About Inn at St. John’s
This unique property became a golf resort in 2006 when the former St. John's Provincial Seminary reopened as the Inn at St. John's, a boutique, four-diamond property adjacent to the 27-hole Brae Burn Golf Club. The 118-room inn features Romanesque architecture, two ballrooms with 25-foot ceilings, a two-story atrium and 22 meeting rooms. The more casual Burger Loft complements the fine dining 5ive Steakhouse and Bar. The course, dating to 1923 before a third nine was added in the 1990s, shares its site with Carl's Golfland at St. John's, one of the country's premier golf stores. There's also a covered, heated range at Carl's to bang balls year-round to prepare for your battle with "The Monster" - the nickname for the 666-yard 13th hole, the longest par 5 in the state.Facts

Brae burn
Not fancy or anything crazy , but great value. Staff was very friendly and bathrooms were nice and clean. 100 yrs they have been around I Enjoyed the course. Couple of slow pokes slowing people down but not anyone’s fault. I liked the “monster” hole though it was cool.
March Golf in Michigan
The gentleman running the operation was super nice, but did have his hands full as shop pro, bartender and starter, among other tasks.
The restrooms in the clubhouse are undergoing renovation. The open restroom is unisex. My sister was not thrilled.
The cart paths are worse than any Michigan road and likely inflict a lot of damage to the aged golf carts.
Low portions of the course were either had standing water, or were soaking, sinking wet. Other than that, course conditions were decent for mid March Michigan golf. Greens were soft but rolled well. The monster #13 par 5 was fun. Course layout was enjoyable for a 15 hc golfer. Overall an okay place to play but likely others that play better.
Challenging Course
So late in the season we were a handful of golfers who ventured out. Literally 10 or so and the course conditions were partially wet. The greens were slower than usual which meant better putting! I had 30 putts which is very good for my level of play. I didn’t especially like all the ropes off areas but understand the course maintenance personnel are trying to keep carts off the fairways in low lying sections. I like this course and since it was in November(14) the conditions and weather was above “par”.
Slowwwww pace
Course in ok shape for November. Play us so so slow. The guys who play here refuse to let singles play through, very frustrating. Not good value for cost figuring in pace of play and conditions, plenty better value courses in the area.

Nice course
Course was in good shape. The club house was not in good shape. Needs work. Golf carts are needing to be replaced. They are showing their age. Restrooms were not very clean. But, the course itself was in good shape. The monster hole was an experience.

Trouble
There is trouble everywhere…every green is fast and has a TON of slope. There were a lot of very wet areas. There is water on the Monster hole just past the 2nd turn so stay left and don’t try to cut the corner unless your drive is very long and left. Tough course mainly due to the greens. If you can hit an iron 220ish that is your best bet on most of the par 4’s!
