Course Description
Heritage Glen, built in the mid 1990s, has long been acclaimed as one of Michigan's most scenic courses, set in a well-forested setting in the heart of the state's wine country. Architect Jerry Matthews has used this landscape to great advantage, creating intriguing holes with a great amount of variety and opportunities for golfers of all levels to test their skills. There are some carries over water, but for the most part you can avoid those shots if you wish. It's a player friendly course that also offers great scenery along the way. On some holes, thick with pines, you'll feel as if you're in the Northwoods; on others, wide open fairways have a taste of Scottish links design.
