Opened in 1991, Tanglewood Golf Club is a 27-hole daily fee facility designed by Bill Newcomb. The course is comprised of three different nine-hole layouts (North, South and West) set among beautiful natural surroundings and topography that offer a challenging but fun golf experience. Tanglewood’s three distinct nine-hole courses also make it a great host for amateur events and outings. Throughout its history, the course has hosted numerous Golf Association of Michigan championships and competitions as well as several Celebrity Pro-Ams. The scenic sixth hole on the West Course features a green shaped like the Lower Peninsula of Michigan that then leads players to the seventh tee box, which is shaped like the Upper Peninsula and is connected with a replica of the Mackinac Bridge.
In addition to the three courses, Tanglewood boasts an all-grass driving range and spacious chipping and putting area that are utilized by its strong junior academy and for other camps, clinics, private lessons and club fittings. Its full-service bar and restaurant is open to the public for breakfast, lunch and dinner and offers views of the course from a beautiful terrace, not to mention, its unique waterfront Victorian gazebo, outdoor patio and banquet hall make the perfect setting for hosting any wedding, celebration or private event.
