Worst course so far I’ve played in Michigan. They should just shut it down. 15-18 are good and hole 1 is good. The rest… no effort from the city it appears. Rumors of homeless in the woods…. Could explain the trash everywhere

Wow, this place is an absolute joke. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE. Its literally unpleasant to walk and try and navigate. Like who honestly signed off on this? Its legit a nightmare. Trash/junk everywhere, super long walks bw holes, ZERO tree maintenance, signs are a joke, pads are a joke just wow.....

Cobblestone tee boxes are unstable, course doesnt have any upkeep or creativity to it

Based on ingenuity, unique shots, and the awesome use of elevation this course would get a 4 to 4.5. Because of the uneven ground, garbage, and uneven / unstable walking paths I rated this course lower. Kudos to the caretakers for making the most of this course!

Course has lots of potential, could use clean of litter and larger junk. Tee signs where accurate and well kept, could use more signage in between baskets.

It needs some clean up and lovin. This course could be really amazing with all of it’s elevation and shot variety. Be ready for a bit of a hike. Not only is it not cart friendly it is cart impossible. Loved how quiet it was, oddly I didn’t see any wild life.

@soldier9909

It has potential. But it's in extremely rough shape.

Several holes are unplayable. 0 upkeep

Had the chance to be amazing. Very deceived as we reached a beautiful park on the lake. Hole one was a decent tunnel shot. Once you enter the woodline it starts to become obsurd. Some water shots I felt as though were not realistic and didn't make sense. Terrible use of beautiful land. The course makes you walk the entire lake, literally. I am made for walking but found the distance in between holes ridiculous. Would have loved to see more use of the open park. Needs a reset and redesign, but most importantly someone who cares. Maintenance is overwhelming due to poor course design.

Lots of love was given to a few holes. Needs more love/work but is a fun wooded technical course. This is a fall/winter course it's just not playable in the summer

Pretty good signage but the course needs maintenance, it's overgrown and feels neglected.

@mrmargy

They added maps and fix some of the holes from many years ago. Still can be over grown but is better than years back

@bsampey1212

Really high weeds so it is real easy to loose disc.

Overgrown but lots of potential.

@grantman123

Fun unique shots. Good signage and directions. Not a cart course. Big walks between some holes through a couple squishy spots. Multiple water carries. Insane amount of mosquitoes.

Cool course with A LOT of elevation change and a TON of walking. If it had 18 tee pads, it would get a higher score. But signage is decent to help navigate. UDisc helped a lot as well.

@tonythepwny

This course has a ton of potential. It really needs to be played more often by people who care, for it to improve. Lots of walking between 1 and 2, 7 and 8, 12 and 13, 14 and 15, 15 and 16. Better signs, tee pads, and better use of the natural elements would easily make this a 5 star course.

@codyeng

I liked the course but like others have said definitely not cart friendly and has some room to improve. Very muddy but you’d expect that this time of year.
