Has that old course European seaside feel
This course has it's challenges. It's well worth the price. It reminded me of some of the courses around the British Isle's. Depending on the days, expect back ups, and ALWAYS expect to be paired up if you are in a two-some or solo..
Course layout was cool. Enjoy the links style play. The rest of the experience has some opportunity. The biggest issue and one of the worst issues i've seen on a golf course was the tee times. It was so many golfers stacked on top of each other. The round took longer than I would like, but I think they have an opportunity to just reduce the amount of tee times they schedule. And cut the grass around the fairways, and I think the course would be a place I would go back.
Not worth the cheap price
This course is very tight. No trees between holes and lots of areas where you can get hit from incoming shots. Pace was terrible, and it was an afternoon tee time. It’s basically a pasture. No alcohol license. Would not play or recommend this course.
Pace
Due to course length and difficulties
The tee times are way to close together
Example played first hole got to second tee and there were 4 groups on hole because it is a short hole one on green one walking to tee shots and two on tee waiting round took almost 5 hours unacceptable
What’s with card only?
I’m getting sick and tired of we only accept card only. I had already paid for the round online, but when we showed up, I wanted to get a small bucket of balls to warm up. I was going to pay cash, but they said they only accept card payment.
At the turn we stopped in to get some dogs, again card only. Then we were told you have to get the dogs yourself. Absolutely 0 costumer service.
The course is in good shape. Fairways are nicely groomed and the greens are in good shape. You had better be good at reading greens here, they have a lot of breaks, but roll true. Pace of play is spot on. They don’t seem to overbook the place.
Overall it was a nice round.

They need to add a couple of minutes between tee times it was slow crowded and league play was coming.
Excellent Value
Superb price for a very fair round of golf. Played blue tees and they played challenging yet “scoreable” when you put two decent shots together. Highly recommend the early morning weekday time as the rate is fantastic for what you get.
Top Notch Value. Unique Links style course.
Played here with 4 total people. Course was in very very good conditions. Unique Links style course which isn't super common in Michigan. Twilight was around 34 for 18 w/ cart which for the conditions is fantastic. Will return.
Bring a deck of cards
Great course but whoa, be prepared to wait on every shot on the front nine. There were 2-3 groups waiting on every single hole. Took us over 5 hours to finish our round. It was a Saturday. GO ON A WEEK DAY! Also, not a bad idea to bring a helmet. We were almost decapitated by about half a dozen wayward “golf shots”. This was definitely a wild West golfing experience.
Not Sure Why I Expect Anything Different…
Played the back 9 today and finished in just under three hours. Tee’d off on 10 to a twosome on the green. They finished before we got to our ball. Finished the hole in 9 minutes. Did not tee off on hole 11 for another 27 minutes. There were two groups in front of me waiting to tee off, by the time my group finished.
I understand trying to maximize revenue with as many tee times as you can. This does not need to be explained. I simply encourage the rangers to monitor the first two tee boxes for each 9, rather than just one. This seems to happen every single time I play this course, no matter if it’s the front or back, or the day of the week. I hope everyone who has a similar experience leaves a review too, and maybe ownership will take the hint. This has been happening for four seasons now. It is despicable that they continue operating like this & wasting people’s time and money.
