About The Quest Golf Course
The Quest was designed in 1994 by PGA Tour professional Ken Green. The course spreads across generous, rolling terrain, giving the layout an open, expansive feel while remaining playable, with a mix of shots that test both a golfer's game and sense of adventure.
The course sits in Houghton Lake, just a short drive from the Houghton Lake Drive exit off US-127, making it an accessible stop on the way to northern Michigan.
