Michigan Golf Courses : Roscommon County
Roscommon County is centrally located in the lower peninsula of Michigan. The most prominent geographical features are beautiful Higgins and Houghton Lakes, with the latter being Michigan's largest body of inland water, and the source of the Muskegon River. Both of these large and beautiful lakes are the host of various vacation and living opportunities for thousands of residents, visitors, and tourists each year. There are many challenging Michigan golf courses in the county. This area's history is also rich with Indian tradition as it was the former home of both the Chippewa and Ottawa tribes. Settlers from eastern Europe started to develop the land in the mid to late 1800's, during Michigan's logging boom era. This county was also the source for some of the largest White Pine forests and thus the home to loggers and their support industries. The name Roscommon came from a sister county in Ireland and was officially adopted and organized in the year 1840. Today, the Houghton and Higgins lakes areas are the hub of northern Michigan's summer and winter recreational activities. Houghton Lake is home to two major annual events, The Fall Fun Fest and (Tip-up-Town), an officially registered ice shanty town with the Houghton Lake Chamber of Commerce, constructed at the Lake each January. Let’s see the Michigan golf courses in Roscommon County, Michigan.

This somewhat open course has many tree-lined fairways. Water only comes into play on one hole. The terrain is predominantly flat, but there is some mounding that can cause uneven lies.

Forest Dunes Golf Club is an eighteen hole championship track and part of a private real estate development. The course was designed by British Open champion and architect Tom Weiskopf, and opened for play in 2002. The course design evokes the feel of Weiskopf's other courses, and contains a mix of styles, from traditional parkland to links style holes. There are many natural sand dunes and native grasses throughout, as well as towering pines lining several fairways.

This course features a PGA Tour-designed layout. Water hazards come into play on about six holes. This relatively new course features a full practice facility. The fairways were built on rolling terrain, so you can expect some uneven lies, and most holes are lined by trees.

Michigan Golf Courses Comments:
This course's large greens and fairways are frequently watered, keeping them plush and green throughout the entire season. Water hazards (ponds) come into play on two holes, and there are at least a dozen sand bunkers on the course. The terrain is fairly flat, but there is some mounding that can cause uneven lies. The medium-sized greens are slightly sloped and putt true.
