Michigan's #2 Course on a dirt road

Willow Wood is a secluded 18 hole golf course, with No Homes, just south of Portland Michigan. The Greens are some of the best in Michigan, Fairways nice and lush green, Bunkers have been upgraded. 2nd cut ruff is manageable, finding your ball not a difficult task..

Call course directly. Yes GN is convenient but you do NOT get the best price, especially the Senior Rate which will save $5. The course will not refund the extra $5 GN charges over the senior rate at the course. This was a rip-off. Fair warning.

Great forgiving course

This course was challenging and forgiving. Give you the opportunity to be aggressive with your shots and I did not penalize you in most holes if you had a bad shot.

Super Windy

Great little course I had a lot of fun, it's still early for Michigan golf. That being said the greens were good and the ball ran true. Super friendly staff, I will definitely go back later. Great day despite the wind.

Best bang for your buck

I’ve played Willow Wood for years now & have always loved it. Great layout, fun holes, very scenic course in the middle of mid-west Mich. Always in great shape, staff is incredible. Will be golfing here for many more years to come!

End of Season

The course was in great shape. They were blowing out the lines for winter. But it was 78 degree. Calendar said it was time. Funny ah.
