About Lakes of the North Golf Course

Lakes of the North Golf Course in Mancelona is a resort-community course embedded in the northern Lower Peninsula's vast forested landscape, near the 45th parallel and well within Michigan's prime northern golf territory. The course sits within the Lakes of the North residential resort community in Antrim County, where golfers are surrounded by the type of dense northern Michigan forest that has made the region famous for destination golf. Pineview Drive corridors give the course a remote, wilderness character far from urban amenity. The layout plays through the resort's woods and natural terrain, with northern Michigan's characteristic acidic soils producing the tight, firm turf typical of the region. While not in the same category as Traverse City's marquee resorts, Lakes of the North delivers a genuine northern Michigan golf experience at prices more accessible than the high-end resort corridor.

History

Lakes of the North Golf Course was developed as an amenity for the Lakes of the North resort community in Mancelona, one of many residential resort communities that proliferated in northern Michigan during the 1970s and 1980s. The course was built to leverage the area's natural assets — dense forests, rolling terrain, and the short, pristine northern Michigan season — and it has served as the resort community's recreational cornerstone ever since.
