Treetops Resort - Premier Course
publicTreetops Resort's Premier Course is one of four championship layouts at the Treetops complex near Gaylord, designed by Rick Smith — who has also served as a swing coach to major champions and is based in northern Michigan. The Premier Course showcases Smith's design philosophy of strategic risk-reward routing set against the natural hillside terrain of the resort's Otsego County property. Elevated tee boxes offer long views of the surrounding forests, while the fairways wind through mature hardwoods and open hillside terrain in equal measure. The Premier is a strong complement to the Fazio Masterpiece and Jones Tradition, giving multi-day visitors at Treetops a meaningfully distinct round on each of their days at the resort.
Rick Smith designed the Premier Course at Treetops Resort as part of the resort's ambitious plan to build a multi-architect, multi-course destination in Gaylord. Smith, who is closely associated with northern Michigan golf through his Treetops-based teaching academy, brought local knowledge and architectural vision to the Premier layout. The course opened in the 1990s and has been refined over the years to maintain its place among the resort's most played and celebrated layouts.
