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.

Best municipal
I’ve played here often through the years and was a member back in my 20’s.
Still to this day probably the best municipal course I have ever played.
Great layout with no quirky holes. Wide variety of tees to make it challenging. Greens were better this year so far and we’re fast.
Definitely worth the money!
Thank you for your review! We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed playing at our course throughout the years and that you find the layout and variety of tees challenging. We appreciate your feedback and hope to continue providing a great golfing experience for you.
Did not fell welcome
I was told that they paired groups into foursomes, however that was not the case. Were were a 3 some that was moving along at a great pace finished in a little over 4 hours. The ranger harassed us the entire back nine because they had 3 twosomes behind us. Was visiting from Georgia and was looking forward to playing a local course. Id recommend Gull Lake courses to any visitors in that area.

Pace of play
We had a foursome in front of us who were very slow but because we didn’t have a timetable we just chose to wait it out. Not courses fault by any means though we never saw a Marshall who was looking for such issues. Really enjoyed the course. Excellent condition
Thank you for your review! We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the slower group ahead of you, but we're glad to hear that you enjoyed the course and found it to be in excellent condition. We appreciate your understanding, and we'll take your feedback into consideration to ensure a smoother experience for all our golfers. We hope to see you again soon!
Great track
The course is not overly long, but it is tricky. Rough is not where you want to be, greens are sneaky fast with a good amount of slope. Lots of doglegs, which make placement off the tee a premium. Can not wait to play this course again.
Thank you for sharing your review! We appreciate your feedback. We understand that our course can be challenging with its tricky layout and sneaky-fast greens. The doglegs add an extra element of strategy, making tee shot placement crucial. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience despite the difficulty and are looking forward to having you play our course again. We value your support and can't wait to welcome you back!
Bigger then you think
When you see the some of the holes from the street they seem short and narrow but when you’re on the tee boxes you’ll see it’s quite the opposite
The course is convenient.
Pretty overall good course. Location is nice. Out of bounds here is over a fence, other people's property.
Fun course near the city
The course was pretty well maintained, given that it had rained. The course had some work being done on it, which resulted in cables exposed near the greens. Otherwise, everything was pretty fun for a novice golfer.

Not from the area. We decided to do a quick 18 in the morning. Great course. If I'm back in the area again, I'll have to play it.

One of the best values in Western Michigan
Nice layout, great staff and one of the most well stocked pro shops you’ll find anywhere.

Great course, tee times too close together, rude staff
The course was in great shape, but the tee times were too close together considering most of the groups are elderly. Also the course ranger was very rude. I joined up with the single behind me and he stopped us as i was just about to tee off to ask why we had separate carts and then smugly drove off.
Very Nice Course
I enjoyed playing the front 9 holes. The course was in great condition. The greens were in very good condition and bunkers have a good quality of light beach sand. I would highly recommend this course to anyone whose has not golfed it yet.
Great Value, nice layout and a very friendly staff!
Fun course to play with some challenging holes. Well maintained and a great value. If you haven’t played it, give Milham Park a try. You won’t be disappointed.
