Dunes' Golf Club
About Dunes' Golf Club
The Dunes Golf Club was founded in 1982 in the Glen Lake–Sleeping Bear Dunes area, opening the following spring as a nine-hole layout measuring 3,152 yards. A second nine was built in the fall of 1989 and opened for play in 1991. At 2,578 yards it plays shorter than the original side, but its narrow, tree-lined fairways place a premium on accuracy.
The combined 18-hole course now measures 5,730 yards and suits a range of skill levels, from casual rounds to more competitive play. The clubhouse includes a pro shop, club rentals and power carts, along with a snack bar serving hot dogs, coffee and soft drinks.
