course layout ridiculous

not a fan when the only greens you can see are on the par 3s. too many blund tee shots.. too many sidehill lies from middle of fairway. roo many trees. should have left tuus as a forest because it fails as a golf course.

Nice course, excellent value!

This is my second time playing Whispering pines. The course is in great shape and an incredible value at $20 for 18 holes with a cart. There is a nice combination of very challenging and moderately challenging holes.

Good Course For The $$$

Living in the area I've been wanting to play this course for some time. The card says it plays 6,372 from the blues which is pretty accurate. I played as a single which is why the pace was a bit slower, but the weather was perfect so I didn't mind. The course was in good shape, just some golfers who don't know how to fix their ball marks on the green. I would say this is a perfect tune-up if you're going up north, especially the back 9. I could & will play there again.

Splendid day golfing with friends at this course. Nice views and well groomed fairways and greens. Maybe a little challenging for beginners.

It's been years

I don't know why we haven't played here in years but we will be back soon. The course was in great shape and the pace of play excellent. We had to let a twosome go by just so we could enjoy the day. I run a golf league and I just might set up our outing here.

Don't overlook this course.

The yardage says the course is short but plays much longer. Very strategic tight golf course. Definitely not for someone who sprays the ball everywhere. If you do bring a lot of golf balls. The scenery of this deep wooded golf course is fantastic.

Greens in terrible shape

great course design, but greens were in bad shape. Some spots had sitting water. Overall wouldn't repeat unless greens got better.

Difficult track for weekend golfers

Front nine moderate in difficulty, enjoyable in scenery and condition then the back nine bites you, with severe up,down and side hill lies not to mention the swamp and water carries. Have fun. Wonderful clubhouse,food and staff.

Quick round on a Friday afternoon!

Course was in good shape. The greens were a little slow but consistent. Two groups ahead of me let me play through as a single at the turn, which was a nice gesture.

Whispering Pines - Great course

First time playing Whispering Pines and it's definitely a great find! The course is set out nicely through a suburban setting but you don't really notice because of the beautiful tree lined fairways. The fairways are fair off the tee but you need to hit it accurately because the fairways are also very sloping and rolling. The greens also have more break than you see especially #15 & #18. Had my best round ever shooting 79! Definitely will be back, great course!

Fun course if you have some time

Nice challenging course. Greens were in rough shape today.

The pace of play was excruciating. Took almost 6 hours to play 18.

Fun Course, Excellent Condition

This course is in excellent condition. It has a little "Up North Michigan" feel with huge pine trees lining the fairways, especially on the back 9. Very impressed with the quality of greens and fairways.

I would play here again and would absolutely recommend it to others.
