Rating 71.0

Lake Erie Metropark in Brownstown sits along the shoreline of its namesake lake. The location is a popular bird-watching spot with more than 300 species recorded. Golfers might catch a glimpse of a bald eagle and broad-wing hawk sightings are almost definite since the area is one of the best hawk-watching sites in North America. The golf course sprawls across gently rolling terrain and is routed through natural wetlands and forests. Towering trees line the fairways and water comes into play on a few holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. The golf course is a manageable 6,472 yards from the back tees. Lake Erie Metropark's challenges are mild enough for high handicappers but there are still some interesting holes that will keep the avid golfer entertained.

One of my favorite courses

Love playing this course! Played about ten times this summer and enjoyed each round. The greens and fairways are well kept and you will see an occasional deer, eagle and other critters. The only downside at this course is that it is too packed and play gets behind just about each time we played.

Great experience and quick trip

Three of us made the two hour drive from Cleveland to Wayne Co, Michigan. We were not disappointed at all. The course was in excellent shape save for maybe a bunker or two. Greens were fabulous. Tee boxes were also in great condition. Staff was very friendly.

Course set up pretty straight on.

Course was great for beginning play.

Not so much for advanced or better play. Fairways very wet.

Rained 12 hours before so possibly the issue but draining wasnt seeming to work towards edges of fairways. All in all good course

Short and playable

I'm the "Golfing Trucker" and golf whenever I'm on a layover. Lake Erie is the 1st Michigan course I've played and from 1st to last tee this is as good as it gets. Ball placement and shaping is a must. Holes 11-12 is the challenge but 16-18 was really my best ones.

Front 9 were really warmups for the back 9... Sounds biased but the course layout just plays that way.

Staff was great and a perfect place for a tournament.

Great Course, Great Value

All of the metropark courses are great and lake erie is no exception! We played for $26 and had a great time! Course was in great shape, greens and fairways were pristine and pace of play was smooth and fast. I would highly recommend this course it’s open for average golfers but long enough to be challenging for golfers whom are pretty skilled.

My favorite local course.

Lake Erie Golf Course is in a great, quiet and peaceful location, full of wildlife. The course is usually very well maintained, but this season has started out super wet, so it is a little rough this spring. This is very flat course, carved out of what is basically a forest. It plays pretty easy, but hit your shots straight or you will lose a lot of balls. The fairways are tree lined with heavy grass borders, and there are only a couple of holes where parallel fairways come near to each other(lots of woods all around). The clubhouse doesn't offer much more than hot dogs, sandwiches and reasonably priced cans of beer, but what more do you really need? There is a bar with a good menu, right down the street for after your round.
