Nice course

The course is well maintained. Staff was friendly. There is construction around the sides of the course making it a bit muddy but the course itself was dry.

First Time @ Crown

Made a teetime online prior to vakay, but arrived an hour early because we didn't know how long it would take us. "Pro" said if we'd hurry we could get out ahead of regular Sunday morning group of 16 players. We did & played the front in 1.5 hours! Course is beautiful, winding through the hills & woods. Everything was in great shape: greens, fairways, boxes, bunkers. Since we're from Missouri we were amazed that there were no cart paths & you can't even tell where carts have driven! When we got to 10 a 3-some had just teed off. We couldn't figure out why since there hadn't been anyone in front of us. They were very slow & wouldn't let us go thru. It was a beautiful day & we were having fun so we didn't press the issue. Finally when we got to #17 tee the ladies in the group were still teeing off & we could see that there were no golfers on 17 (par 5) or 18! The "gentleman" then hit his 2nd shot next to the ladies box. He duffed it & proceeded to drop another ball. I couldn't help myself & yelled "That's okay, there's no one waiting!" He then went into a cuss word laced tirade. He then hit his mulligan worse than the original shot & then used more cuss words toward us. We found out after the round that he was a "member" & had just "jumped" on #10.

Where have all the trees gone?

I can’t believe the three most beautiful holes have been decimated by what I assume is more condos.

Great course near town

The Crown offers a wide variety of holes and some fantastic elevation changes. The greens are a pleasure to putt on and the course offers a good amount of challenge for experienced players. The back 9 is a lot of fun (it brings you to the top of some hills and has a lot of up and down). The views are spectacular as well. Add this track to your next Traverse City golf trip- it's a gem that sometimes gets overlooked!

Worthwhile corse

The greens and fairways are very nice, the rough needs to to fertilized and watered as it was brown and hard. Most of the holes the fairways are wide and leave you in great shape for the next shot. Plenty of chalange even for the big bombers, I'll be back.

Good value and great burgers

The course was much nicer than we expected based on the price. The fairways were in good condition. They had 150 stakes and other yardage markers which were helpful. We were playing from the whites and reds and could have used some help finding them sometimes.

We ate at the restaurant after we played and the burgers were awesome.

Back nine is tough!

What a pleasant surprise! This is a great place to play golf. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The course was really nice, with the back being decidedly tougher than the front. I've already recommended it to my friends.

Perfect course for my wife and I.

We like to play a scramble when we play because my wife really likes to only play nine holes and I always want to play eighteen but if we scramble she will play eighteen. Very nice and well maintained course. We played from the white and red tee boxes. The front nine is a little easier than the back nine. Also, the greens on the back nine are much more difficult with lots of undulations, slope, etc. We three putted three of the back nine holes after getting on the green in regulation. Oh well, that's golf. The staff are very accommodating and wanting to make sure you have a good experience. Will play this course again the next time we are in the area.
