Clearbrook Golf Club Tee Times

I don't usually read reviews for golf courses that I've never played. Usually it's from people that have had a wedding there or beginner golfers who don't know what they're talking about. The reviews for this course were mixed at best mostly complaints about the sand traps being rough in the greens being covered by ball marks. This couldn't be further from the truth; this is one outstanding, well run, well kept golf course in Saugatuck. Midweek rate $68 over 60 years old $40 I would have paid twice that much. Beautiful well kept bunkers, conditions were beautiful greens that had interesting undulations on each hole, narrow fairways, well bunkered par threes. I wouldn't believe a single poor review of this golf course that I see on this site I played it yesterday and I'll go back every time I head back up to Michigan.

Awesome public course. Haven't played the back, but the front 9 is a ton of fun. The conditions were immaculate and I really appreciated how they made each hole have a unique feel. Sometimes it's a narrow corridor off the tee, other times it's a blind approach shots up a steep hill. The soft greens were so receptive to approach shots, and the fairways were in great condition. The course goes back and forth over this creek which makes you think. The 9th hole is a beautiful, long par 3. Also, the people were so nice. Props to the staff. I've been back twice in a few days, and I imagine I'll be back to experience the back before I head home.

First time playing the course. Overall the course was in good shape. There are some issues with very sparse grass growing on parts of fairways and tee boxes. Sand traps were terrible, according to thise i played with, as i was never in one, but from what i saw, they were not really "sand" traps and more like dirt and rock traps. Greens were in great shape and were fast

We had a group of 20 ladies play over the weekend visiting from the East side of the State. We were all in agreement, Clearbrook was definitely lacking the description on their website, and was not worth a weekend rate of $78. The course has a nice layout, but the fairways were really rugged and rustic, brown spots and lots of bare areas. Sand traps were full of stones. I work at a golf course, and I know the weather this summer, in Michigan, has not been kind to many of them. Greens were ok. It appears Clearbrook is lacking some TLC. At best $50 for a weekend rate would be more appropriate. We spoke to a couple who left early because of slow play, in their words "it's a bit of a dog track". The best part of our round was the starter. He was very friendly and helpful to our group, a great photographer!

Great course a few of the holes include a blind shot and precision. Greens are in great shape. Bar and Grill are great. We never saw a beverage cart while we played. Driving range limited to irons. Pace of play was great.
