ENTER THIS KINGDOM ALL YE WHO DARE CHALLENGE THE KING!

Breathtakingly beautiful, the course moves through hardwood forests and open meadows. It presents changes in elevation that are frequent, numerous and expansive. Known throughout the realm of northern Michigan for its immaculate greens and well placed bunkers, Kings Challenge Golf Club was carved from the high lands, creating a sophisticated course that challenges all who dare enter.

Opened in 1998, this course was designed and built by Arnold Palmer and Palmer Design Course Company. Taking full advantage of the natural contours of the land, Palmer Design created a unique and scenic course of incomparable beauty. In Arnold Palmer’s own words, “If we were to pick a place or situation to build a course, this is the place."

Well-manicured, optimally maintained, and royally groomed, you will find King’s Challenge in top condition every time you come to play. Fairways and greens are the finest bent grass. Hilly vistas and elevated tees abound, and are both challenging and rewarding.

King’s Challenge is a hidden treasure worth seeking - for once found it is forever worthy of savoring.

Our Clubhouse features rustic warmth, the charm of two Sandstone Fireplaces, and that north woods comfort that folks find so inviting.
