In the world of golf, municipal golf courses don’t have the best reputation. Mainly associated with easy layouts, unmanaged conditions, and lackadaisical staff, too often these courses are judged on stereotype alone and not given the kind of consideration they deserve. Today’s course is proof positive that municipal courses can not only be above average, but can set the standard for great golf in an area. Rated 72.4 by the USGA and measuring a slope of 125, Green Oaks Golf Course is simply one of the most enjoyable golfing experiences you’ll have all year.

Located just a short drive from downtown Ann Arbor, the course at Green Oaks is one of Michigan’s best kept secrets of golf. Built in 1958, the course is long, over 6,700 yards, and requires both expert course management and precise shot execution to shoot a low score on the day. The layout will challenge the player of any skill or ability level, with lengthy rough, areas of water, mature trees, and sand traps all adding to the courses difficulty. The greens at Green Oaks are some of the best around. Smooth rolling and undulated, your flatstick will be tested with winding putts and challenging pin placements throughout your round.

It isn’t just the golf course that makes Green Oaks one of the best Township golf facilities in the state, it also comes with a host of great amenities to maximize your enjoyment of the day. The Pro Shop features a whole line of Green Oaks merchandise as well as a complete menu of snacks, sandwiches, hot dogs, doughnuts, and coffee. Before your round, Green Oaks offers both a well-kept short game area to practice putting and chipping, and a practice cage for you to work on your full swings. Combine that with the friendly staff and excellent atmosphere, and Green Oaks Golf Club cements its reputation as one of the finest municipal golfing experiences in the area.
