Bruce Hills Golf Club

I hate to say it but this course is not what it used to be. When I arrived early and saw the golfers in cut off shirts, t shirts, drinking in the parking lot because most of the people blatantly brought there own coolers in front of the staff. No rangers or starters so people did whatever they wanted, I saw a group of six and people driving on greens laughing. I have no idea what happened but I hope it was only that one day and it is not always like that nowadays, the pace of play was so bad it made the round very annoying

The course was in great shape, however, the pace of play would have made a snail look like the road runner. Our tee time was 5:12, and we were set to go off after the league. With the rain delay, we teed off at 5:30. The back 9 was wide open, and we asked to go off on that, and were told no. However, we witnessed others going off on the back.
Our 9 holes took us over 2 1/2 hours to play (should take less than 2 hours). The last two 4-somes in the league were unbelievably slow. It makes for an aggravating round. To put it in perspective, our 3-some golfed the back 9 in 1 hour and 10 minutes (although we didnt get to putt on 2 greens because the sprinklers came on)
How could the course have helped? Tell the league to keep pace of play. Leagues make money for the golf courses, but, word of mouth from players delayed from extremely poor pace of play loses money.

Played this course several times over the years and it is not long but shot placement is required to score low. Several holes have water that you must lay up .Greens are large but can be tough depending on pin placement. Fairways in fair condition.

Front 9 were quite challenging, greens were very fast and challenging and pace was great.

The course was under managed and under-manned. The greens were spotty and horribly maintained. Areas around the green were cement like even in the thickest of rough. Tee boxes had as many rolling hills as the actual fairways. Every par 3 tee was like hitting out of the sand. Actually impossible to take real swings and good divots throughout the course. I won't be returning, or ever recommending the course.

Great staff and nice little course. the difficult greens make up for shortness of course.

Always fun to play. There was an outing in front of us so the last 4 holes were pretty slow, must of been a shotgun start, but it's not their fault.

There is lots of water in inconvenient places and makes the course a real challenge. The course was in fantastic shape and I will definitively be playing there again.

They really seemed to jam the 18 holes into a small space. Keep your head on a swivel and look out for others playing from your fairway. That being said, the course was in good shape and had some challenging holes. Definitely a course for the "weekend warriors" that's priced right. Was a pretty warm day but never saw a "cart girl" out which was odd. Tried to get a hotdog at the turn but they were out so I was offered a kielbasa instead. I could not penetrate it no matter how hard I bit into it. I think it had been sitting there awhile. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. All in all, if your looking for a relaxing round of golf and don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of super serious golf snobs, this is your place.

easy course, friendly stuff, good to play with a group of friends

Course is great in my beginner opinion. I've been playing for a few years but not a great golfer by any means but it's a great course. The cart pathways seem to not be taken care of nearly as well as the course but still a good course. I had fun. 9/10 would play again.

Challenging course. Great pace of play. No. 12 with the woods on the left is always a little tricky.

the course was overbooked. played 4 holes on the front nine and waited 7 to 10 minutes for every shot. went over to back nine and it looked o.k. Played 2 holes and caught up to the group ahead and tried to stay but it too was backed up. cart paths are in bad need of repair, if you stayed on them your teeth could come loose.

Challenging course with many doglegs. Beautiful yet memorable 8th hole stands out. Very quiet and serene. Good value for money.

Couple holes have sprinkler head issues causing standing water problems. Greens in good shape. Pro shop guy always chippy.

This is a very pleasant course with very nice greens. Good combo of easy and challenging holes.

6:48a.m. t-time. Arrived 4 minutes late. One party on the t-box which had a later t-time than us. They were a foursome and us a twosome. We asked when they're t-time was and they told us it was later than ours and let us play. Great. OK no problem there. However the problem began when we walked through the door. We arrived 4 minutes late. And before the man behind the counter even checked to see if there was anyone on the t-box, proceeded to tell us "that if we were late again, he would have to fit us in whenever there was an opening, and that the course doesn't see any of the money form golfnow." For starters, there was one group already at the t-box, and when we asked them what they're t-time was, it was well behind ours. The counter help was very RUDE. Next, we keep pace of play, like to keep the game moving not wanting to lose momentum. We had players hitting up on us, as well as the course decided to start cutting fairways and greens around 8:30. We had to wait for grounds crew to finish cutting greens and fairways, as well as them waiting for us to leave the green. NOT a good experience at all. We have played this course before, and NEVER experienced this kind of treatment, however it has left us with the thought that this would be a last resort choice for courses to play, and there's alot of courses to choose from.

I have played this course several times before so I am somewhat familiar with it. We both enjoyed it and I would absolutely play it again. It is just enough challenging with all of the water holes on the course.

short course with some interesting holes, tee boxes and cart paths require maintenance.
the only real issue i have is the small domed greens.
you can hit a great approach shot, but due to the domed shape of the greens, the ball will roll off the green
depending on pin location if you misread a putt, the ball will roll off the green.
after 18 holes the greens lost their humor/character & were just annoying.
if you think you can putt & read greens this would be a good reality check.

Bruce hills paired us up with a older 2 some, which is fine because I know they can do that, but what's not fine is lying to me. When I pulled up there was a lot of cars there, when I got in the club house I asked if he had an outing going on and they told me no and that they just had a lot of reservations. Bruce hills actually had us directly behind an outing. Every hole we waited 10-15 mins before teeing off. After 9 holes we just left, I couldn't deal with hitting then waiting so long. So the good price we paid on golf now for 18 and a cart turned into a horrible price for 9 and a cart.
The course greens and fairways were in good shape, but I will never go back no matter how cheap it may go. It's not worth waiting all day to play.
If you want to golf in the Bruce twp area I recommend going to heather hills. Great course great rate of play there
