The Tamaracks Golf Course

Family designed, owned, and operated, there are few golfing experiences across the United States that rival The Tamaracks Golf Course, today’s featured course.

The Tamaracks’ unique history starts in 1981 with the construction of the original 9-hole course by the Hawkins Family. Now, over 30 years later, the course has expanded into a full 18-hole design that is sure to thrill every golfer that steps out onto the first tee. A gorgeous mix of the beautiful esthetics of the Northern Michigan countryside, Tamaracks’ stunning layout guides golfers through picturesque wetlands, incredible greenery, and 18 holes of golf that will test every club in your bag. Playing over 5,900 yards from the back tees, both the front and back nine at Tamaracks offer unique challenges. Both par-3s on the front require accurate tee shots over water – a nerve-wracking way to play two of your first four holes. But fear not: holes five, six, and seven, all par-4s, all offer a clear sightline to generous landing areas. The back nine, playing longer than the front, is similarly challenging – with each fairway and green tightly lined by mature-tree borders. Both nines combine to make this 69.0/125 course/slope-rated course one of Michigan’s best 18-hole layouts.

It won’t take long during your visit to Tamaracks to notice that the atmosphere is one aspect of this golf course that definitely makes it unique. A true community course, you’ll feel right at home in the clubhouse – home to Tamaracks’ famous clubhouse lounge. Offering a wide variety of food and drink options, the lounge is the perfect place to grab a meal – both dine in or carry out. The clubhouse store is another must-stop destination at Tamaracks – with a wide selection of equipment and apparel to help update your bag and wardrobe. Tamaracks also offers a full practice area to work on your game before or after your round.

An incredible golf course with a spectacular atmosphere makes The Tamaracks Golf Course one of Northern Michigan’s premiere destinations. Make this golf season one you’ll never forget with a trip north to Tamaracks – the hidden gem of Harrison.
