At just 5,614 yards from the tips, the course is not going to be the longest you find yourself on, but it makes for a very fun round of golf and is a great walking course. With three (3) sets of tees, golfers, from beginners to the more competitive, can enjoy this historic course. The course has a great flow of golf holes that provide for a fun but challenging round of golf. The early years of golf didn’t see many courses playing on the bluffs of Lake Michigan and yet early Manistee golf pioneers envisioned a beautiful layout of spectacular golf holes on its shores. The current clubhouse was constructed that same summer on the site of the current 14th green overlooking Lake Michigan for just $2,000 and was completed in 60 days. The program is set to award 35,997.80 to the Lakeshore Children’s Advocacy Center and 34,238.04 to the Arc of Manistee County. MANISTEE Little River Casino Resort announced that over 70K would be distributed to two local charities through its Change for Charity program. Opened for golf on just four holes in the summer of 1901, many people picked up a club for the first time and were learning the game since there we no courses in the region.

Don’t let the name fool you, the Manistee Golf and Country Club is open to the public and is one incredible golf value considering you are playing on the shores of Lake Michigan.
