Condition is bad
The course condition absolutely does not justify the increase in the cost of play
Great Value
I love to play Emerald Vale it’s such a well designed course; fun, yet challenging, rewarding, and punishing. I appreciate that even of the tips, this course makes you think on the tee. It’s not just a “grab your driver” course.
Played many times, will continue to. Actually don’t listen to me. Don’t come, it smells funny!

Mid summer round
Overall good and enjoyable day of Golf. Some slow golfers that were playing a pga tournament in their heads. Don’t know why they do this.
For the most part greens were in good shape with some bad spots on a few of them. 85% of fairways were in good shape the others had rough spots that could use some fixing reseeding. They’ve made improvements in the sand traps but coyuse sand with smaller and fewer rocks.
The T boxes were pretty bad and really need to be worked on/ upgraded. Still an enjoyable day on the course.
Needs watering; better maintenance
Play this course at least once a year; and was disappointed with the course. The tee boxes had no watering, and were in poor shape; several greens had really bad spots; and the fairways were not receiving the needed amount of watering. Normally this is a soggy course, but not right now.
Hidden gem
Great spot in northern Michigan, if it were 20 miles north or 20 miles south it could command another $30 per round! Great value, and great pace of play for the holiday weekend!
Another top notch hidden gem
One of my absolute favorites! Scorable, in great condition with excellent up north charm
Great course
The course was great! Our only issue was that we booked on golf now and chose their hot deal. We were directly behind a golf outing. It took almost 3 hours to golf the first nine. I would recommend checking directly with the golf course to see why a specific tee time is featured as a hot deal. The pace of play on the second nine was good as the golf outing had concluded.
Best value around
Love bringing my kids here. Very kid friendly, and they are very accommodating.
Very Nice Course
Course is in decent shape for the weather that we've had so far this year. The greens were on the slow side and needed some work. Fairways were ok to good.
Little known gem
I live coming to Emerald Vale. Such a fun layout. They’re having a few issues on some greens, but I look past that thanks to the overall neatness and standard through the rest of the course.
only thing bad today was the rain
My wife and I played today and had a very enjoyable time until we were chased off the course by lighting. Snack bar had limited menu but my burger and my wifes chicken salad were good. Very friendly staff golf and snack bar. we will be be yet this year
Nice course. Will return
