Course was in great shape. Greens were fairly paced. We played Blue tees which made the course a bit more difficult. Will play again.

In the toughest conditions

The course just experienced a major storm the evening before and they got the course ready and allowed us to play. This is the first time a public course offered gps on the cart and even had the ability to warn us about wet areas.

we will be back again.

Great Course

Starter does a great job. We teed off right on our tee time. Course was in great condition. Real nice course layout. No tricked-up holes. Greens were in outstanding shape. Pins work well with rangefinders. The food truck is awesome. Will definitely play another Hot Deal round here.

Good times at Hunter’s Ridge

We got a hot deal and played at 4:10 with no stopping other than to look for an errant shot in the heather. The pace was fantastic at my wife and breezed through a 3.5 hr round. The greens are challenge and some of the pin placements were an extra challenge as a 3 putt was recorded more than once. The fairways were cut nice and were very nice. The greens were soft and quick. We enjoyed our round and look forward to playing the coarse again this summer.

Worth the trip

Hunters Ridge is a links style course that challenging but fair for a twice-a-week golfer. Price for seniors is good, course was in fine shape, though a little soggy from recent rains. It's a good measure of our still developing games. It's a remote location with a getaway feel. Bring extra balls if you slice or hook! That's part of the challenge.

Hidden gem

Links at Hunter's Ridge is a hidden gem. Best value for a course in that condition. Big tees and greens, in great condition. Fairways were in good condition. You could see Jerry Matthew's all over this course. Will play again for sure

1st Time at Hunters Ridge

This little gem is tucked back in what seems to be nowhere Howell and it’s amazing.. This course has some of the best greens I have ever played on and the course conditions were amazing. I got a hot deal on GN for $33 and it was as nice as courses in the Metro Detroit area and surrounding counties that are double and triple the price.. It is a must play
