Sugarbush Golf Club

This weekend’s featured destination was recently given a 4-Star rating by Golf Digest and ranked #6 on Michigan Golf magazine’s compilation of tough courses alliteratively called "Michigan Monsters." Sugarbush Golf Club, located in Davison just a few short miles from I-69 and I-75, has earned its reputation as one of the best values in golf. Offering an up-north feel without the drive, Sugarbush Golf Club has been a Genesee County gem since 1995.

After undergoing major renovations in the last couple of years, Sugarbush Golf Club now allows the player to choose their own destiny with five sets of tee boxes. Unsolicited advice: Choose wisely. While novices will enjoy the 5,034-yard forward tees, those braver souls have over four miles (7,326-yards) of contoured bentgrass fairways and rainbow-colored, tree-lined landscapes waiting for them. In short, you won’t be given the luxury of going driver-wedge from the tips on this track. The professional-caliber Black tees may carry an intimidating 75.6/146 rating, but they also present some of the best views on the course as a reward.

OK, Shooter, you wanted to play the tips, eh? Then you'd better channel The Great Ones when the back nine comes around. With rolling mounds, long stretches of wetlands and plenty of acreage, the first four holes on the back nine can make or break your round. On the aptly named No. 11 "Eternity" or the 646-yard No. 13 "Long John," you had better be hitting bombs or they will in fact seem never-ending.

After your round, come back to the clubhouse and enjoy the flat-screen televisions, long bar and sports memorabilia accompanied by a good meal. Sugarbush Golf Club prides itself on offering a comfortable environment, whether you're inside the restaurant, the Pro Shop or out on the patio. The banquet facilities are perfect for outings and banquets, and the staff is happy to work within your budget to ensure your next event is an affordable success.

Sugarbush Golf Club originally opened its doors in 1995 and has been home to some of the best golf for the money in mid-Michigan since Day One. So, whether you’re heading out for the first time, or just making a day of it, enjoy your round at Sugarbush Golf Club.
