challenging greens. The layout may seem a bit repetitive to fantastic players, but it is a true challenge to play for the champions tees. The 13th hole is a nearly 700 yard par 5 with two dog legs, very fun. Would definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys golf.

Nice course layout

Course is very challenging,only problem is they absolutely packed the course.Golf outing in morning and they sold tee times right after outing.Took us 5 1/2 hrs to play 18,literally sat 10-15 mins every hole.Also greens were all aerated so ball was bouncing all over the place on greens.Was one of my favorite courses growing up,very disappointed.Probably won’t go back

Pretty Bad shape - needs major investment

Looks like it has little investment for many years. Front 9 were in horrible shape. Would not recommend for the money they are charging. There are many better courses in area. Could potentially be a nice course again with some substantial investment. Wound NOT recommendl unless heavily discounted.

Meh

I’m all for a “beater” course, and this is without a doubt a beater. It’s short and sort of fun, but to charge $27 for nine is a joke. I won’t be back at that price. If it was $27 for 18 I’d be back for sure.

Ranger!

3 hour front 9. Why people wait on the tee box for people to clear the green on a par 4 is beyond me. You're not going to hit it 300 yards! And when you finally go after 2 groups are staring at you...you duff it into the water. If you golf with ladies..and they aren't good...send them to their tee box to hit FIRST...so I don't have to watch you duff your 300 yard ONCE IN A LIFETIME 50 yards into the water...then sit there and watch the ladies sink 4 balls straight into the water too. Pace of play!!!

Enjoyable afternoon.

90 degree day, no breeze. Course was fair, greens quite tricky. A bit slow at times, good value for the money.

Great Course Great value

Hidden Gem in the suburbs of Detroit. Great course to play on the way home from work. Greens can be slicker then snot. Some holes allow for a big driver to reach a par 4 in one shot. Monster # 13 is no joke for a pro or armature.
