Spectacular Golf Courses and Golf Instruction

Area Courses

The topography, soils and weather conditions in the area are as ideal for summer season golf as one can find in America. As a result, there are numerous courses near the National Lakeshore, several of which are near its most popular attractions in Glen Arbor. Those courses and The Homestead offer uniquely attractive golfing packages. So... bring your clubs!

Dave Pelz Scoring Game School

Dave Pelz, who is widely recognized as the nation's foremost authority on the short or "scoring" game, chose The Homestead for one of his five permanent Scoring Game Schools. And, in cooperation with a noted landscape architect and architect, Pelz designed an all-new facility for teaching shots that are used within 100 yards of the hole. It is now complete and fully operational.

Golfers who attend a one day clinic or three day school at the new facility will lower their scores by learning the same approach to the game that Pelz has taught to touring professionals such as Beth Daniel, Lee Janzen, Phil Mickelson, Se Ri Pak, Vijay Singh, Annika Sorenstam and Mike Weir.
