About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 70
Length 6511 yards
Slope 123
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.

Solid

The course is in really good shape. Course layout is weird in spots, but no gimmick holes. Love playing 'The Monster', always fun trying to birdie the longest par 5 in Michigan (#13).

rain check policy

Paid for 18, played four holes, received rain check credit for less than nine holes because we booked with golf now. Greens were decent the rest of what we saw of the course was in bad shape.

Windy weather
Used cart

Fairways and rough were overflowing with clippings, the rough especially. It had been cut several days previously because the clippings were dried out. Looked like straw in many areas. Long straw. This excess of clippings made it easy to lose balls even in the first cut. Worse than dealing with leaves in the fall. Disappointing.

First Time Playing

Met my expectations.

First round of the year and first time playing here. Good value for the money. Booked it the night before and was the first one off the tee at 8:07. Big greens with a lot of roll downhill if you're above the cup. Grass was a bit long and hid my ball several times. Still got 18 in 3.5 hours. Not a country club but worth the trip there and the $28 bucks it cost for 18 and a cart. I'd go there again to what it around.

Overbooked

I played as a single. There was 4 carts on every hole, impossible to play through. Grass uncut, lose a ball 6ft off the fairway which also caused delays in play. Everyone was looking for their balls even after watching it land. Staff was supposed to bring me a burger out on the course, that nvr happened.

No fairways cut with an even mid rough throughout the whole course, greens were bumpy, and the course was still soaked from rain a few days before. Fun layout and may be worth playing later in the year.

Average at best conditions

This course has a lot of areas that are in serious need of repairs. Parts of the course are in good condition.....so it just really depends on where you end up!! We used Golf Now and saved a few dollars, but it was still about $5 per person for nine holes too high!!!

Great value for the $$

This course is the best value for your money. It isn't the most challenging course but the greens are well maintained and challenging. The gun range next door can be annoying. The carts here are typically in bad shape too.

Monster got me.

The course sets up for a straight drive except for the Monster hole. Golfers have to draw the ball or use less club when driving. I tried a draw and the the Monster won!

Old Course That Is Fun To Play

First time my group played Brae Burn. It was a great time for all. Pace was a bit slow due foursome in front that knew nothing about "ready golf". Where was a Marshall? Cart paths need repaving. White tee markers were AWOL. We don hit far enough to play back tees. Silver tees were next best option which made course a bit short. Overall a great time and we will play Brae Burn again.
