Belvedere GC, Charlevoix, MI

<< < (18/18)

George Freeman:
I grew up in Traverse City and played golf up there my entire life.  I had never heard of Belvedere GC until finding this website in my early/mid 20s.  And amazingly I have only played the course once, almost a decade ago.  I recall really enjoying the course and would have thought I would have been back to visit many times between then and now.  Time flies.  Clearly I need to get back.

I am obviously biased, but in my opinion there aren't too many better places to be in June-September than NW Michigan, golf-related or otherwise...

Cliff Hamm:
Is there a state with better public access courses than Michigan, largely thanks to Northern Michigan? Yes, Oregon is at the top for quality,perhaps, but that is almost exclusively due to Bandon.  For depth of quality Michigan looks like the winner.

I grew up in Michigan and spend a good chunk of every summer in Charlevoix so Im clearly biased.  Nonetheless, I think Michigan is the best state for public golf.


Anyone making a trip to northern Michigan for golf should spend a round at Belvedere.  Especially if they are driving right past it on their way to walk in the footsteps of Tom Coyne.
