Meticulous attention to detail and the absolute pristine playing conditions make Forest Dunes the ideal poster child for Northern Michigan golf.

Ranging from the 5,032-yard forward tees to a championship-length, 7,141-yard, postcard photo-filled paces, Forest Dunes offers an unforgettable experience for golfers of all skill levels.

When finished with any of your rounds for the day, stop in at Tocco’s for some relaxed dining with an impressive array of making-the-turn fare to choose from. If something more formal suits your fancy, make a reservation at Sangomore's for the Maryland Crab Cake appetizer, rack of lamb main course and elegant creme brule for desert.

Stocked with memorabilia items like Forest Dunes logo shirts, jackets, caps or logo golf balls, you're sure to find something to commemorate your visit.
