Michigan hides some of the best public golf in America at the top of the Lower Peninsula and across the Upper. The northwest coast holds the heart of it — Arcadia Bluffs' links-style Bluffs course on the cliffs above Lake Michigan and its Macdonald-inspired South, the Weiskopf and reversible Doak layouts at Forest Dunes, and Arthur Hills' Bay Harbor along Little Traverse Bay. Inland and beyond lie Jim Engh's Tullymore, Jack Nicklaus's reclaimed Harbor Shores and his veteran-honoring American Dunes on the lakeshore, the granite drama of Mike DeVries's Greywalls above Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula, and William Watson's 1927 classic at Belvedere, where the Michigan Amateur was contested for decades. Ten ways into a state that golfers from everywhere underestimate — until they go.
