BLACK FOREST

Nationally Acclaimed - Tom Doak Design

 

The Black Forest is a Tom Doak design that continues to garner national recognition as one of the top courses in the United States. The course is characterized by undulating greens, massive bunkers and unmaintained areas from tee to fairway. Reminiscent of designs by the old masters, this course epitomizes the hot trends of minimalist design while sprawling across 400 acres on Michigan Forest.

WILDERNESS VALLEY

A Beautiful, Classic Gaylord Golf Course

Wilderness Valley is the original course on the property and is considered Gaylord’s first signature course when designed by PGA champion and Michigan Golf Hall of fame member, Al Watrous. Wilderness Valley features large greens, minimal rough and a modest length along tree lined fairways. Golf Digest magazine describes Wilderness Valley as a great “walkers course”.
