Type Public
Par 70
Length 5630 yards
Slope 112
Rating 67.2

Bruce Hills Golf Course is located in the north metro Detroit area near Romeo. Mature trees are scattered throughout the course, providing shade and a peacefully secluded feel. The par-70 layout is relatively short at only 5,630 yards form the back tees, making it an ideal round for beginners but it still provides good practice and a quick round for more advanced players. The golf course sprawls across a diverse terrain that allows for downhill and uphill approaches to the small, round greens, which are often sloped from back to front. Keeping the ball below the hole is the key to scoring well on this golf course. Bruce Hills' player-friendly layout only has four bunkers but water comes into play on 12 holes, providing the bulk of the course's challenges.

So SLOW

Pace was so slow that we didn't even finish our 18. We had 14 holes in after 4-4 1/2 hrs. Even though it was a Saturday. I would not waste my time nor my friends time playing this course again when there are so many other courses out there.

Not worth

Payed for 18 and ended up playing 9 because the conditions hair weren't up to par. (No pun intended)

Cart path is sketchy and bumpy, rough is extremely rough, I think they need more maintenance workers

We are sorry to hear about your experience here at Bruce Hills. Our rough mower broke down on Tuesday and we had to wait for parts to come in to fix it. Cart paths we know are an issue and are on our agenda to start repairing in the fall. I have been here 6 years now and the course is making steps each year with improvements. I don't know what you paid on golf now but im sure it was a pretty decent rate. We hope you would try and make it out back here again this summer.

Great Deal Anytime

Bruce Hills has maintained their course very well over the off season into this year. Prime playing conditions for everything except the tee boxes. They need to repair them on a weekly basis but they never do. Aside from that everything is on par. Pace of play is always a gamble. We booked a tee time at the tail end of an outing so we skipped around which is no big deal to me since I've played here so much but it is always a good deal for the price. It could easily be a $30 or $40 course if they somehow lengthened most holes.

Thanks for the review John, we try and make sure we have a good product for our guests day in and day out. Tee boxes will be worked on here starting in summer to early fall. We hope to see you again soon at the BH

Are you sure we played on the same course? The cart path at Bruce hills was tore up, the rough wasn't cut, either were the tee boxes. Ponds had a film of algae on them as well.

Overall course condition and play

I most say I did like this course a lot. The setting is very nice and a lot of nature. The scenery was very enjoyable also. The staff was excellent and very respectful. I would defiantly come back and suggest my friends to play here also. I also look forward to play the other course owned by them also.

great course

I really enjoyed playing this course. Greens and fairways are in pretty good shape. My only recommendation is the carts need a little bit of maintenance performed on them.

Unfair ways

the first 2 holes have big trees in the middle of the fairway, the 4th hole has a hidden pond 200 yards out. You cannot use your driver until hole number 5.

Power carts are in need of service.

We could not find help in the club house after the round to buy a beer, we left and will not be back.

Needs Some work.

Front side needs some work. The Greens are raised postage stamps on hole number 2, 4, and 5. They need some shoulders that do not drop off after two feet. Hole number five needs work on the fairway as they have underground leakage making it possible for you to loose the ball in the middle of the fairway. The rest of the course is fair test of golf except for number ten. Number ten should be made into a par three.

Decent Course

Not a bad course. Which direction you should drive the ball on certain holes is not clear because of obstructed view, and no 150 stake. Course plays well and is well kept. Slightly understaffed, and bag boys need guidance.

forgettable

We've played here before, course is never in "great" shape. Yardage markers are off if they even have one. Green are small and undulating (some far to much for size of green) then the pin placements on some of them are laughable. The price was right so we gave it another shot, probably not again.

First time golfing here. Won't be the last.

I really enjoyed this course. Golfed with a four some. My group all enjoyed the course. Enough challenge to be fun but not enough to be super frustrating. Course was in surprisingly good shape after significant rain the day before. Even better than the course conditions, I was able to book a hot deal on golf now and got a fantastic deal. The staff was great both in the pro shop and club house.

Course is in great shape

The course is in great shape, and the staff seem to appreciate your business. Only drawback was paying the online booking fee when I could have saved that by calling the pro shop myself. The price online was the same as the rate at the course but the online booking fee was extra.

Rainy day at golf course.

Course was well kept but there was standing water all over the place.feet got very wet. Course is pretty easy. You will shoot several scores lower than usual. Lots of rolling hills but fairways are very wide. Fun course but not if you are looking for a challenge.

There are quite a few water hazards. I would make sure to goggle earth it prior to playing. You have to use the right club on many holes. Still a very fun place to play for the money.

Great Bang for the Buck

Overall, great course for the price. Lots of nice scenery and wildlife. Greens are on the fast side and tend to be challenging. Lots of hills and change in elevation relative to the area. Fairways ranged from narrow to wide with holes ranging from long Par 3's, short and long Par 4's, and some monster Par 5's for the average golfer. All in all, great experience with great pace. This truly is a hidden gem for the price.
