Arbor Hills Golf Club in Jackson, Michigan, is an 18-hole course with a long history. The original layout was designed in 1925 by golf course architect Arthur Ham, and it retains a classic character while remaining approachable for a range of skill levels.
The routing moves through mature, tree-lined fairways and finishes at fast, well-kept greens. Its strategic design asks for thought on each shot, placing a premium on accuracy, shotmaking imagination and sound course management.
A notable chapter in the club's history came in 1947, when Arbor Hills hosted an exhibition featuring Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson and Jimmy Demaret. The match was part of a national tour staged to promote golf and raise money for charity, and it secured the course a place in Michigan golf history.
