Manitou Passage Golf Club

Awesome course. It is a challenge for every aspect of your game. I would not recommend this place if you can’t keep the ball within 15 yards of the fairway unless you love looking for your ball in the woods. Two gripes: They sanded the greens either today or yesterday. It made them incredibly inconsistent and slow in some places. If I had paid full price I would have been very unsatisfied. Rates need to come down if maintenance like that is being performed. Unless of course the greens are always like this, then my rating would go down. Second, the back nine was so slow because of 4 locals split in to two groups. One of the groups finally let us through (myself and a single that had teamed up because it was so slow). Then the second group finally let us through and proceeded to complain about it in earshot for the rest of the round. They also sped up to keep pace with us from there on out. I know the course and staff haven’t much control over who is playing, but those ladies were enough to not make me want to come back. Course is great, hopefully will be back next summer.

Course was incredible, well worth the money. Fairways and greens were immaculate. Tee boxes were a little chewed up, but they're smaller and don't have much room. Almost all the holes are different, tree lined and have alot of elevation change. On very few holes can you see another hole, which is quite nice. The drives from greens to the next tee box are spaced out nicely so you don't feel rushed. I'll definitely be coming back to here.

Super fun course...pro shop lads were top notch! Starter Rod was a great guy to chat with as well. Highly recommend playing it. Greens were the perfect quickness, but rolled true. Worth the drive over from Gaylord to play 100%
