The Leelanau Club at Bahle Farms features spectacular views of Suttons Bay and Lake Michigan. While varied terrain with hills, woodlands, water, and strategically placed bunkers offer a memorable round of golf. The entry way and two holes (#13 and #16) are situated among working cherry orchards, just ripe for the picking in July while golfers plan their strategy to the green.
The Leelanau Club at Bahle Farms has become a golf course people want to play again and again. Undulating greens, tree-lined fairways, and strategically placed bunkers will put a premium on shot making rather than brute strength. Yet, there are a few holes, like #13, a 440 yard par 4, which will require distance as well as direction
The design makes insightful use of the tremendous natural variety of the land. Players will negotiate a myriad of terrain types including ridges, ravines, gullies, orchards, and highland meadows.

Sugar Loaf, steep with golf tradition
Feel the history as you navigate your way around the rolling hills of the golf course. The unique structures and windmills have withstood the test of time and now pave the way for a great Northern Michigan golfing experience.
This classic C.D. Wagstaff designed golf course reflects the architecture of the first half of the 20th Century. Although Wagstaff may not be as well known as a Ross or MacKenzie, “I never hear of clubs wanting to restore their Joe Roseman or C.D. Wagstaff,” Golf Digest course critic, Ron Whitten, once wrote. Put the golf game aside for a moment, enjoy the fragrance of cherry blossoms from nearby orchards, the birds and wildlife that abound from the Northern Michigan surroundings. Or just sit and gaze at the picturesque sunset as it drops behind the Sugar Loaf mountain.
