Old Channel Trail Golf Course - Valley

Played beer for first time back in 1997 with a buddy who worked for Kent county road commission on an outing where alcohol was free flowing and had not played it again until a couple years ago so it had been 25 years and didn’t remember much.

The 3 nines all have different personalities the Woods be built in 1926 with its mounded greens and guarded bunkers and unusual mound’s which almost look like they were bunkers at one time but now ate grass. It looks strange at first but there’s many on most holes.

We like the newest 9 the Valley onnhe east side built in the ‘90s.

It is maintained very well and now that it’s on TeeOff we’re going to be the more this year. Unfortunately it’s an hour drive.

Being right next to Lk Michigan it’s several degrees cooler!

First time playing this course. 4 of us played 18 holes on August 18th. Tee time was 9:15am. Play time was great. Never waited on anyone or had people play up on us. Course was in excellent shape. Played the Woods and Valley. Both interesting in different ways. Nice to have both courses very different from each other. Great value for the money. Girls in the club house were very friendly. As for food: typical northern style club house, so don't expect anything fancy. That being said, they had a nice variety; hotdogs, subs, etc.. Will definitely play again.

Golf course is average. 3 different 9’s. Clubhouse is below average to poor. Driving range and practice holes are excellent and well kept. Course is pretty straight, very little water, and strong Lake Michigan breezes. Course is maintained like you’d expect for $30/18 w/cart. Very Fair price and they are very friendly.

Played recently. The course was.in great shape. Completed the round in 3.5 hours. Highly recommend Old Channel!

This place was fantastic. Beautifully manicured. 3 Fun course designs. Friendly staff. Great value.

Morning started out with a cheery welcome in the Pro Shop. I wish I could remember the young fella's name, very friendly. He pleasantly confirmed our "Hot Deal" tee time. Unlike my experiences at some other courses.where I've used the online deals.

We started on the Meadows with a 7:56 tee time and sailed through the 1st. 9 holes. Fairways were in great shape as were the greens, which were quite consistent.

We hit the Valley for the turn to the back 9. Again, great course conditions. The Valley is more of a challenge, but fair.

We usually play Old Channel 2-4 times per year and truly enjoy the course and staff. Did not disappoint.

Challenging course. Friendly staff. Great value. Keep them on GolfNow

Playing one of the final rounds of the season this weekend and the course was in immaculate condition. Greens were much much more up to speed than most in the area. Beautiful course for fall golfing!
