THE GOLF:
Renowned golf architect Arthur Hills in collaboration with Stephen Kircher planned every detail of all three nine-hole courses, giving each a distinct flavor that challenges you to break par. This course is already a classic on the short list of must plays for any golf devotee. In the inaugural season the Bay Harbor Golf Club leap-frogged to the 8th ranking in the country
THE COURSES:
The Links
Inspired by the great seaside courses of Ireland, the Links delivers unforgettable holes that wind along 150 foot bluffs overlooking one of the deepest blue freshwater vistas in the world. The signature seventh hole was recently ranked in the "Top 500 golf holes in the world" by GOLF Magazine.
The Quarry
Already on the short list of the world's most unique. The Quarry winds it's way around and through an immense shale quarry, complete with 40-foot gorges surrounded by stone cliffs, natural ponds and gentle waterfall. It finishes with dramatic flair down to and along the shore of Lake Michigan.
The Preserve
This natural beauty is a haven for wildlife and golfers alike. Stately hardwoods tower over lush grasses, wildflowers and wetlands- all within earshot of Lake Michigan's shores. The final hole opens up to a breathtaking shoreline view.
