The Big Fore Golf Package, which is entering its 10th season this year, offers beautiful accommodation at Trout Creek Condominiums along with a unique dining and golf experience at four of Northern Michigan’s premier golf courses including:

Black Lake - Part of the 1000 acre Walter and May Reuther UAW Family Education Center, Black Lake Golf Club is northern Michigan’s latest golf creation. Golf Digest recently awarded BLGC 2nd place for “Best New Upscale Public Facility” in America. This beautiful course is owned and operated by the UAW for UAW members and guests, as well as the public.

Dunmaglas Golf Course - Located in Charlevoix, this is the newest member of our amazing golf package. Rolling terrain, mature forests and awe-inspiring views are just part of the story at Dunmaglas.

Hidden River Golf and Casting - Created on a one in a million piece of property, the course has unique features including stands of pine, hardwoods, elevation changes, and the Maple River winding through the site. Five tee selections, with yardage ranging from 4787 to 7101, are enjoyable for everyone. State of the art, full color GPS will help give you yardage, pro tips, and the layout of each hole. Hidden River has combined championship golf with unique upscale dining, both overlooking the Maple River.

Little Traverse Bay Golf Club - Seated upon one of the highest bluffs in the area, LTB offers magnificent vistas of Lake Michigan, Little Traverse Bay and three other inland lakes. This “hidden gem” is a must see stop during a northern Michigan trip. Four tee selections make Little Traverse Bay Golf Club a favorite for all. Elevated tees and many downhill holes add to a player’s enjoyment and confidence.

HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY
~THE ROCK GOLF COURSE~

2008 Golf Digest 4-Star Rating
“Best Places to Play”

Island greens. Long tree-lined fairways. Dog-legs left . Dog-legs right. Abundant wildlife - deer that actually come into play on some holes. The people who love this course play to all levels. They like The Rock because it’s an experience, not just a round of golf.

This emerald was cut out of limestone and is trimmed by hardwood and cedar, crafting each fairway separately over 400 acres. Play on The Rock is controlled. Each group of golfers is in their own game, and virtually isolated from other golfers. Each hole has four tees and therefore, four possible challenges to choose from.

“I like The Rock. The holes are isolated so you can golf in scenic seclusion. The ponds, lakes and waterfalls are too pretty to be called water hazards.”
— Rick Sylvain, former Michigan Travel Editor, Detroit Free Press.

The Rock participates in the Audobon Cooperative Sanctuary System, proof that this isn’t just one of the best golf courses in the Midwest–this is a thriving wildlife habitat as well.

$35 Unlimited Golf in May
Includes cart

FREE GOLF with overnight stay in May
Includes overnight lodging and 1 round of golf for two
Lodge rate $119/nt plus tax
