Wow, I'm the first to review! Awesome!…read more Well I'm not an avid golfer, but my kiddos are, and my father in law and also my hubs loves to golf.... From what I am told, it's a great course, with nicely manicured greens and the management is first class. I have had lunch and dinner here. The lunch is great! They give you huge portions...I think they could easily chop them in half and people would be fine with that. Dinner is also good here. I had the root beer chicken. It sounded interesting, but was so good! It was served with wonderful mashed potatoes and asparagus spears. Everything was cooked perfectly. I am surprised it isn't busier than it is. I guess it's just a hidden gem in a West Branch. When you visit the area, be sure to stop in for a game of golf or a bite to eat.

The sun quickly faded behind the building, and made for a much more enjoyable visit. The server was sweet and addressed members by name. Well almost ;P (Ms. is a professional and didn't take his name) We ordered a couple drinks and hit the menu. The menu was small but with a nice selection. From light to hearty, we all found a dish we looked forward to having in front of us. The wine list was about as big as the menu. Very nice options for whites and reds, either by the glass or bottle. The wine was proper temp and a proper pour. I had the orange roughy with a cup of vegetable soup to start. The soup was flavorful. The fish was excellent and just the right portion. The club was beautiful with nice appointments in each room. Shady parking lot, lovely pull-up entrance and well-manicured grounds. Everyone was very nice. There is a dress code, but nothing crazy. No jeans, t-shirt or shorts.

IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER FIND ANOTHER COURSE…read more First off, the course is underwhelming when comparing it to any Boyne owned courses. Second, the staff is unbelievably rude to non members. They don't want non members to golf there, they just want your money. We were golfing a 9 hole scramble with a group of 4 and a group of 3. The course staff told us to tee off the back 9, but be aware of some twosomes coming up behind us (obviously not a problem). They did not catch us until the 8th hole, and we let them pass. The course martial came out on a golf cart after the 8th hole and told us that we were "making this very difficult for him" and that "he will be having to deal with calls from members complaining about this". We competed 9 holes in 2 hours so by no means were we going slow. We get back to the clubhouse and the golf manager came out to tell us that we are not welcome back. They want one time golf fees from non members, but do not want us to actually golf there. The reality is they can't stay open if they don't keep it open to non members, but will complain about them instead the entire time they are golfing. We won't be back. If you are looking for a good place to golf, I recommend going to Crooked Tree, or another Boyne owned course. The courses are better and the staff is much friendlier.
