Milham Park Municipal Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Situated on the southern edge of Kalamazoo, Milham Park Golf Club borders its namesake park. This municipal course is one of the best in the city, boasting some of the best conditions of any of the area's golf courses. Originally opened as a nine-hole course in 1931, the second nine was added as a project under the Works Project Administration in 1935. The course has a traditional layout that is seemingly short by modern standards at 6,630 yards from the back tees. Don't let the yardage fool you, Milham Park offers many holes with good length. The layout is heavily bunkered and there are tall trees along the fairways. Water is nowhere to be found except for a mild hazard that edges along the fourth hole.

Slow golf
Played here a number of times, and I must say the course condition has digressed. One fairway was taller than the rough. Pace of play was very slow. While $51 is not overly expensive, for today it was not with it.
Milham park
Great old style course layout. Greens in good shape
Fairways were just aerated and had too much watering. Balls plugged and no roll.lots of mud balls.
Afternoon golf
Thought I play golf as Michigan was losing. Pace of play good,. Course had some spotty fairways. Good round overall, though sprinklers were on for about 4 holes. Second time I played here and the sprinklers impacted play. It was 2:30 in the afternoon . Really?
Course in Shambles
The course is tore up. They aerated the grounds and it is a mud and dirt mess. Literally hitting from piles of dirt on the fairway. So disappointing. I wish they told us before we went out.
We apologize for the condition of the course and the inconvenience it caused. Your feedback is valuable, and we'll work on improving communication regarding course maintenance to enhance your experience.
Course management
The Staff let a group of 6 cut in front of a single on the 10th hole. Most courses don’t even allow 3 carts to play together let alone let them jump in front of a single on the 10th.
Great Track
Played this course as a kid (I'm 62 years old) & it's STILL GREAT TODAY! ⛳ 😎
Wow, that’s awesome to hear! We love that you’ve been playing here since you were a kid and still think it’s great today. Thanks for sticking with us all these years. Can’t wait to see you out on the course again soon!
Golf in the morning
Have played here before. Was the first one off in the early morning. Obviously pace of play was good. Fairways are spotty in some areas. Sprinklers were still on during the 1st nine holes. Some shots were impacted by the sprinklers. If they are going tio let you play early, this cannot occur. I could not hit some shots without getting wet. overall an ok round.
Thanks for the feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the early pace, but we apologize for the sprinklers. We'll address this to prevent it from happening again. Hope to see you back for a better round soon!
Golf at Milham
Have played here before. It's convenient and course is good. Too many golfers on the course. Play can be slow. They let people go off the back nine sometimes which can impact players making the turn.
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you find the course convenient, and we'll work on managing the flow of golfers to improve the pace of play.
Wonderful course in Portage
Great conditions, a bit challenging, great weather made for the best day out
On Par with the best
Top tier municipal course. Currently some irrigation work as well as storm repair going on. Besides that the course is in excellent condition. Clubhouse and staff are great.
Milham Park GC - Storm Damaged
Played this course approx. A month after a mild tornado went through the area. Trees down on almost every hole with tree crews cutting, chipping and hauling the debris. The course is a mess, other than the greens. Wait a while before playing this course
