Never coming back

The pace of play was ridiculous. Waited 20 minutes for 3 holes before I just left. I booked a tee time prior to going and they obvious over booked. This is my third time playing the course. They always overbook but this was out of hand. I am never coming back. The guys in front of us were a group of 6 who knew the owners.. meaning the owners knew they were playing with 6. But honestly that didn’t matter because they were waiting before every hole anyway

Course looked great

Ranger needs to step up his game pace of play was very slow. No one was out spending up players. Was waiting at the tee box fo average of 5 to 7min before we could tee off this was consistent for the whole round even worse on the back nine

Seniors Haven

The course was in nice shape for being so early in the year. I didn't know there were so many seniors / retirees. The pace of play was very slow. The staff is very friendly. But, don't order ice water to go they charge $0.50 per cup

Always a great time.

I have played here for years. Always love coming back. It was my first round of the year and was surprised to see the greens rolling already. It was wet in a couple spots but like always very enjoyable.

nice course

played marsh oaks. green speeds are consistant and rebound well after being beat up by ball marks. there are a couple holes that you have to play for accuracy not length. only problem i have is when you reach the par 5 9th hole there is a gun shooting range right behind a prison. its hard to putt when someone is blasting a shotgun a 100 yards away. the sea gulls from the nearby waste dump brought me good luck on the par 3 11th my partner chipped in for birdie and i made a 10 footer for birdie. overall course is great and you cant control what is built around your course. ill be back!

Nice Fall round

It wasn't busy, mostly twosomes out in front of us.

Unfortunately, someone ahead of us thinks four hours is still the norm for two.

Surprisingly, plenty of staff around, even a pretty cart girl.

Greens were excellent. Course was in good shape.

Consistent Expectations

No surprises here. It is in consistently good condition and for this time of year, it is manicured, green and leaves on the ground are a minimum! The staff is very friendly. I'll definitely play there again.

Friendly

Course was wet, rained most of the time we played and the ranger came out just to ask us to stay off the fairways when possible. We did and enjoyed it despite the weather.

No Surprises

Since it is Autumn, the leaves are falling. But, this course kept the course pretty leaf free and the grass was nice and green. Traps were nicely groomed too. Things were going very smooth finishing the front in 1 1/2 hours. We let the twosome behind us play through at the 10th. At the 16th. a foursome ahead of us began to slow things up. When the next twosome caught up to us they accused us of jumping in front of them and called the club house to complain about us. When the ranger approached us the twosome behind us that complained were two holes behind!! Look out for jerks like them!!

First Time Playing

Hidden Gem in Macomb County

Way better than expected. Very well manicured course. Challenging, but not frustrating. We made very good time on holes 1-10, and then got behind the biggest joke of a league I've ever seen. 5 guys, I watched them tee off on 8 holes - not once did one drive over 150 yards. Was an absolutely grueling pace of play waiting on these jokers - wish the rangers were out and enforcing.

Other than that league - course was fantastic. I'll definitely be back.

Great Course, Horrible bartenders

The golf course was great, had a good layout and some difficult holes with all the hazards. But we started out in the club house, accidentally interrupting the two servers from there conversation between the two. I was going to order a couple beers and a bag of ice. She turns to me and in the snappiest voice imaginable, she says we don't serve bags of ice. I'm sorry but every golf course has a bag for your golf cart, but oh well, I would have got over it but they treated us like dirt. Managers need to retrain their staff on customer service. Very rude but I enjoyed the golf.

Old style parkland course

A fun course to play, with nice variety. Bunkers a little low on sand, but there aren't many. A few bare spots in very shady areas. Right on a freeway exit. 5 par 3's, 4 par 5's.
