We had a charity outing, and I found this to be one of the best public courses I've been on! Has a similar feel to some of the high-end courses in the area. Definately a course worth the money.

Very well kept for the amount of use it sees. The views from #6 of both arms of the Grand Traverse Bay are like no other place in the area.

The course... More

Really?? $20 for a cart or $10 to split one for 9 holes?? The course is alright, below average for the area really. I will never be visiting this course again. Don't waste your money here. There are better courses for cheaper rates in the area.

My son and I played Elmbrook this past week (7/12/07). The course was in "average" condition, typical for a municipal course, and terribly overpriced @ $49. per person, with cart. It appeared that Elmbrook sets their fees similar to other area courses, with out the "quality" that other area courses offered. Based on our experience and value received, we will... More
