Golden Eagle is an 18-hole Championship style golf course designed by Michael Morely and Bruce McIntosh. Situated on 210 acres of a former private preserve, Golden Eagle offers spectacular views from its many elevated tees. Designed in harmony with its majestic north woods surroundings, the forests, wetlands, and dramatic elevation changes all help make Golden Eagle a truly golden golf experience. Reflecting the belief that championship courses are not built just for professionals, Golden Eagle offers an impressive variety of play. What can be a serious challenge from the back tees can become fun and friendly from the regular and forward tees. A driving range and large practice putting green with a greenside bunker are available to sharpen your game. The beautiful clubhouse includes a pro shop as well as a bar and grill for casual dining. Take a few minutes to enjoy the great views of the golf course and Eagle Lake from the spacious deck.
