No fresh water on the course.

It would of been nice to either have fresh water on the course or a bev cart making the rounds since it was 93 out.

Course a mess! Hackers dream!

My golf league partner and I went to play here after growing up in the area and not playing here in years and found that it has serious lack of maintenance! Gave us a slip for the starter and they don't even have one! Group in front of us snuck their 4 year old in the cart with them and he was the best golfer of the 3! Most greens were so slow it will ruin your putting game. then would have hole placements on others where you could putt 10 times and not stop the ball! The area had bad weather 8 days prior and there were numerous fallen tree's that were STILL over cart paths, branches and leaves laying EVERYWHERE to the point it was difficult finding balls in the fairways! The "Billy Casper Group" is running this for the Twsp of Plymouth and Billy Casper has been deceased for 2 years! This is a hackers dream! If you want to golf with people that will shoot 110 this is for you. The sad part is that it has ENORMOUS POTENTIAL! Has the feel that it will be a subdivision soon!

Pace of Play Problem. No starter.

No starter on the course. Waited 30 minutes beyond our tee time to tee off. Horrible pace of play, Quit after 5 holes.

Disapointed

Very slow play. One reason was the course had not cleared fallen leaves in a few days. Tee boxes were in sad condition. Overall course condition was poor.

This week's golf trip to Hilltop

3 of us played Hilltop for the first time. Playing a new course is usually difficult. We found Hilltop to very challenging. We talked with golfers on the course, and they stated you have to play it many times to manage your game there. We enjoyed it very much, and will be back!!

No supervision

The price was good and the first 9 we played in just over 1 hour and 30 minutes.
We made the turn to discover that we were in line behind people that were just playing 9 holes.
We then played holes 10, 11 and 12 in an hour and left.
They definately need some organization.

Short but challenging/fair

Course is short but undulating which makes shotmaking important. Greens are good, have to keep shots below pin.
Beautiful scenery. Good mix of woods, bunkers, not a lot of water hazards. Staff extremely friendly.

Can't beat the price

I have played this course many times in the past and today I played 18 holes for $10. There are many reviews on here about pace of play and I did notice a lot of singles and twosomes. There is not a starter to tell people to pair up people have to do that on their own which makes the pace of play go a lot better. I was a single and the pairing up with a threesome and we finished in under four hours which was great. The greens are wonderful fast and tricky fairways are tight and the tees could use a lot of work they are not level and need to be moved around when there are too many divots.

Not what I remember

I used to play this course all the time when I lived in Michigan, and it was a GREAT course to play for the value. I was visiting family and friends, and decided to get an early morning round in, but I see that things have changed A LOT since I've been gone. There were weeds in the fairway (they didn't get in the way of my shots since I was hitting from the rough), dirt patches in the fairway, and they were changing the hole position while we were playing. I don't know if they have changed their grounds crew, but I hope they correct these problems.

Hilltop

I course was in decent condition but a large drainage problem, most of the cart paths were under water and there were quite a few "ponds" in the fairways. The greens were dry and in great condition, very challenging. The pace of play was horrendous, it took 5.5 hrs! There was no starter and a line at the first tee so we took it upon ourselves to start at tee 10 and play the back 9 first. We finished in 1 hr 50 mins. When we went to play the front nine the line was even longer, we waited almost 40 minutes to tee off and waited to shoot on the fairways and had another 10 minute wait on the next tee. Those nine holes took almost 4 hrs! There should be some starting at 1 and some starting at 10! Not to mention people hitting into you (my buddy got hit on hole 9 from a shot on hole 8). No ranger caused a terrible pace and the group in front of us had a guy so fat that they drove on the tee box and the greens so he didn't have to walk far, just ridiculous. I would not be going back of the manager hadn't given us a free 18 holes. Hopefully when we go back the experience is much better.

Whoa Buddy.

It's beautiful. Really nice looking but the facilities aren't kept up to the standards of the area. The lawn mowers were out in the middle of the day, and distracting me from a few swings.

Pace of Play is Terrible!

Our tee time was 9:15 AM...didn't get off 1st tee until 9:50! Took an hour to get to 4th tee. A few golfers asked if they could start from the 10th but were turned down. It took 6 painful hrs to golf 18! This is happened to us before and we decided to chance it again but we will not be back! Then we tried to post our scores and they are delinquent in their GAM membership so we were not able to. Very disapppointed, AGAIN!!!

tough greens

Play was slow due to early dew which delayed start times. Also had group ahead playing from the blue tees who couldn't hit it 200 yards. Cigars were a nice touch though. Makes you look like a golfer. Hit from Reds next time.
