Michigan Golf Courses : Branch County
Branch County is located on the near southwestern boundary of the lower peninsula, bordered by Indiana. It was organized in 1831 shortly after settlers arrived in the Bronson area in 1828. It was named after John Branch, then Secretary of the Navy under President Andrew Jackson. The original county seat was in a town called Branch, near Gilead Lake in the southern part of the county. It began in 1830 with the construction of the Black Hawk Sawmill, built by a Dr. Hill and named for a local Indian chief. This town did not survive because lots were too high-priced. The county seat was relocated in Coldwater, presently the county’s largest city. Branch County grew at a slower rate than the other surrounding counties because of its lack of road and railroad access . Also, Indians living on reservations there intimidated many new residents. The coming of the (Chicago Road), in the 1840’s, (now US-12), changed the situation, and the area attracted commerce and settlement again, including the Union City Iron Company, founded in 1847, which produced the first iron made from Michigan iron ore. Today, Branch County remains a relatively rural, agricultural area with a few nice Michigan golf courses. The Coldwater and Bronson areas are thriving, with several manufacturing facilities including metal fabrication and fishing gear products. This county is also known for its beautiful turn-of-the-century architecture, especially around Coldwater. Let’s see the Michigan golf courses in Branch County, Michigan.

Michigan Golf Courses Comments:
This course was built in the beautiful Lower Peninsula area of Michigan. The locals will tell you the scenery at this course will take your breath away. Six long wooden bridges carry you across the Coldwater wetlands. The longest bridge expands 650 feet. This course has two very elegant signature holes, including 2, a 213-yard, par 3, which features a 70-foot drop off from the tee to green, and 13, a 428-yard, par 4, featuring a dogleg left fairway that is surrounded by Michigan's natural beauty. Solid drives off the tee and a equally adept short game are needed to master this course. This is one of those many great Michigan golf courses.

This course was built on an island. The lush greens vary in size and the majority of them are slightly sloped. However, there are two greens that are severely sloped. The terrain is typically flat and easy to walk, but there is some mounding which can cause uneven lies.
