We are still open for golf. The greens have not been aerified and the course is still in great shape. Old man winter will be here soon, so please stop out while you still can. There is no timetable set yet for course closing, but typically the last day is the day before Thanksgiving.

The golf shop is still having our fall sale. Check out the merchandise that is on sale, as we will be open in the shop until Christmas eve.

History and Purpose

Owned and operated by the University of Michigan, Radrick Farms Golf Course is a championship 18-hole course designed by prominent golf course architect Pete Dye. Opened for play in 1965, the 275-acre rolling layout (7,000 yards from the maize tees) is located just east of campus. Faculty and staff as well as alumni of the University enjoy the beauty and challenges of this fabulous course.

Radrick Farms was the gift of Frederick C. Matthaei Sr., loyal alumnus and Regent of the University of Michigan. It is named in honor of Mr. Matthaei's sons, Konrad and Frederick. Mr. Matthaei donated the property and funds for the construction of the course at the suggestion of President Harlan Hatcher.

Our Mission: To provide eligible golfers of the University of Michigan with a superior playing experience on an exceptionally maintained course.
