Elmbrook Golf Course
About Elmbrook Golf Course
Elmbrook Golf Course occupies high, naturally rolling ground above Traverse City, with panoramic views over the East and West arms of Grand Traverse Bay and the surrounding countryside. Fairways are framed by mature hardwoods and pines, and natural areas are scattered throughout the property.
The 18-hole layout plays to a par of 72 and measures just over 6,000 yards from the back tees, though the terrain can make it play considerably longer. Fourteen of the holes feature elevated tees, elevated greens, or both, and several fairways run through valleys bordered by hills or woodland on either side.
