Shanty Creek

Great course to start with forgiving and awesome greens. If you play a draw this course is for you! I don’t!

It’s gonna slow play on a Friday. Caught a pretty good deal at the Cedar River lot a great deal there played some of $75 the other horses I oxide one year ago. Sorry Siri doesn’t understand what I’m saying and I’m not gonna type this so anyway yeah it was OK. Old-school course pretty good shape overall after playing course in the Cadillac area before it was good $75 for two of us I felt fair but still I wouldn’t pay 70 bucks each to play some course that’s for sure anyway yeah it’s a one and done for us again.

A must play. Course layout is wonderful. Great pace of play.

This is a beautiful golf course, ruined by pace of play on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning. This when guys groups show up in groups of 12 and 16, ready to drink and party, drink lots of beer and maybe an effort to play golf. Rounds on these days can be closer to 5 1/2 hours than 4 hours. The assistants are not allowed to enforce pace of play under fear of termination. Front 9 took 2 hrs 50 minutes. Quit after 13.

Morning rain pushed back tee times . Group in front of us let us go ahead and we (three) played in 3.5 hours cart path only. Greens drained very well and were true and pretty fast. Some

Bunkers washed out but overall experience was very good. Would recommend , not cheap but great layout .

We quit after 12 holes and 4 hours and 10 minutes in round. As we headed back to club house ranger was sitting on hole 14 talking on phone and had no regards to how things were not moving....we found the issues hole 16 had three foursome on it and hole 17 and 18 wide open....I guess it pays to be in a big group and do want you want. My son and I had a terrible experience!!

The fact that they have become cashless is terrible.

The course is beautiful and well kept, but we got stuck behind an outing that we’re playing super slow and had to stop after 3 hours with only 10 holes played. Can’t do a 6 hour round, really wish we knew we were stuck behind the super slow outing.

I have always enjoyed the challenging layout at Hawk's Eye but it seems that since they have become part of the Shanty Creek golf course family, things have taken a turn for the worse. Most of the tee boxes were sparse and the pace of play is a problem. No course should be targeting a 4.5 hour round of golf. That in itself is problematic. Instead of saying that they are helpless when trying to enforce slow play, make it known at check-in that any group out of position will be warned once and then asked to move ahead a hole if they don't close the gap. Probably best to play the course mid-week when there are fewer Shanty Creek golf package players.

I found the course in good condition. It was pretty challenging, but not extremely so. The staff was friendly (starter, ranger, front desk, bag drop). It is a good value for the money. I'll definitely be back.

Spectacular conditions worthy of tournament play, excellent throughout, super pure greens. Have always enjoyed playing here over many years and it continues to be the stand-out course at Shanty Creek. Layout isn't quite as impressive as The Legend, if only it was in as good of shape!
