About Gull Lake View Golf Resort

Since the 1960s, the Scott family has transformed 2,000 acres in southwest Michigan into one of America's largest golf resort communities. Situated in the appropriately named Augusta, Michigan, near Kalamazoo and Battle Creek, Gull Lake View Golf Resort has become synonymous with affordable packages where golfers stay in comfortable villas to enjoy six different courses, all from different eras. The East and West courses were built in the mid-1960s and mid-1970s, with the two Stonehedge courses added later in 1989 and 1994. The family bought the Bedford Valley, a classic course known for hosting tournaments, in 1988 and then put the feather in the cap, debuting the linksy Stoatin Brae by Renaissance Golf Design in 2017. Those who fall in love with the experience can buy real estate in one of several neighborhoods.

What happened to Gull Lake View?

Wow! It’s the end of May and there are still top dressing holes on the greens? I’ve always liked GLV be disappointed in fairways and greens. Not sure I’d go back at any price.

Will play it again.

We played as a twosome on a Saturday morning with tee time at 8:42 AM. We started right on time and had a great time playing the front nine. The course condition was great despite the rain that had passed through an hour earlier. As expected after the rain it was carts on paths only or when necessary on the rough. We completed the front nine in just under 2 hours.

We took a short break and got a couple of sandwiches to go from the restaurant.

When we got to the 10th tee a foursome had just teed off so we had to wait for them to hit 2nd shot. From that point forward we had to wait on every hole. There was at least one complete hole open in front of the foursome but they never considered letting us play through. We ended up taking just over 3 hours to play the back nine.

Overall we had a great time and look forward to playing again, hopefully on a weekday.

Always a good experience.

I really enjoy Bedford Valley. Fun and challenging layout, very friendly staff, nice pro shop, and they’re often making nice improvements. They were doing some landscaping and tree work when we played, but you can always count on them to make it beautiful when finished.

After playing a few southern courses recently, it felt good to be back on the Michigan turf.

Highly recommend.

Course torn up. Tree stumps everywhere, sticks everywhere

Had major tree removals, counted about 40 stumps on two holes. Greens aerated in spring also. This course should be closed until it is platable. Turf in horrible condition. This is a total mess.

One of SW Michigan's finest public courses already.

Renaissance design has built a gem into some of the best land in the Kalamazoo area. The back 9 is spectacularly laid out.

Excellent Course

First time playing nice course, somewhat narrow fairway that makes the course a challenge. I will play this course again.

Gull Lake's best course.

If you like tree lined scenic courses that are challenging and fun, then this is one of Michigans best. Played it during fall color change, so beautiful. And course was in great shape.

Another great course from Gull Lake

Front 9 is more open and easier. But then the back 9 is tighter, tougher- more like Stonehedge South. Great condition, challenging and fun. Fall colors were terrific.

Pace of play Ridiculous

I have played this course many times over the last 15 years. I will never play on a weekend again. I was waiting 8-10 minutes per shot. It drained all the rhythm and pleasure out of the round. I stopped after 9 because despite an extreme level of patience I couldn’t take it any more. So I went inside to get a hotdog after discontinuing play and the one food worker had a line of 10 people in front of me so I gave upon this and left. This represents incredibly bad management of the course. Course conditions were great for this time of year.

Awesome course

We played quite late in the season after a couple of cancellations due to the weather man; however, the day was nice with a light sweater and the sun came out to make it perfect.

The course is in excellent shape, especially for this time of the season.

We will be returning here again ASAP.

A quaint Michigan gem

I played here Mid July and loved it. It is the quietest course I have ever played. Extremely thick forest all around the course. Really incredible track, in my opinion. Great conditions, nice tees and firm greens. The clubhouse was very nice and the staff was friendly. Nice golf carts and they had nice bathrooms out on the course, which was a definite boost to the value. Great holes and a challenging course. My friend and I both loved it. If you are errant, you will lose a lot of balls. Pace of play was nice, everyone moved along well. The hole design really helps move play along. There were not any bottle necks on the course that I ran into. Definitely give this track a try if you are in town, you won't be disappointed. A real treat for locals, as well as tourists,

Pace of play

This is a really nice course, with some really nice length par 4s that if you find the fairway, you can have a birdie chance. However, the hardest hole on the course is a long par 3 with a deep green. The back side has more uphill holes starting on 11, a rather short par 3, but don't short yourself, and a long par 4 that plays longer than scorecard uphill. The home hole also is the same as it is a long, uphill par 5. The major problem we had was on the day we played there we took a later am tee time, and there was a foursome of women who played every shot, and to be honest, they should have picked up at "double par". Please control the pace of play when it comes to this!!
