Detailed description of Bella Vista Golf Course

Bella Vista Golf Course. previously named Blackberry Patch Golf Club is a Public 18 hole golf course located in Coldwater, Michigan.

The Blackberry Patch golf course first opened in 1998. The course was designed by Earnie Schrock.

Blackberry Patch is located near Coldwater Lake and is a popular summer vacation location for golf and bass fishing. The course rests in the beautiful Lower Peninsula area of Michigan. The locals will tell you the scenery at this course will take your breath away. Six long wooden bridges carry you across the Coldwater wetlands. The longest bridge spands 650 feet.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 7133 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 5173 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 11, a par-5 that plays to 616 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 17, a par-3 that plays to 192 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 11, a 616 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 8, a 387 yard par-4.

Blackberry Patch Golf Club has two very elegant signature holes, #2, a 213-yard, par 3, that features a 70-foot drop off from the tee to green, and #13, a 428-yard, par 4, featuring a dogleg left fairway that is surrounded by Michigan's natural beauty. Solid drives off the tee and a equally adept short game are needed to master Blackberry Patch golf course.

My son and I both got haircuts prior to shooting a round of golf. The barber recommended Bella Vista. We followed his suggestion and was blown away by the layout and beauty of the course. The course was in fantastic condition. Greens were undulating and cut to a perfect speed. Prices were very reasonable for such a great course, $64 with cart for both of us. No crowds. We flew around the course. I particularly appreciated the GPS on each cart. Really helped speed our play since neither of us knew the course. We will play this again this week.

Played it years ago as the "Blackberry Patch" and loved the layout so i stopped in again and was not disapointed. A few more houses in the one area but far enough away from the course to hinder any shot. Under the new management looks like its working and the pricing is the best buy for the challange this course offers. Playing this course from the tips really puts pressure on the tee shot and forced carries that look worst than they really are and get into your head. If you stray you will pay on alot of the holes fairways /greens alike. Must stop and play this track as its 5 minutes off I-69.

Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing

Formerly called Blackberry Patch this course has been renamed, under new ownership, to Bella Vista. Much improvement in course condition and playability has been accomplished in the last 4 months. This is far and away the the most difficult course in the area from the back tees but has become much more playable from the "whites". Plan to use every club in your bag and enjoy the opportunity of creating some imaginative shots. This is a "best buy" for the money.
