Up from Florida

second time playing this course. excellent conditions, weather, layout, and very challenging. greens were punched a week or so ago, so they were a little bumpy and not as fast as last time we played. any course that punches the greens should offer a discount for that inconsistency. All in all, a very nice experience

Nice course but overrated

The course seemed to be in good shape for this time of the year. The greens were not in good shape. It appeared they have not done much this spring to help out the greens. Not well maintained compared to current other Michigan courses.
Sand traps are very nice (unfortunately I know this). White real sand-seemingly unknown for most of other southeast Micigan courses.

Played Monday 10:00a.m.

Played Monday April 8th at 10:00a.m. No one in front of us and no one behind us.
Did a golf now discount. It was $40 each for 18 holes.
I wouldn't play here in the summer and pay $65.00

Slow Play - SEVEN players on green!

Four golf carts and seven men were in the group ahead of us, slowing play for everyone. It took FIVE hours to complete 18 holes. The course officials were afraid to tell the GROUP OF SEVEN drunken golfers to break up. It’s these kind of experiences that make me certain that I need to join a country club soon.
