Calumet country club not well kept

Most of the greens were burnt up. Grass and grounds not well maintained. No washroom working in clubhouse and no porta potty on course.

Play elsewhere

They canceled my tee time the day before due to “weather” but my tee time was re posted shortly after. Could not get ahold of the pro shop.
Played there the following week, and booked with a cart. Although after getting there it was walking only. Not a huge deal but no reimbursement or trying to make whole in either scenario.

Course wise- tee boxes are pretty trash, fairway bunkers are overgrown with weeds, and lots of leaves.

Tee boxes and traps need work.

Tee boxes and traps need work. Greens are fast and tricky. Fairways are good. Lack of signage is a pain. No longer CC quality, but a good course at a good price.

Most sand traps and signage are poor but course length, challenging holes and good value are all there.

Most holes do not say what number it is. Sinage with arrows are need for next hole especially leaving j#15 Most sand traps are poor and should be filled in and seeded. Purse is long and there are some hollering holes.

Should be closed

Course is a dumpster fire from the new general manager to the sand traps with rocks, tree limbs, and weeds in them.

Nice layout.

Greens were in good shape. Traps terrible weeds and no sand 🤷‍♂️. Nice layout but needs a lot of TLC no hole #s at holes and need better direction to next hole

Great course for the price!

Overall, this place was awesome! The only thing that needed help was the fairways. Greens were superb. Some of the sand traps were weeded, but really wasn’t concerned about them. Would definitely recommend giving this course a try. A lot of tough holes. Good challenge for you.

Below average

An average golf course has tee boxes in good condition. Not at Calumet country club. I paid over $70 on a Saturday to play a course with aerated fairways and weed infested tee boxes. The "sand" bunkers are a joke. Minimal sand and may overtaken by weeds. I was not expecting any of this. It's been a couple of years since I played this course. There are a lot of choices in this area for golf. Sadly, this course will no longer be considered. It's not worth $70.
