About The Forest Course

The front nine of the Forest Course was designed by noted golf course architect and PGA Tour professional Gary Koch. The back nine was designed by renowned architect Ron Garl.

Accuracy is a premium on this Par 72 golf course, with its contoured fairways and well-protected greens. This course measures over 6,600 yards and features the signature island-green, par-3 sixth hole.

The front nine of The Forest Course has the “fun” third hole. This short par-4 invites eagles and double eagles. It is reachable from the tee with a well-placed long drive; however, the player choosing to “go for it” faces a formidable task. Water down the entire right side and a green surrounded by bunkers make a lay-up the far less risky choice.

The back nine of The Forest Course has several holes which are not only challenging, but are as beautiful as any holes in golf. The 10th is a reachable par-5 carved from dense forest. This hole challenges the golfer from the tee and the approach shot to the green. The Forest is also famous for its 13th hole, dubbed “Lake Michigan” because of the large lake guarding the green. A par here is equal to a birdie on most other holes. The 17th hole – known as “the partner’s hole” – has met with rave reviews. Water down the left side from tee to green, woods to the right and a firm, fast fairway create a hole that appears wide open but requires skill and precision to play well.
