Amazing course, excellent condition and beautiful! Everyone there was super nice as well. Played their sister course, The Nightmare, and it was awesome too. Wish we lived closer so we could play this again soon. If you’re in the area, don’t skip these two courses! Excellent value for the money.

Can’t wait for our next trip back here. The course was in great condition and is notably well maintained. Greens were quick and rolling pure, friendly staff and starters/rangers, nice range and putting green, BYOB, $60/50 same day rate for Dream/Nightmare.

This is one of the best golf courses in Michigan! It's very well groomed, and it flows with the natural landscape of the land perfectly. All the people that work there are very nice and friendly, they kind of made you feel at home. It was definitely a golf treat to my wife and myself. This was our first time golfing there, but it definitely won't be our last time. It lived up to hype!

First time here and really enjoyed the experience! Well manicured greens and fairways and very nice staff! You can tell they give the course some extra TLC. 9 holes was only $45 per person with cart on a holiday weekend and definitely worth it.

Stopped in on our way back from the cottage for a walk-on twilight round. Starter got us out right away and the course was in fantastic shape. Greens were fast and true, fairways soft and lush. Overall, 10/10 for shape and design. Bunkers were really, really nice. Lots of sand and well raked. We hadn't played here in 10 years or so, and it was at least as good as we remembered, probably better. This course and it's sister course (The Nightmare) are "must play" courses in central Michigan. Bring your own beverages, the course is not licensed, but they will provide you with a cooler and ice for…

This course was absolutely worth the drive. My son and I made the two-hour trip, and it was well worth it. Compared to any courses near us, The Dream stands out as one of the best. I’d gladly make the drive again on a weekday just to play it. Everything about the course is excellent—the fairways are incredibly smooth and virtually free of divots. Whatever they’re doing to keep it in such great shape, they should definitely keep it up!

Beautiful! The course was in great shape and fun to play. The service was beyond what we expected. When we booked our tee time they reminded us that we can BYOB and they will have a cooler with ice ready for us. Can't wait to play the nightmare next.

This course is absolutely amazing . The staff is very friendly and will go above and beyond to make sure you’re happy. Now for the main item. The course is very clean, the hole locations were a little difficult. If you don’t mind sand traps, they have plenty of them. But they are perfectly groomed and very easy to get out of. Rangers are ensuring that play is not getting slow. Definitely coming back for sure.

Played the nightmare a few times in college years ago but not the Dream. Unbelievable course. Condition is nearly immaculate. The fairways and tee boxes are beautiful, the bunkers are are well maintained and the sand is phenomenal, and the greens are fast and pure. Could be a top 10 course in the state.
