Richmond Forest Golf Club is an up-scale course, open to the public and located in Lenox Township, Michigan, which began operations in June 1994. W. Bruce Matthews III, a third generation golf course architect whose family has been in the golf course business since 1925, designed the course.

Located 30 miles north of Detroit, Richmond Forest is a 6,700-yard par-72 golf course routed around ponds, woods and open land. The course has 8 holes adjacent to any one of 7 ponds and 9 holes playing through woods of beech, oak and maple.

Sand and grass bunkers surround large greens making proper club and shot selection vital to a low scoring round. Forty-six bunkers are positioned to challenge the better golfers, yet the large, varied Bent grass tees and wide fairways provide playing options for all levels of play. A large practice facility features target greens.

Richmond Forest 4.2 5 13 13
nice in very good cond for 2-2-12 wound like to try again in summer December 3, 2012
A pleasant surprise My wife and I went to Richmond Forest on December 1st, but even at this time of the year the course looked very good. The tee boxes are beautifully maintained. Greens weren't bad for this time of the year, either. We never heard of this course before seeing it listed on GolfNow.com. The course is surprisingly nice, and we'd love to see it in the summertime, so we'll be back then. There is lots of water on the front nine, lots of trees in the back. Challenging enough to be interesting, but not so much as to be discouraging. All-in-all, a pleasant experience. We'll definitely be back again in the spring or summer! December 2, 2012
Two courses in one The front 9 here has a lot of water, where the back has a lot more trees. Lots of fun. November 21, 2012
Richmond Forest It is always a pleasure to play here staff is friendly and the layout is good price is right and rounds are usually pretty quick 4 hours or less November 18, 2012
Very nice course and in good condition.Will play there again Beautiful course that is well maintained.Very friendly staff.Will play there again.The value is excellent. October 15, 2012
love this course. great value for the money. hardly ever crowded,which makes for a fun round. play from the blue tees is brutal but fun, like the 628 yard par 5 (yes 628). hole no. 1 is like 270 but not easy. hole 3 a 428 yard par 5 with water everywhere is lots of fun. bring extra balls. October 6, 2012
Good couse for the money Not a bad course. Laid back. Good for the money. Yes September 30, 2012
FOUND A GEM THIS COURSE IS CHALLENGING. SEEMS TO BE A HIDEAWAY, NOT MANY KNOW ABOUT IT. LOTS OF WATER , LARGE BUNKERS,PEANUT GREENS. TAKE MY ADVICE & PLAY IT September 27, 2012
Not to shabby we paid $19 for this course. well worth it. we went early in the morning so the pace was good. didnt have to wait too long. there are a few tight holes that you must keep in the fairway. lots of water to avoid too. i wouldnt say this course is a hidden gem, but its certainly worth playing. the sand was in great shape as well. September 26, 2012
Excellent Course; Friendly Staff I really enjoy playing at Richmond Forest. It is a well kept course with nice scenery. The maintence staff does a nice job with the green, fairways, and landscaping. I really like it when courses take the extra time to have plants and flowers around tee boxes. The amount of water and sand bunkers makes this course nice for the seasoned golfer to have a challenging round. But the fairways are wide so it also makes it nice for the beginning golfer. The gentleman in the Proshop is very friendly. I found this course on Golfnow about 6 months ago and frequent it about once a week. The overall value is a great price. Would highly recommend this course. September 26, 2012
This is a great course, just enough challenge for me. This is always one of my first picks because of the fantastic value playing this course affords. Its a little far out, but to me its worth the drive. My only pet peave for this course is the almost flat tee markers,they are hard to see when you are driving up to the tee boxes. Great course. September 26, 2012
Great variety of holes Has five signature holes, needs a great amount of thought and shot shaping, club selection is very important and speed control on the greens. September 21, 2012
Great value Old-style design. Tightly routed holes, therefore easy to walk. Fast, undulating greens. Long golf course if you play from the tips. Will test all aspects of your game. Seek out discounted play. They do frequently offer very reasonable rates. I would like to see different pin positions on the weekend. They always seem to be in the same place. A bit boring. The shapes of the greens lend themselves to some great pin positions... though I never see them use them. That's all I'd change. September 21, 2012
