Chandler Park Golf Course

Wonderful executive style course, great greens, lush fairways, and enough of a challenge to feel rewarded for making birdie. Played early morning with a buddy, 2nd group off, pace was fantastic, we finished in 3.5 hours. Front nine is good for working longer irons, back lengthens up a bit for driver and 3w use from the tees. Course can get backed up at times but the company is always easy going.

had 10;37 tee times left course at 340pm had obligations only got to play 12 holes 3 of us they said it was 15i. backup for dew but that was not what i seen they had a golf outing that backed everything up when i complained they said not their fault no refund rainncheck how is that fair u cant show up 20 minutes late for your tee times

I had 10:37 tee times & did not tee off til 11:25 then I left after 12 holes at 5:30 because the wait was ridiculous

My expectations were low for Chandler on my first visit. I was expecting poorly maintained course, mainly due to its location. To my surprise the course was a good challenge, well maintained and fun to play. I have not been 3 times and enjoyed it every time. It's not an especially long course, but driver is needed. The other great thing about this course is that it is always available at a great price on Golf Now, usually $15 to $20 a round with a cart.

A fairly simple track. Greens were in great shape! Short but very small greens. Come play where they say Babe Ruth and Joe Louis played! All around fun.

Vargo needs to add more fresh sand to the fairway bunkers.

The lady tee boxes needed to be cut but overall the golf experience was very good.

Chandler Park for $15 is a great deal for a sunday afternoon. I was a surprised that the course was not in as good of shape as it usually is. The fairways were a bit overgrown, and greens were a little slow. Its the first time I have seen it like that, although we did have rain the nite before. Still a great bargin for Sunday afternoon.

I like the greens on this course. The ball rolls pretty true and the breaks are fair.

Flat and not overly long. Back 9 is far more interesting than the front 9. City owned so it needs some funding to make things a little nicer, But you get what you pay for so it's a fair deal. Been playing here for over 40 years and really enjoy it

I played this course as part of my mission to complete the tour of public courses within the city of Detroit that are still currently operating. To my knowledge that includes only three courses: Rouge Park, Palmer Park, and Chandler Park...all operated by the same management company (I was told New Rogell closed May of '13?).

As the last leg of this "tour" I pretty much knew what to expect before scheduling the tee time. Regardless, if you play here, this is what you will get: 1.) A very short track; 2.) An overcrowded course; 3.) A surrounding neighborhood that leaves a little bit to be desired. That said, the price cannot be beat...and even if the play is slow you can simply quit after 9 and head back to the clubhouse knowing you still got your money's worth. I encourage people to venture into the city to check out these courses if they haven't before.

Admittedly, this was my least favorite of the "Parks" (Rouge, Palmer, and Chandler) but I still say check it out if you haven't before. Chandler Park is best suited for those just learning the game, and those who don't mind not getting in a full 18 even if the price paid covers it. The fact of the matter is, if you can look past the obvious flaws, and you don't expect too much, you could do a lot worse Chandler Park.

As a side note I'd like to quickly opine on the other Detroit courses I've played. The front 9 on Palmer Park is the WORST 9 holes of golf I've ever played, and the reason I'd never go back. I'm just not sure there's much that can be done with it, given that it runs along Woodward between 7 Mile and McNichols and is crammed within such a tight space. However, the back 9 is actually not half bad, a NICE SURPRISE! If I could book a 9 hole round and be guaranteed I'd play the back 9 only, I'd probably go all the time.

As for Rouge Park, this is THE PLACE to go if you want to golf in Detroit (and I think you should!). There are really only two or three holes that you even see the city, the rest of the time you'd swear you were somewhere "up north". Many of the holes are very unique (the par 3's are particularly fun), without being excessively gimmicky. And, as with the other city courses, the price is right!

The outer edges were not maintained but area is out of play unless you really hit a bad shot. The actual course was in great shape, greens were better than almost every other course I've played this season! Pace of play was a little slow but had we pushed it we probably could have played through the groups ahead of us since we were a twosome but weren't in a hurry. Long hitters should score well here! :-)

chandler park was excellent ! staff was fantatsic and cordial.pace of play fast and no backlog greens was well taken care of. ust a good day at the course.

I hadn't played this course in a couple years and was pleasantly surprised at the improvements that have been made. Maybe its because of all the rain lately but the rough was challenging and the fairways and greens were in good shape.

Great course, friendly staff, get your money's worth. I highly recommend this course and I will continue to give my business to them.

When I got to Chandler Park Golf Course they refused to offer me the twilight price, I want a refund of my $4 charge, I am a loyal customer and your contractual relationship with Chandler does not concern me, we were only able to golf 9 holes, at the very least I want some golf credit with the website. Please e-mail me back regarding this.

The weather was great! The staff was very friendly. The course was well maintained, and I beat my husband. What a great day!

I've literally just started playing within the last two months. I no longer require taking eights, but have yet to determine my handicap as I've only been playing the front nine.

From what I have seen of this course, I have really enjoyed it. They are willing to book tee times within 7 days from the time you call in.

Since this was my first time here, I let my father-in-law do all the talking and they seemed nice enough. We were extremely lucky in that there was no-one else on the course due to weather. Rainy with a chance of T-Storms. But even in the rain, my experience was very enjoyable.

I like the friendly staff and when I have to pair up with others they are pretty friendly.

The course was in great shape. On some holes the fairway was
not very wide. It is not a difficult course which suits my style of play
I will definitely play again
