Whitmore Lake Golf Links

About Whitmore Lake Golf Links

This unassuming public track sits quietly in the lakes region of southeastern Michigan, where the rolling terrain and mature tree lines create a more intimate feel than many of the area's resort-style courses. The layout makes smart use of the natural topography, with several holes playing around or near the namesake lake, giving you legitimate water hazards that actually affect your strategy rather than just serving as window dressing. The conditioning punches above its weight class for a municipal-style course, and the greens have enough subtle movement to keep things interesting without being tricky. At a 4.3 rating from nearly 300 reviews, this place clearly has a loyal following among locals who appreciate solid golf without the pretense or premium pricing of fancier venues. Walking is encouraged here, which tells you everything about the pace and atmosphere – this is where you go when you want to actually enjoy your round rather than battle through it. The value proposition is hard to beat in this part of Michigan, especially if you're looking for a course that rewards good shots without punishing average ones too severely.
