The LYNX, in Otsego, Mich., is a mere 22 minutes from downtown Kalamazoo, an easy 35-minute drive from downtown Grand Rapids and just five miles west of US-131 on M-89. And for any folks in NE Illinois or NW Indiana, The Lynx is just two hours from south Chicago.

The Lynx has a course rating of 72.1 and a surprising tough slope of 141 but that is just the beginning. Both nines begin and end at the 2nd highest point in Allegan County, about 90 feet above the valley floor. The front side sends you out and concludes with an uphill dogleg-left par-4. The backside features the course's signature hole, No. 10, a par-4 of 411 yards that boasts a 75-foot elevation drop from tee to fairway along with five other holes along the scenic Kalamazoo River.

After your round, dine at The Lynx Grill and enjoy the views from its westward-facing perch high on a hill overlooking the scenic Kalamazoo River Valley. The menu provides well-priced grill items and golfer fare. The staff provides the ultimate in customer service and a rewarding dining experience. The end of the day sunsets are always spectacular.

So go "Up North Golf without the Drive" and take advantage of the early spring Michigan weather in 2016 and beat the rush at The Lynx, Southwestern Michigan’s best golf courses.
