Best Bang 4 Buck

Best course you can play in Northern Michigan for 50 Dollars. Has all you want in a course but a steep tee fee. I would recommend to any level player.

Quirky layout but I really enjoy playing it

I summer nearby and play this course often. The layout is a little confusing with a lot of travel between holes. The elevation changes make the cart paths through the woods down right dangerous when wet. Be careful. One or two “gimmicky” holes do not overshadow this really enjoyable, deep in the woods course full of wildlife. GREAT value, very challenging & well kept. The #9 hole is my favorite in all of Michigan, one that every golfer should get to play. I always look forward to playing this quirky, likable, beautiful course. Nice people. Good hot dogs. Go play it.

Golf now saved us 36$ from this round

Walked in on a tee time asked how much it was. Staff said 100$ I said but you have 15 open tee times between now and the next two hours. We can go to golf now to get a cheaper rate. They said we would still be charged for tee time I laughed went outside booked a time on your site for 20 minutes later sent my guy in to register and get recipient for starter.

Golf course is very well maintained with fantastic greens.

Beautiful course

The course was breathtaking and in excellent condition. We played at a timely pace without rush and its expansive layout allowed for groups in front and behind us to stay at pace also. Fairways and greens were in great condition, greens were super fast. The views from many tee boxes were outstanding and we'd play this course again for sure!
