Fun course for decent price
I have played this course a few times, it’s fun and not to crowded in the mornings. I had 18 holes reserved on GolfNow and paid beforehand but They only allowed me to play nine and they said they credited my card but they have not. No real complaints other than that. The greens were a bit sandy and slow but fairways and tee boxes in good conditions.
Tale of two 9's - TOUGH Greens
Front 9, no holes designed to use driver aside #1 par 5. Back 9, more direct, some fairway pot bunkers. Played on a Sunday and it was PACKED and delayed. Only complaint is that those greens are pretty hard and yield not many birdie tries unless you stick it within 7 feet.
Very nice and friendly staff members. Great course and very well kept.
So fun and fast today!
Played as a single today, greens were great and I flew around that place!!
Disappointed
Over 5 hours to play.... called pro shop, they didn't seem to care... many tees appeared chewed up... could use TLC and water...
Torn up in alot of spots, but nice course to play. Hit and miss if its going to be a slow round, but be prepared for a slow one.
1st-Time & Hoped For Better
Course we’ll maintained with greens running true. They pack the tee-times so be prepared for a slow round and don’t expect too much from the course rangers who are clearly visible, but fail to move things along. When tee-boxes have 2-3 tee-times backed up you know you’re in for a slow one!
Very good
Pin positions felt much more like a Sunday tournament trying to crush us. Slowed play a little otherwise the course was great.

This place is trash in every aspect. Rude desk lady, snail pace of play on a Monday morning I played 8 holes and just walked off because it took 3 hours. Do better Rackham.
Old school Muni
This course just has something special about it. I love the old school Art Deco clubhouse/pro shop. The greens were fast, course was well maintained and I’m looking forward to playing the third and final Detroit municipal course soon!
The greenest course I've seen in months
The course has been kept up during this extended hot and dry stretch. There were very few beat up areas and the greens were great.
Everything they had control over was very good to great.
But it is a a little bit on the expensive side.
$47 to ride, $40 to walk.
I hadn't played there in almost 10 years and it seems to have improved. I'll return gladly.
