Hole #1
No.1-Web-Tour.jpg

Welcome to Harbor Point Golf Club's opening hole, an enticing 4-par, reachable in one by the bombers.

Most players will play down the middle of this wide fairway, but watch out, water on the right catches those wild first tee slices.

This hole is not without risk. The green is protected by two large front bunkers, requiring an accurate short-iron approach. The green is generous and expansive making this the perfect prelude to an enjoyable round of golf.




Hole #10
No.10-Web-Tour.jpg

A beautiful 5-par overlooking picturesque Little Traverse Bay to the left.

A traditional three shot hole, #10 offers long hitters an eagle opportunity with two well-placed shots, but beware of the fairway bunker to the left as it is reachable by most.

For the average player a short-iron approach must be well struck to this narrow green. Well placed bunkering eagerly gobbles up any wayward shots, placing a premium on accuracy.




Hole #12
No.12-Web-Tour.jpg

In a word, "demanding". This 4-par plays tougher than it looks.

A solid tee shot down the middle to middle-right of the fairway leaves a mid to short iron approach uphill to a devilish multi-level green. Best to be on the same tier as the pin, or a 3-putt is almost inevitable.

The green is well protected by a deep bunker on the left and flat bunker to the right, neither are bargains to get up and down from, further emphasizing the importance of the approach. A par on #12 is a precious commodity.




Hole #13
No.13-Web-Tour.jpg

Breathtaking! The signature hole at Harbor Point Golf Club.

Far and away the most photographed hole on the golf course, this straight-away 4-par is well guarded by trees on the left and out-of-bounds on the right.

Don't be fooled by its looks, this hole is very challenging, requiring an accurate drive in the fairway. A good tee shot should leave a mid to short iron approach to an undulating green. #13 is a beauty that is long remembered after the round it through.




Hole #16
No.16-Web-Tour.jpg

A challenging 3-par measuring 187 yards in length from the tips and seemingly always into the subtle breezes off Little Traverse Bay.

Bunkered in both front and back, the tiny green sits primed and ready to accept only the most accurate of golf shots. An excellent test for players of all levels.




Hole #17
No.17-Web-Tour.jpg

A look back down the gorgeous 17th, a relatively open and generous 4-par shows the natural beauty that is reflective of the entire golf course.

The challenge here is to place the ball in the fairway to a club of accuracy. The green is small and slightly elevated, requiring an accurate approach.




Hole #18
No.18-Web-Tour.jpg

The finishing hole, an elegant 4-par with tree trouble left and hidden bunkering down the right.

A relatively short hole that requires an accurate drive, followed by a mid to short iron approach to an expansive green. Two well-executed shots should make for a birdie, the perfect finish to a perfect day!
