Paying $10.00 to park is Crazy!

There is a $10.00 Parking gate just before the course which does not make much sense and will keep me from returning to this Michigan Metropark course.

Foggy day of fun

Extremely foggy morning round. Still had an awesome experience on the course. Well maintained, and cannot best for the price. Only negative is paying an extra 10$ for the day pass at the metro park. Will for sure be back

Good layout and conditions

Still a good place and value for the money. The rating would be higher except lost too many balls under the fallen leaves, even though they were still playable.
Only downside is that you still have to pay park gate fee’s. We saw a number of deer on course which was nice.

Awesome state run course.

The course and it’s layout are awesome. Initially I was concerned about the pace of play . There were several foursomes lined up at the #1 tee box. I was pleasantly surprised at the pace of play after teeing off. The clubhouse rivals that of a private club. The restroom facilities were spotless. After a bratwurst and a beer, we were on our way to the back nine. The course is well manicured and the holes are challenging and fast. My only complaint is the $10 fee for entering the park. I feel that this fee should be waived for golfers.

Great course

I know they’ve struggled with staffing, but they need a marshal enforcing pace of play. Our front 9 took 3 hours, luckily the group ahead of us only played 9. The course is in phenomenal shape, greens are firm and fast. Although it’s not a very long course, it’s still a challenge, especially with all the long par 3’s. If not for pace to of play I’d give it 5 stars.

Quite nice

Beautiful course and I found to be very challenging. Thick rough narrow fairways but simply beautiful and very well kept. Like walking on carpet!
