Ravines and Diamond Springs arent terrible far from you. Quite a few good options around GR, 30-60min drive - The Mines, Thorneapple Point, Quail Ridge, The Meadows. Lots of other kick around courses if you’re just looking to tee it up anywhere. I’m sure I missed a few worth mentioning too, but I’ll let others chime in!

From saugatuck definitely diamond springs and the ravines. The Mines and the Meadows would be the next two I’d recommend.
Basically, I’d 2nd everything Matt recommended.

I agree with everything my colleagues have said, definitely hit up diamond and the ravines, they’re right there. Clearbrook is nice, nothing crazy. The only thing I’d add is hawks head in south haven, it’s 20 minutes south of saugatuck. Really enjoyable course

good call, that one totally slipped my mind. I was trying to think of something south or southeast of Saugatuck but the only things I could come up with were Stoatin Brae or Harbor Shores, and those are both a hike and half

It is almost Memorial Day, so American dunes is also there. About 40 minutes north.

You’ll love it. Diamond Springs is the most “up north” golf I’ve felt in the GR area. Is an easy walk if that’s your thing too

Howdy y’all! I’m new to Michigan, in Grand Rapids, looking for someone to get out on the course with, thought working at a golf club I’d be surrounded by golf nuts but that not the case. Anyone else in GR and wanna play sometime?

Jump on the slack and watch out for the west MI tee times. Things are starting to heat up with the summer here and lots of guys getting rounds in all over GR and the coastline

Family trip to Traverse is booked for 8/6-8/11! We are staying closer to Suttons Bay. I really wanted to get to Belvedere, but looks like the commute is a bit much given it’s a family trip. I heard good things about Bahle Farms so I’ll probably play there. I’m the only golfer on the trip so would love to meet up with other Refugees for a round.
I’d hate myself if I didn’t ask—if anyone happens to have a connection at Kingsley I’d love to discuss if possible.
