Summit Golf Course at Shanty Creek Resorts in Bellaire, Michigan is arguably the most celebrated course in Shanty Creek's four-course complex, featuring a legendary Arnold Palmer design that takes full advantage of the resort's elevated terrain and spectacular Antrim County forest views. The Summit course is perched high above the surrounding countryside, with panoramic views from multiple holes across the northern Michigan landscape — including glimpses of Lake Bellaire and the forested hills. Palmer's design makes masterful use of the property's topography, creating holes where the scenery enhances the strategic decisions rather than distracting from them. Summit has been consistently ranked among Michigan's very best golf courses and is a genuine destination layout that draws golfers from across the Midwest.
Summit Golf Course was designed by Arnold Palmer and opened at Shanty Creek Resorts, establishing itself as the signature course in a complex that has expanded to four courses.

The course helped establish Bellaire and Antrim County as serious northern Michigan golf destinations alongside the better-known Traverse City corridor.
