Where Summer Unfolds
The best days aren’t scheduled.
No Set Plans, Just Good Days
The days tend to stretch a little longer here.



Absolutely an amazing place to stay with great mountain biking, pools, trails, and food. A great family trip!



Explore Your Summer
Some guests come to golf. Others come to ride, explore, or unwind. Most end up doing a little bit of everything.

Summer Golf
Play four championship courses surrounded by the northern Michigan summer. From unique layouts to scenic fairways, no two rounds feel the same.
And when the day slows down, the Doon Brae short course offers a different kind of round that is built for long summer evenings.

Bike Park
Lift-served laps, flowing trails, and the kind of days where you lose track of time. With 22 miles of trails, downhill and cross-country, it is easy to hop on a bike and explore.

Resort Living
Some of the best moments happen between plans. Take it slow with a kayak trip around the pond or a scenic chairlift ride, watch the sunset from the patio, hike in the woods, or settle in by the bonfire. Resort living is whatever you want it to be.

Explore Northern Michigan
The Highlands puts northern Michigan within easy reach. Explore beach towns, scenic drives, local shops, and lake sunsets. All are part of the experience.
