With its breathtaking location on the bluffs above Lake Michigan, Bay Harbor’s three Arthur Hills-designed nine-hole courses take players from one extreme to another. Flowing seamlessly along sweeping shoreline bluffs, rugged rock formations, natural dunes and lush woodlands, each Bay Harbor course has its own distinctive personality. Bay Harbor Golf Club courses are played in pairs, each with a different finishing nine — to form three unique 18-hole course routings.
The Preserve
Nestled into the hardwood forest that hugs the Lake Michigan shore, The Preserve is nothing short of a sanctuary - winding through a classic northern Michigan landscape, taking players through wildflowers, lush grass and native wetlands filled with wildlife. The sounds of breaking waves are within earshot, and the course finishes in dramatic fashion with a spectacular par-three situated right on the Lake Michigan shoreline.
The Links
With larger landing areas offset by bigger bunkers, The Links demands your full attention — and rewards carefully-placed shots. Taking its lead from the dramatic courses along Ireland’s North Atlantic coastline, The Links is situated on the beautiful Lake Michigan shore, with miles of uninterrupted views up and down the lakefront. Accented by towering bluffs and windblown dunes, The Links nine demonstrates Arthur Hills design at its finest, combining the course’s unique topography with the native environment.
