One of the best courses in the Traverse City area, a must play! The best thing is that there are two tees and two baskets for every hole, so there is lots of variation. The course is well marked and has great elevation variants. Plus, it will get you in shape.. Lots of hiking! Thank you to Tod Lewis and all who pitched in to make this such a great course!

+I loved the fact there are two tee pads and two baskets, so you can play 1 hole so many different ways!
+The elevation changes here are simply awesome!
+I don't think I have played anywhere else with so many uphill shots!
+Pink baskets and blue baskets are so easy to find!
+Good flow, well marked, easy for all types of throwers
+Between 16 and 17 is Uncle Todd's Bomber, an extra hole for fun, 650' I think, downhill, fun
+Hole 18 is awesome, downhill through a tunnel, very cool
+Great signs and maps!!!
+Will be back for sure
^No scorecards anywhere
^Be ready to hike
^I tried to like the carpet tees, couldn't do it, ended up throwing from behind them

Sometimes it seemes like all you are doing is walking straight uphill. Not for the unfit or faint of heart. But once you get there, super awesome elevation changes. Hole 18 is a tight, tunneling, VERY downhill shot. This is my favorite hole of anywhere. Picture perfect and totally awesome! Take a good long look and take a picture before you throw on this hole. This course has the best signage of anywhere on its first 9 holes and some lack of signage with difficulty finding the next tee on a couple of holes on the next nine. It took 20 minutes to find #10 and didnt find 2 other holes at all. This signalling a lack of flow on the second nine. These, along with the intense uphill walking has lowered my review of this course. But if you are like me and want elevation changes, along with breathtaking views, play this course. The double tee pads and double baskets on every hole are something that almost all courses should do and help keep this course new and interesting every time playing it with all the options that this gives you.

This course is a amazing. Over the four different layouts, you can find just about everything. While the pink baskets play forgiving to beginners, the pro layout is substantially more challenging with winding fairways, elevation, and intense doglegs. I am a huge fan of courses with the two tee/ two basket options. The land is used to its full potential. I also love the extra work put into the course, such as the unique benches, tee signs, and other interesting obstacles. I would've spent all day in the added Bomber CTP Hole. It's ideas like these that really make this course stand out. The course is still fairly new, and does still need a little cleanup. I was kinda iffy about the carpet tees, but they really didn't affect play. The only beef I have with this course is the walking distance. This thing is a HIKE! Overall, the course is beautiful, and each hole brings something new.

Straight amazing course on a ski slope. The elevation is presented to the highest degree. LABELED WELL with beautiful tee signs and markings to next hole's.Two baskets and two tee pads every hole. The short baskets are the brightest of pink and can be seen a mile away, the long baskets are dark blue (all brand new mach five's). The tee pads are carpet, I honestly liked them.From short to short it's mainly all short holes and not too difficult but a lot of fun shots, still the hike alone is a challenge. Long to long has a couple par 4's for sure, beautiful pin placements with deadly drop offs, technical woods shots to open crushes. No water, one pond but if you throw in it then you should not be playing here. Don't ever miss out, this AMAZING course was put in memory to a young woman named Carly. Much more but i'd be talking forever. enjoy AND IT'S FREE!!!!

If you like big time challenges and variety you won't find it any better than here. You have to throw it to realize how cool it was for the the designers to come up with two complete course running almost side by side. By mixing the tee pads and baskets you get 4 different courses in one location. Bonus The ski lodge bar is open on Thursday and Friday afternoons so you can set on the deck between rounds with your favorite beverage and watch the tee shots off the hill on #10.

Not for the faint of heart. Mentally and physically challenging. Bring your A game and plenty of water with a snack, now ENJOY...this course is awesome! Par (3) must be earned on most holes and bad shots are punished thoroughly. Tee pad signs are a heartfelt and thoughtful tribute to Carly and her family, well done.

Very cool course with the best signage I've ever experienced. With the two tee and two basket options you can really play this course over and over with different experiences. This course being on a ski hill does make for a bit of hiking but it's well worth it. I hope I get back here someday, it was a blast.

Awesome course designed by Gregg Hosfeld and built with love in remembrance of Carly Lewis. With 2 tee pads and 2 permanent baskets on every hole, this course provides some really fun and challenging layouts, with the Blue Pads to Blue Baskets being the toughest, obviously, but the others are no joke. Lots of holes that make you want to just stand there and empty your bag, because they are so fun to throw. Well worth checking out. If you can make it through more than 2 rounds in a day here, I commend you! Bring your hiking shoes and stretch first, cause it's a workout.

Right away this is a top 5 Michigan course!!! Great variety! Your entire range of shots is tested off the tee, on upshots and putts.....on all 4 layouts!!! 2 tees (Blue and Pink) and 2 baskets (Blue and Pink) on EVERY hole!!!!!!! Super fun elevation on a bunch of holes. Epic shots on #9 and #17. Amazing pin placements on so many holes!!! I can't wait to get back to play again! It makes for an AWESOME Tournament venue!

They have really done a great job transforming this sub par 9 hole course into a pro level 18 hole course with tons of variation. With am tees, pro tees, am baskets, and pro baskets there are endless ways to enjoy this course. Great variation of shots including uphill, downhill, tight holes, open holes, doglegs, even over water. The only beef i have with this course is the butt kicking hills. I wish there was a better way to get those beautiful elevation shots. If your not in at least decent shape your going to have a hard time making it through this course.

great course. eighteen holes each hole having two tee boxes and two baskets. that makes for a good veriety of ways to play the course. there is just about everyshot out there. and don't get off the beaten path or you could find yourself in some trouble.
the course would be a perfecet A+ if the couse had a better flow, cleaned up a bit.,and a few minor changes to tee and bascket locations.

Do you dream of the huge downhill rip? It's here. Narrow, wooded fairways? Yup. Doglegs and S-turns? Check and check. Uphill? You bet. Elevation changes? In spades. Side hill and creative pin placement? But of course! On the Red/Pink tee/basket combination, there's only one hole over 400' yet very few are lacking in significant challenge or risk/reward situations. Even the shortest, at 112', was a bear with a super narrow, heavily wooded lane, a low ceiling, and a slight right bend around the side of the hill. Add basket placement on the side of that hill and my deuce run quickly turned into a 5 on a roll away with no way back into the woods.
