Outstanding!!

If you are ever in the St.joseph area of Michigan put this course on your must do list. Top shelf from the time you arrive till you drive away.Interesting that mid may fairways still had aeration holes that really never caused an issue since they were starting to heal.Greens rolled fast and true.Dont think there is a flat green on this course..so try and note that on the warm up putting green.Beautul course..nice manicured bunkers made for an enjoyable 4 hours for me and my wife.If you can get on for under 80.00 here..do it..you will not regret it.This is a well thought out design that is a pleasure to play.First time playing but hope to make another 3 hour drive sooner than later.This to test my skills now that I have some familiarity with a few holes that sight lines were a little unclear.

Great high end track

Course is still recovering from fall Aerating especially the fairways. The greens were rolling well and tee boxes were in good shape, love the sand at harbor shores. It is very consistent and almost easy to play from.

Staff is super friendly and what one expects at a high end venue.

They used to offer community days to local residents but those days are long gone.

Of you get a chance to play here it’s a great value with a hot deal offer from golf now.

Pro style layout

Great course and layout. Course and driving range in great shape. Championship style layout greens were in great shape rolling fast and like true Nicklaus style had significant undulations. Everything about this was first class even the rough that trapped several of our balls. Would definitely play it again whenever I make it back to Southwest Michigan
