Olde Mill Golf Course

About
Olde Mill Golf Club in Schoolcraft opened in 1958. The traditional layout is the perfect example of classic Midwestern golf. The layout winds along Flowerfield Creek, which comes into play throughout. The front nine has six water holes and there are two more on the back, but water isn't the only challenge you'll run into. The challenging golf course can feel much longer than the 6,180-yard length that's listed on the scorecard. The front nine is more open, but also subject to the wind, and the back nine gets much tighter with most of the holes framed by dense woodlands. There are numerous sand traps strategically placed throughout. In addition to the golf course, Olde Mill also has a driving range and practice green available that are great for warming up.

Ok golf
Good fall weather for golf. Pace of play was so so today on the front nine. No ranger does not help, as there was one single play walking and he took it upon himself to pass multiple groups and go to the next hole. He was an awful golfer.. Actually a danger to anyone on the course. He should still to checkers.
Fast golf
Played course again as there are not many golfers out there now. Pace was good, and course condition was average. Greens in good shape, Price was right as well.
Sunny Golf
Played alone and round to just over 2 hours. Good course to play to work on your game. Some spotty fairways, but overall good.
Slow
Staff is great, for a cheaper course everything else is great! Do not expect to get a fast 18 holes of golf in. Took 6 hours today to play 18. No rangers out there pushing people along to help the pace of play either.
Rainy day golf
So so round of golf with a pay. Rained lightly most of the round. Pace of place just ok, though back nine was better. Batter than sitting around in the house.
Fore
Decent round of golf on a nice day. Average course, though pace of play good.
Lazy afternoon golf
Not a bad round of golf on an average course. Pace was pretty good, and course was ok. The price was right.
Ho Hum
Average round of golf on ab=n average course. Good place to work on your game if you are alone.
Afternoon golf
Good fast round. Not many people on the course. Course condition has improved.
Its ok
For the price - it is hard to dislike. Have the proper expectations and you will have a good time. It is a good track to work on your game. I like the electric golf carts tho
The same
I do not know why I keep playing this course. Course is in sad shape, rough never gets mowed, and pace of play is awful.. There was a five some on one hole, and no ranger. Good course to play if you want to work on your game, but really not a place to enjoy a round of golf.
Afternoon golf
Pace of play very slow on front nine. Too many golfers that don't hit the ball far and take a lot of time. Course was in ok condition, as rough looked like it had not been cut in weeks, and fairways were spotty. For the price I guess you can't expect much better. Good place to go if you want to work on your game for a reasonable price, otherwise below average.
Tons of potential
Challenging layout for a rural track, course conditions not great but playable, A lot of potential for the new owners. Enjoyed the round and will return
