I was told toward the end of the 2004 season that Calderone Farms has new owners and that they planned to lower the rates. That was great news because, even though the rates were not terribly high, it will make the hour's drive even more well worth it, (and with gas prices at record highs maybe the overall cost will be the same or better than it was last year).
I really love this course. It is by far the best new course I've played in Southeast Michigan. The track consists of a wide variety of holes, from difficult to relatively easy and including some which appear easier than they are and others which appear tough but turn out not to be so bad.
Number 3 for example, is a quite short par four which curves to the left, but the fairway is narrow and if you miss it and the large waste bunker on the right, you'll be lucky to find your ball and even luckier to eke out a par.
I cannot reccommend this course strongly enough and I am dying to get out there!
