Brae Burn Golf Club
About
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.

Road construction and closures made getting to the course entrance problematic.
Best shape ever
I’ve always thought this was a great property that needed better care. This was the best shape I’ve ever seen this course in. The greens ran fast and true. The fairways were in better shape than I ever remember. There’s definitely room for improvement but I’m far more likely to return after his visit.
Hello, homer223. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Nice Course
Nice course with friendly staff. Due to a lot of rain, some areas of the course were very wet. Average course difficulty. Pace of play was good (4 hour round - twosome)
Thank you for visiting us at Brae Burn Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.

Could’ve been better
I’ve played this course a few times and it’s definitely a challenge for a mid to high handicap golfer like myself. The one downfall was that there was no Ranger to ensure that certain groups were following golf etiquette. 18 holes typically takes me between 2.5-3 hours by myself, but I was unfortunately stuck behind a foursome of golfers that had obviously never been taught about pace of play or general acceptable golf behavior. What should’ve been a fairly quick and easy morning on the links turned into nearly 6 hours of being stuck behind a group of shirtless middle-aged men that proceeded to drive ball after ball into the wood line, grab 2 to 3 more balls each, and send those balls to the same fate. By hole 15, I had had enough and called it a day, since this had been going on since hole 4. Please...assign a Ranger to ensure pace of play is adequate.

Brae Burn
Very nice experience overall. Nice variety of terrain and elevations. Fairways are in terrific shape.
The course was cart path only when I played, due to rain... which also slowed the greens down... but that is uncontrollable.
Nice experience at a very fair price! I will definitely play there again.

Tough course at a good price
Brae Burn is a nice little hidden gem in Plymouth. The course isn't particularly long or difficult (aside from the Monster Par 5), but there are lots of challenging greens that keep you on your toes—lots of tiers, slopes and false fronts that keep you from getting too comfortable out there no matter how good you're hitting your tee shots/irons.

brae burn, plymouth, michigan
good course, just avoid playing it during the week when the leagues are playing. My partner and I abandoned playing the full 18 on the 10th. Too slow.

People were very helpful and friendly. Course was challenging. Unfortunately due to a very heavy overnight rain the course was very wet. That being said we still enjoyed the round.

Issa no from me dog
If you are in search of a pleasant golf experience on a nice golf course, do NOT come here. I’ve only been to probably 20 golf courses in my life, but this was by far the worst one I’ve ever been to. The only thing good about this course I could say is that the greens aren’t too slow and they are in decent condition. The fairways are like hitting out of light rough in most spots, and the grass in the rough isn’t grown very well. The course layout is terrible, especially the 666 yard par 5, the hole is a dog leg left off the tee and then a dog leg right into the green. If you do not play your second far enough left, you will be blocked out. Like I said before, very poor course design. I would almost have to have someone pay ME to play here. I am the type of person who can never get enough golf and will play as much as possible. At this course, I left after 9 holes because of how terrible the experience was. DO NOT come here if you want to golf in a nice environment. Definitely not up to par with my standards.

Greens Concerns
Overall the course was in good condition for this time of the year. The only issue we had has a group were the greens and some of pin placements, due to the steepness of the greens and the wind conditions, there were many times we were unable to keep the balls close to the hole on any down hill put. the entire foursome had too many 3 putts, which inflated our scores and slowed down the pace of play.

Solid late season round
Late season conditions but the course was still well kept. What would you expect from late October in Michigan.
Hi Justin, thank you for the excellent 4-star review! #BraeBurnGolfClub
Staff
Guy at front desk. Not a people person at all. Not the 1st time. But I like the course, so I gave it another shot. Tall skinny guy that wears his glasses on his nose. Bad manners to a customer. At least this was my experience.
