Just recently named the #4 BEST BARGAIN
in the United States by Golf Magazine
in the February issue. This authentic
Scottish links design captures the
true essence of those famous seaside
courses of Scotland (St. Andrews,
Carnoustie, Royal Troon and etc.).
The Gailes does this by recreating
the look and feel of these courses
by taking those features that make
them so unique. The rugged mounding,
long fescue grasses, meandering burns,
double greens, grassy hollows, rippled
fairways and over 134 sod faced bunkers,
many found right in the middle of
the fairways. Mix in the often boisterous
winds of Lake Huron and it will be
hard to remember you are still in
Michigan. In keeping with tradition
of the game walking is permitted,
even suggested to truly appreciate
the uniqueness of this gem.
If you are looking for something different
and unique, or you have always dreamed
of playing those famous seaside courses
in Scotland, you need only to head
to Lakewood Shores Resort. This
is one course all golf enthusiasts
must play!

BLACKSHIRE:
The
newest course at Lakewood Shores
continues the tradition of giving
golfers a unique golfing experience.
Blackshire was designed to recreate
the look and feel of the famous
Pine Valley G.C. and Pinehurst
No. 2. Although not a replica
of either it offers a similar
rugged look and feel cut through
northern pines and hardwoods,
with large sand waste areas
along the fairways tees and
greens and undulating greens.
Encompassing less than 200 acres,
Blackshire has a classic turn
of the century feel, and with
short walks from greens to tee,
also provides a classical walking
experience if desired.
