Flip City
Shelby, MI · 1 course · 24 holes
Love this place. Great pre-round pitch & putt. Long and shorter holes. I will play this course forever, regardless of how much my disc golf game grows.
Wasn't gonna leave a review because, well, look how many there are.. but, I saw someone gave this place an F and said it's because they think it's overrated. So, here's another A+ to keep the good vib ...

Wow. NOT the #1 course in Michigan. A bit rough. The course needs some upgrades to be made. New paint. No tee signs or direction markers. The design is not that interesting. Too many wide open rig ...

Enough good things can not be said about course. Challenging and fun layout. A roller-coaster ride of a course. Builds up smooth then has you winding up and down, over dips and through trees. Never ma ...

Not super cart friendly but its long, so its hard to say if carrying all that water is better, or carts over rocks, up and down is better.
If you are on the west side of MI, you should go there and play.
To be sure, I had pretty high expectations going in to it. Though it was well maintained and well designed, I thought it was lackluster. It is an awesome home course, but, when I think of the best cou ...

I visited Flip City on vacation and it was amazing!! Elevation changes, a very tall elevated basket on a hill, a hanging basket, and beautiful scenery everywhere. For me it was my first time playing o ...

I feel like I played a different flip city course than everyone else. It's a good course with nice scenery but nothing close to the best course in the country.

Top rated course, not only for the quality & technical components of the holes, but also for the serenity of the property.
This has to be one of the best courses in the state. I did not shoot it particularly well on my first time through, but that doesn’t take away from how great the course is laid out. If you’d like ...

The pictures do not do this course justice. The landscape is incredible, the terrain and the holes challenging with a wide variety fairway set ups.
What can I say that hasn't been said? The gold standard in design, maintenance, and those intangibles that renders an excellent course a veritable "field of dreams". Challenging but manageable and n ...

Best course in Michigan. Very well thought out and designed. Come here every year at least once or twice.
By far the single most intriguing, beautiful and addictive course I've had the privilege of playing. With the combinations of how well it's maintained, the elevation changes, hazards, hidden holes wit ...

One of the best courses in the country! Most holes give you a chance for birdie or better. Lots of elevation and different style shots.

The course is groomed so well, the rough is mowed to thin shapes for ease in finding discs in common 'rough' landing spots. It is a lot of work to walk the course and keep focused for 24, but it is beautiful. Every tee is a new challenge.

Awesome. I like the variety of elevation changes and being that this course is only lightly wooded it's fun and able to air out most tee shots. This is my FAVORITE. I would play here more often if I could, I live 1 hr 45 minutes away.

The most exotic course ever. The stacks, the terrain, the tee pads, and the wide array of hole types leave you in awe no matter the score. Its a disc golfers dream to put it sweet.
