Cut from a 1,000-acre forest retreat owned by the United Auto Workers, this course meshes seamlessly with the surrounding terrain. Golf Digest awarded the Black Lake Golf Club 2nd place for "Best New Upscale Public Facility." The club was also voted the top rated public course in Michigan by Golf Digest in 2000. The surrounding woods are thick, and there's water to avoid, so you'd better not be a novice if you want to get full enjoyment from this challenging layout.
