About The Golf Club at Harbor Shores

The Golf Club at Harbor Shores is a Jack Nicklaus Signature design that winds through a restored brownfield site along the St. Joseph River in Benton Harbor, part of an ambitious community revitalization project in southwestern Michigan's Harbor Country. The course opened in 2010 and hosted the Senior PGA Championship multiple times, bringing national attention to this corner of the state. The layout features dramatic water views, natural wetland areas, and the recovering dunes terrain of the Lake Michigan shoreline just minutes away. Harbor Shores is a genuine championship track with tournament pedigree, and it stands as the premier golf destination in the southwestern Michigan region, offering a world-class experience that rewards skilled shotmaking at every turn.

History

Harbor Shores opened in 2010 as the centerpiece of a major redevelopment initiative in Benton Harbor, funded in part by Whirlpool Corporation. Jack Nicklaus designed the course on a former industrial site, restoring native dunes vegetation and creating wetland corridors along the St. Joseph River. The course gained national prominence by hosting the Senior PGA Championship in 2012, 2014, and 2018, cementing its reputation as one of the Midwest's elite public golf destinations.

Serious golfers seeking a tournament-caliber Jack Nicklaus design on Michigan's southwestern shore with genuine championship credentials.
