Course Description

The Lost Dunes Experience begins at the front gates and glides past the rolling natural grass dunes into some of the most dramatic golf of the Midwest. Tucked just off the Southeastern tip of Lake Michigan, Lost Dunes is a truly privileged golf experience.The centerpiece is our 6,900-yard, par-71 course, where acclaimed architect Tom Doak molded 18 distinctive holes to the contours of a reclaimed sand quarry engulfed by 60-foot dunes. Doak unearthed an elite layout that is among the most unique and playable in the Midwest. Lost Dunes'​ rollicking landscape always presents new challenges. Panoramic elevated tees, immaculate fairways and strategic hazards give way to massive, undulated greens where varying pin placements present new challenges and demand a fresh approach every day.There's always a place for family at Lost Dunes, from our spirited Junior Golf Program to family dinners in the clubhouse to warm summer days at our pool. Children can even drop a line and fish in our well-stocked lakes.The striking setting, sensational golf, and elegant accommodations combine to offer members an exceptional distinguished experience. The Lost Dunes Experience.
