Question Mark

The course covers lots of real estate, and offers some panoramic views of Lake Charlevoix and even Lake Michigan. Some holes are among the best in the North. Many challenging holes with "target" golf expectations. Not as manicured as some in Northern Michigan, but well worth playing at the right fee.

Great course, not as well known.

The course was very enjoyable to play, great views, and a very fun and challenging layout. This, is a course that you don't here a lot about, but well worth playing.

Good Layout gone Bad

I have always wanted to play the course but the price was far too expensive, even on GolfNow. Many of my friends had stated that it was always over priced. My suspicions on this course were also heightened by the fact that the parking lot always seemed near empty, even at peak golf time. However, the $40 fee was the lowest I had seen in years, so I gave it a go. I really liked the layout of the course and some spectacular views of Lake Michigan but that is where my likes end. I was driving the ball accurately this day, I could see how the tight fairways would cause fits for an average golfer. My difficulties were in my approach and on the greens. At a 12 Handicap, these two parts of the game really tested me. Again, I liked the layout but a bit too difficult for me. The course conditions were atrocious. Fungus on most of the greens. The first cut of rough had dandelions 6 inches long, (on Memorial Day weekend to boot). I needed my weed wacker before I hit several shots. The only way I would play this course again, would be for a far lower price ($20-$25). Course is being mismanaged and $0 being spent to improve the condition.

Not worth the price compared to other courses

The course was not in very good shape - the greens were inconsistent, fairways were rough with 'critter' damage, and some of the tee boxes needed mowing.

Based on the other courses we played the same weekend, this was not good value for the amount we had to play and the condition of the course.

Very Interesting Layout

Loved the great views of Lake Charlevoix and Lake Michigan from some of the holes. The course could have been in a little better condition, but it is still early in the season. Some very interesting holes, lots of sand traps. Eleven traps on number eleven!

Well Maintained

Hadn't played Dunmaglas in about 4 years. Back then I felt it was going downhill. Upon returning last week I found the track to be very well maintained and definitely worth a play. Amazing views, fun quirky holes and always a challenge. I'll return back next year for certain. Pleased to see the place being taken care of.....this course is a nightmare for 1st timers so try to play with someone who has some course knowledge. Course goes out and doesn't come back until the 18th so stock up in clubhouse before heading out.

Scenic & Quick

The staff was friendly, the course was lush, and the weather was excellent - what more could you ask? Even better, there was hardly anyone there on an August Sunday, so we were able to zip around in less than 4 hours without rushing.

Nice Course

Like most of the layout. A couple of holes had sharp doglegs and had no idea what laid ahead. This course has great views of the Charlevoix area. Greens were hard to read. Gentle breaks you can not pick up looking. But they putted very good. Fairways and tees were in top notch condition. I would go back and play this course.

Absolutely Wonderful!

I have been playing Dunmaglas since 1992. Although my skills have diminished significantly, I always look forward to my trip to Petoskey, Michigan and several rounds at Dunmaglas. This course was a challenge for me as a single digit player, but the beauty always draws me back as a 20 handicapper. I would describe the course as rustic. The course design allows you to feel like you are the only foursome on the course... pace of play is usually in your hands.

The staff at Dunmaglas is incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you get a chance to be served by Dale you will appreciate his style and sincerity for you to enjoy your experience!

From the tips, it is all you can handle!

Worth the drive!!!
