Rush Lake Hills Golf Course, Pickney, MI

I had purchased a groupgolfer last winter for Rush Lake Hills and finally got there. The course is owned by Henry Ford Hospital and all profits go to cancer research which I think is pretty cool.  The course is older and the facilities reflect that, but the course itself is kept up very well.  The front nine is kind of wide open and the back nine is more scenic and rolling. Hills is the operative word in the title of this course. There were lots of them even on the greens! It was not a hard course but the greens were not easy by any means.  There were very few sand bunkers and water only came into play on a couple holes. There were some nice par 3s and the par 5s were very manageable. There were only three tee boxes and the women's were quite fair. There was no cart person or ranger and play was really slow. They don't pair you up so that might have been part of the problem (although as a general rule I don't like getting paired up).  We didn't get any food on the turn but it was available. No water available that I could see and the only bathrooms were port-a-potties that were quite clean. The employees were beyond nice and thanked us for coming.  It's an hour drive for us but I would play there again, for the cancer research connection alone!
