The Homestead – Manitou Passage Golf Packages


Michigan is blessed with a number of great golf courses. Few can offer views that match the breathtaking bluffs overlooking Lake Michigan and the elegance of an Arnold Palmer Designed Championship course. Located minutes from the Sleeping Bear Dunes and a short drive from Traverse City, our course is situated in the heart of one of Michigan’s most popular vacation destinations.

No other course, in our view, can match the combination of golf and amenities offered by Manitou Passage in conjunction with our sister property, The Homestead Resort.  Pairing a round with a spa treatment, a gourmet meal, or just a swim in Lake Michigan is a surefire way to make everyone happy.

Manitou Passage – Cross Country Tournament – September 11, 2016

Manitou Passage - Cross Country Tournament
What, you may ask, is a Cross Country Golf Tournament?

A Cross Country Tournament is basically the same as a regular 4 person best ball, except that we are have taken the liberty of re-designing the holes (not literally). Instead of playing the holes as they currently are laid out, you will play them not only in a different order, but to different locations as well. For example, you may be starting out teeing off from the #1 tee box, but your target green will be #17 instead of #1. You might then proceed to #8 tee box and play to #7 green. You get the picture…we will be playing a total of 9 holes.

Keep one thing in mind, the number 1 goal of this tournament is to “Have fun!” This is a goofy format and there will be some goofy scores, but it will also give a chance to say “Thank You” to those who have supported us this season.

Format:

4 person best shot

Start Time:

10am shotgun start

Fees:

$36 per person, non-members
$18 per person, members

Includes:

9 holes of golf
Cart
Lunch
Prizes! (Let’s just say that the prizes are not your conventional gift certificates. And, remember…this is for fun!)

Advance registration is required by September 2, 2016. Call 231.228.6000.
