The beauty of West Michigan’s blue lakes can only be matched by the rolling green landscape of our numerous golf courses. You’ll find them all along the Lake Michigan shoreline in New Era, Shelby, Hart, Ludington, Manistee, and Bear Lake. You’ll find courses that challenge you, relax you, and offer wonderful scenic views. Choose from nine or 18 hole golf courses, or if you’re pressed for time, most 18 hole golf courses will allow you to play just nine. Many golf courses have clubhouses, driving ranges, putting greens and pro shops. Be sure to call ahead for tee times and ask about their golf specials. Golfing is great exercise for everyone, and the scenic views are spectacular.

Before you even step out onto the golf course, stock up on all the necessities in one of the area pro shops. Many carry top name brands like Nike, Titleist, Callaway, and Footjoy. Golf shirts, shoes, gloves, and jackets will make you look like a pro! And if you’re looking for the perfect present for the golfer in your life, pick up a gift certificate and let them do the shopping. Need some lessons? Many golf courses have a pro on staff that will help you with your swing and technique.
Local courses in West Michigan don’t charge big-city rates. It’s very affordable to play–and considering the beauty that surrounds you, it’s actually quite a bargain! Some offer a round of golf for under $20, with prices even lower for weekday play. Some courses discount rates during the spring and fall seasons, or at certain times of the day. Just inquire about any golfing specials available when you reserve your tee time, and be sure to ask about senior and group discounts and seasonal memberships. Both Ladies and Men’s leagues are also available at most courses.
Select courses offer food, snacks and drinks to enjoy after a round of golf. Many offer beer and cocktails. Some of the larger courses have banquet rooms that can accommodate over 200 people–perfect for weddings, meetings, and parties. Combine the cozy comfort of the facility with the spectacular views of the golf course, and you have the makings of a successful event. Golf courses aren’t just for golfing!
Throughout the summer and fall, many area golf courses play host to tournaments and scrambles. Some of these are community-oriented and raise money for various charities and organizations. They also welcome company golf outings–and the staff will make sure your event runs smoothly.
Whether you live in West Michigan, or you are visiting our beautiful West Michigan region, don’t miss a good round of golf to make your day complete. Fore!
