The long summer days allow players to tee off before sundown and play late into the evening, taking advantage of excellent twilight rates and sunset views over lakes and hardwoods, making Michigan one of the top golf locations in the country.
Here are five top Michigan golf destinations to visit during the long summer days.
Crystal Downs Country Club
Location: 249 Crystal Downs Dr, Frankfort, MI 49635
Contact No.: 231-352-9933
A basic 9-hole layout was first put into play in 1927, but this course was altered and extended to 18 holes by Alister Mackenzie and Perry Maxwell throughout the years.
They spotted a chance to work on a magical piece of property once they arrived at this pristine golfing area set on a 100-foot-high sand-ridge overlooking both Crystal Lake and Lake Michigan.
Oakland Hills Country Club (South)
Location: 3951 W Maple Rd, Bloomfield Hills, MI 48301
Contact No.: 248-644-2500
For the 1951 U.S. Open, Donald Ross felt his 1918 design was out-of-date and was prepared to renovate it. Regrettably, he died in 1948, and the task went to Robert Trent Jones. Jones' rebunkering was overshadowed by ankle-deep rough. In 2019, the South course was closed for renovations by Gil Hanse and his crew, with the goal of eradicating the Jones influences and reinstating the Ross feel. The course re-opened in Spring 2021.
Arcadia Bluffs Golf Course

The Bluffs Course, which is undulating and open, is known for its wind-swept native grasses, sod-walled bunkers, large fairways, huge greens, and breathtaking views of Lake Michigan.
