First of all, this was a fun course.

The greens really are a lot of fun, if a bit slower than I expected. The holes had good variety to them. You couldn’t just step up and smash driver every time. It required a decent amount of strategy and thought. But nothing too crazy. It was in nice shape. It was a nice course. And this is perhaps ...

Pilgrim's Run was the most peaceful round of golf I have ever experienced.

While I often judge a golf course by it's walkability, Pilgrim's Run does not lose any points in my book for it's lack of walkability. The charm of the course is that each hole feels like it's own individual experience. The staff was fantastic and the course was very well manicured. While the green'...

Pilgrim's Run is "Pure Michigan" golf at its finest and deserves more recognition.

Pilgrim's Run is one of those courses that quietly earns your respect the further into the round you get. Set across approximately 800 acres, where only half of which is dedicated to golf, it offers a peaceful setting where the golf course blends naturally into the surrounding landscape. Pulling in ...

Playable from every yardage, and enjoyable for every handicap.

Pilgrim's Run's backstory is almost as great as the course and the two are intertwined as the course winds through trees and over hills. Most likely you will use every club in your bag with tee shots and approaches. Beautiful opening with the practice facilities right at the clubhouse, so park, putt...

We would have to “Shrink the Game” if more daily fee public golf courses were like Pilgrim’s Run.

Pilgrim’s Run has everything that you could ask from a true daily fee public golf course; great conditions, interesting design, nice facilities, and all at a very reasonable price. Most public golf courses just do not make you think while you are playing the round, it is just pound driver off every ...

Pilgrims Run has a private club feel from the moment you turn off County Line Road through the arched stone walls that flank the entrance.

The starter "shack" is a wonderfully ornate little structure that also adds to that feel as you make your way to the first tee.While there are some ordinary holes tee to green, the golfing experience here is far from ordinary. The course has a tremendous feel of "place" with wildlife abundant as you...

Gorgeous property - rolling through forests with plenty of elevation change and natural beauty.

Course is in great shape (Aug. 2021) and greens rolled very true. Located about 30 mins from Grand Rapids makes this very accessible. 18th hole is a classic risk/reward hole.

Pilgrim's Run is part of the Mike Devries Grand Rapids trifecta, which might just make one of the most fun inexpensive golf trips you can take.

For less than $100 you can play the Mines, Pilgrim's Run, and Diamond Springs, and enjoy the young and lively town of Grand Rapids, which is a ton of fun. Pilgrim's Run is the more typically modern of the three designs. Its tighter, features a decent number of water hazards and is extremely challeng...

Pilgrims Run is a brilliant Mike DeVries design that does not get its Due!

This is a true gem of a golf course that has better architecture, conditioning and greens than many Top 100 public courses in the US and in Michigan. The owners of Pilgrims get it and keep the golfer at front of mind at all times. $30-75 tee times range balls included you get the feeling of being at...

The course is blessed in being free of intrusions and the turf quality is quite good.

The main deficiency is that the bulk of the holes are merely satisfactory -- with precious little in terms of architecture design that really elicits rapture.The routing does move around the property but the land movement is fairly tame as holes are slotted through wooded areas.The par-3 7th is done...
