Devil's Ridge Golf Club in Oakland County boasts a northern Michigan feel
OXFORD, Mich. -- Devil's Ridge Golf Club in northern Oakland County has all of the trappings of a northern Michigan course without the four-hour trek up I-75.
There is no development around the golf course, the service is superb, the price is right and the conditions of the bent grass fairways and greens are flawless. The views of the surroundings are breathtaking.
It's a fun course that takes your through wetlands for the first half and up and down steep hills for the second. It's a dramatic combination that tests all aspects of your game.
However, four tees chunk the course up well, ranging from 6,754 yards from the tips to 4,113 yards in front. Devil's Ridge Golf Club is irresistible. If asked why you played it again, just tell people the devil made you do it.
