Willow Metropark Golf Course

I played here years ago as a teen with my father. Was always a good value. Decided to go back to check it out. It’s now $26 ish for $18 with cart. But can find $15 a round here on golf now. It’s perfect for juniors/seniors/ladies. Fun for the average golfer. Overall short course, anyone could play from the blues honestly doesn’t add much to the round. A lot of 350-450yd par 4’s. Can get backed up on back to back to back short par 4’s and a par 3 in between. If you’re a 90 avg u shoot 85 here.

Course was in good shape. It has a good layout and is player friendly.

Course in great condition , good pace of play . Good value for golf .

Pace of play was good. Course was pretty basic. Some challenging greens. Slopes on greens and pretty small compared to other courses.

Played here for the first time in a few years. Was reluctant to try it based on past issues with drainage on the course and the very wet spring we have had. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the fine conditioning of this course. It is apparent that they have worked hard to improve the conditions and fix some of the problems with water that were hindering this course previously. Not quite perfect yet, but this course has a really fun layout and we were reminded why we used to play here frequently. Will put it back on the list to play again.

With all the rain we've had in Michigan this spring, Willow Metroparks Golf Course was in great condition. There were four holes that were cart path only, and it was understandably so. The ball washes all had soapy water for cleaning. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would go back there anytime, and am planning a golf outing there in August.

The course was in real good shape. Played long do to recent rain. Greens were healthy but a little slow. Lots of undulations. I was able to be aggressive and made a lot of putts. I only remember one green with some bare spots. Course has a lot of bunkers and they were well maintained.

Enjoyed the round.

Played Willow today for the first time in a few years. I (we) could not be more disappointed. This course is in major decline! The greens are bumpy and severely damaged making putting a “hit and hope” affair. Grass on the fairways and tee boxes are covered with weeds. Many areas show turf damage, patches of dirt, etc. The pace of play was ridiculously slow. We were informed by staff that new metro park management has decided to remove all rangers/player assistants leaving course etiquette up for grabs! It’s shameful to show such disregard and disrespect for the game and for players, especially at prime time on a sunny Saturday in August! And charging full price for a 5+ hour round for a threesome! I (we) will not return and advise others to do the same until they make drastic improvements to this course.

This course has all you need to sharpen your skills as a golfer. Length and contour. Nice course with happy people.
