If you go to one of the RTJ Trail sites like Capitol Hill with 3 full length courses you wouldn't need to drive around.

 

You could but not on the OP's budget.

I'm not sure about their exact timeframe but the RTJ packages are typically under $100/day.

Another slightly outside of the box suggestion would be to come up to Massachusetts. You’ll be 50/50 with the weather in April but end of April/Early May before Memorial Day Weekend you can get some great deals on hotels/Airbnb’s, especially down near Plymouth/Cape Cod.

 

Some awesome courses in Plymouth (Pinehills, Waverly Oaks) and some others on the Cape. Also some cool and historic 9-hole tracks like Marion (South Shore) and Highland Links (Cape Cod) which are super fun for the golf layout nerd and super playable for the 30-caps. Also super cheap. Marion let’s you play all day for $50 so we just had a Ryder Cup style tournament there with 12 guys (9 holes best ball, 9 holes alt shot, 9 holes individual match play).

 

Lastly, there’s lots to do/eat/see in Boston so the less enthusiastic golfers can catch an early season Red Sox game or something while the golf fanatics can choose from a plethora of great public tracks.

It doesn’t work with your timeframe, but Grand Rapids has a lot of really good budget friendly courses. Check out the DeVries trio write up on the Fried Egg.  Plenty of breweries too for those not that aren’t big golfers.
