Rating 72.0
The Loon reaches all levels of golfers with a combination of multiple tee areas and well designed bunkers. Since its opening in 1994 this golf course has been what "Friendly Championship Golf " is all about. The Loon has generous landing areas gently rolling fairways large greens and some of the most scenic views Northern Michigan has to offer.
