Great!
Overall one of the better courses in southeast michigan.
This course is in great shape.
The golf course has a nice layout. The fairways were green and trim. Easy to play off of. The greens had a nice pace. Very challenging. You had to play position to have a chance at the green. I especially liked the graphics at each tee.
Good value
The course was in excellent condition. One of the best values Downriver.
Quirky, Tight Course
This was my first time playing Willow in almost 3 years and the course was in very good condition. Greens were in very good shape just a little on the slow side, fairways were well mantained and were actually being watered midday on some holes. Bunkers were also well maintained with plenty of sand.
The course itself features many Par 4's that require less then driver off the tee for longer hitters as there's many doglegs that make you play 200-250 off the tee and no longer. It's a fun course to play for the value and I would reccomend it.
Fun and Relaxed Course
The course was well kept and the holes were varied enough to keep it interesting. No issues with the staff, and pace of play was excellent.
VerynNice course
Willow Metro park is a very nice course. The course was damp at 0700 in the morning, but expected. The greens were not cut, which I wished they were, because of the amount of water still on the greens when we putted. There are several dog legs that were enjoyable. The condition of the greens, fairways, and tee boxes were very good. Some of the holes for my wife were a little too long, even from the red tees. We will play this course again. The wife was somewhat bothered by the constant jets taking off from Detroit Metro, but got use to it after a while.
good course
Course is in good shape. The bunkers need to be taken care of better, more like hard pan.
Beautiful shape
The course was in awsome shape had a beautiful morning with deer running around on the course. I live 5 minutes from this course and I was was very pleased with everything a metro parks course had to offer . The greens were in excellent shape which really surprised me after the bad winter. It was a great day with my son on a really nice course.
Wonderful Layout!
Willow has some hills which add character to the course. It was in good shape considering that it had rained the night before. The greens were in good shape but did not seem to have the same speed from green to green. The bunkers did not have good sand. The character of the layout is an attraction you don't find on many courses in this area. We played the second nine behind a foursome that was very slow with no courtesy to wave us through. A ranger would have been helpful. Overall we enjoyed the round.
willow metro
One of my favorite metroparks. Course was in great shape.
Golf for Fun
Dog Leg holes are tricky. My first time on the course. Fairly long from the white tees if your not long off the tee. If you plan your shots, water is not a problem. Again first time players without knowledge of the course can find trouble. Enjoyable to play, low scores for straight hitters.
slow
Left after 5 1/2 hours, only 13 holes finished. Had rained night before slowest greens I've seen all season. Had not been cut for at least 3 days, they looked like carpet. It was a challenging course from off the tee. Even the suggested areas for the approach shots were tight. Trees overhang and block, the help booklet could be updated or gotten rid of.
Good Value
Played in about 2 1/2 hours....I was a single and played through numerous groups who were all more than happy to let me shoot on through. Turkey Sandwich at the turn was excellent also.

Very nice course good shape and shot making course
Greens are very fair
Must play
Willow Park~Not Bad
Overall, not bad. Some clumping grass on a few fairways, but not an issue.
Will play again!
Over a dozen dog legs. very enjoyable to play. Sand traps are real. Traps are several feet high.
Water is not a real problem here. Bunkers are real but not many of them. If you hit straight it is a easy course.If you like dog legs then this is your course.
Nasty
My wife a above average female golfer had no chance of getting on par 4s in 2 or the par 5s in 3.
The rough was to long could not find are balls. The fairways were 2' high in spots. Not worth the price if it was $ 10.00 No reason for the course to be in that shape. I worked on that course. I don't know what happened to it. Been cutting greens and working on
golf courses for 30 years. It wasn't my best experience. Thanks Stan
Amazing
Very challenging but not too difficult. Lots of bunkers and narrow fairways. Fun to play
