Donald Ross Memorial at The Highlands is one of Boyne Resorts' most architecturally distinctive offerings, a faithful recreation of Donald Ross's classic design principles set in the dramatic northern Michigan terrain above Harbor Springs. Rather than a direct replica of any single Ross course, the layout channels the spirit of Ross's golden-age design philosophy — naturalistic bunkering, crowned greens that shed mishit shots, and strategic routing that favors course management over brute power. The Highlands complex above Harbor Springs offers stunning views across the Little Traverse Bay region, and the Ross Memorial layout benefits from this spectacular setting. For golf history enthusiasts who appreciate architecture as much as conditions, this course is a genuine pilgrimage destination in the Michigan resort circuit.
The Donald Ross Memorial was developed by Boyne Resorts as part of the Highlands complex expansion in Harbor Springs, designed to honor the legacy of Donald Ross — the Scottish-American architect who shaped American golf course design in the early 20th century. The course opened as a tribute layout alongside the Arthur Hills design.
