Red Oaks Golf Course

About Red Oaks Golf Course

This Madison Heights municipal track punches well above its weight for a public course tucked into a dense suburban setting. The routing makes clever use of limited acreage, with several elevated tees and greens that create more visual interest than you'd expect from the relatively flat terrain. The course maintains surprisingly good conditioning given the heavy play it sees, and the greens have enough subtle breaks to keep things interesting without being unfair to mid-handicappers. What sets Red Oaks apart from other budget-friendly options in the Detroit metro is its walkability and pace of play. The layout flows naturally from hole to hole without the awkward transitions that plague many municipal redesigns, and you can actually get around in under four hours on weekends if you time it right. At the price point, you're getting solid value for a course that respects the game without trying to be something it's not.
