Thoroughbred Golf Club

With its four & a half star rating from Golf Digest, the Thoroughbred Golf Club certainly lives up to its prestigious name! Designed by Arthur Hills & opened in 1993, the Thoroughbred offers 18 championship holes that sprawl over 240 acres of rolling Michigan woods. While some call it “challenging,” golfers do return time & time again to play the course. Rated as one of “Michigan’s Monsters” by Michigan Golf Magazine, the course can be intimidating on first glance, but offers enough variation in the tees to accommodate any level of player. Arthur Hills himself said of the course “The Thoroughbred is stunning & dramatic, but fair & playable for golfers of all abilities.” 

Stunning is an accurate description of the course, as it winds through the West Michigan woods, wrapping around cranberry bogs & lakes while embracing the natural landscape. In a review of the course by TwoGuys Who Golf, they called the Thoroughbred “one of the most beautiful and challenging golf experiences in the state.”

With Stay & Play packages available all season long, not to mention the various events & specials offered at the Thoroughbred, it really is a must-play. Drive out for the day if you live nearby & take advantage of our Local Special, or book one of our unlimited packages & play as much as you possibly can while you’re at the resort.
