About

Harbor Shores boasts a Jack Nicklaus Signature layout that plays through a stunning landscape of forest and wetlands. The golf course tumbles across hills and ravines blanketed with hardwood trees, providing a round that is as scenic as it is challenging. Thanks to the massive white sand dunes that edge along the water, the course has a truly links feel. When combined with the trees and natural water hazards provided by the landscape, the golf course becomes a truly formidable test. The seaside location also guarantees that some holes will be played into the prevailing wind. The trio of holes from the seventh through the ninth plays along the water and offer scenic views of Lake Michigan. There are 10 holes that border the Paw Paw River, Ox Creek, and their surrounding marshland.

Play at least once

The course is really a good challenge with difficult greens but a lot of fun. Understanding what line to hit your ball on is crucial and for amateur players to score well would require controlling your ball. All in all had a great day with friends on a beautiful course.

Best Course

The best course we have ever played. Great carts, cart paths, greens, fairways, tee boxes and sand traps. Good price on drinks too.

Perfect sans geese

For the money - invest in a dog to keep the geese from standing and crapping all over the course

We played this the week after the senior PGA tournament and it was still in tournament condition. Even though it was a little wet it was still a great track can’t wait to go back.

Incredible Hot Deal

Playing the course less than 3 weeks before the Senior PGA Championship for $45 is an unbelievable deal! Incredible views and the course was in phenomenal shape!
