Missaukee Golf Course
About
Missaukee Golf Club is located between Lake City and McBain, just a few minutes from the beautiful downtown district of Cadillac. At 6,045 yards from the back tees, the course is player friendly enough for golfers of all skill levels. The golf course sprawls across gently rolling hills dotted with a mix of hardwoods that give it a true northern Michigan feel. This forgiving layout lacks the tougher features that are characteristic of some of the area's most popular courses and provides a more approachable round for beginners. There are five ponds and a small creek that come into play throughout. Missaukee Golf Club is a wide open course that is player friendly enough for the weekend hacker, but there are still a few challenges in store with the water hazards and also several strategically placed bunkers.

5th green. Toughest par four on the course even at only 325. You have only about a 25 yard window on your tee shot to get to a spot in the fairway to have a clear shot at the green. Anything left on this hole is instant death and a sure penalty. Photo submitted by u314161955381 on 12/27/2022

8th green. You can get very close to driving the green if you catch a driver right on the button, possibly even on if the wind is with you, but you have to carry more water than you think. Photo submitted by u314161955381 on 12/27/2022

9th green. The toughest par four on the course after hole 5. Again, you have to hit your tee shot far enough to the corner but too far means you'll go through the fairway. Green slopes SEVERELY from back left to front right. Photo submitted by u314161955381 on 12/27/2022

10th hole. A beautiful par three down the hill with a green that plays smaller than it looks. Choosing the right club on this tee shot is vital. Photo submitted by u314161955381 on 12/27/2022

18th Fairway. This might not be a long finishing hole at only 321, but you need to be aware of the two fairway bunkers which are tough to carry with a driver and cut fairly far into the fairway. Photo submitted by u314161955381 on 12/27/2022
Excellent Player Friendly Course Which Checks All The Boxes
I played on a pretty wet, misty 50 degree day, and there were probably 10 people on the entire course, but man was this a nice course. It's not often you'll find a course in this good of shape in the middle of nowhere, but this is certainly it. These guys didn't just deliver on the basics, these guys went the extra mile to provide for any golfer. All their water jugs out on the course were full and the divot mix on the tees was also readily available. The shape the tees and fairways were in was fantastic. They were a true tour level fairway length and were watered properly. The bunkers were in good shape and all filled enough with good sand, and the greens rolled very well. Was worth a 50 minute drive for sure. I do wish the course was a little bit longer as it's only 5950 from the tips but it is a =n excellent course to play if you're looking to improve your wedge game, as eighty percent of the par fours will leave you with a short wedge in. There are a few tight holes that can really mess with you especially on the front nine (3,4 and 5 is a tough stretch), and the hills are larger than you think, but it is still a very scoreable course where I think even on a bad day you can score in the 70s. I will definitely be back in 2023! :)

Course in Good Shape
The course was in pretty good shape - greens a little slow but true, fairways clean, 2nd cut cut. Overall, was a decent course to play. Only glitch was foursome in front of our threesome were a little slow and didn't offer to pass. But not that bad either.
had a great day it was part of our vacation will be back again
Favorite close coarse
My husband and I continue to come back here, we love this course
Short But Challenging
I was in town for work and found this via GolfNow. While the yardage is short it is a challenge. You have to make accurate shots. Fairways aren’t extremely tight but if you miss you’re not going to be in a great spot for the next shot. Everything was well maintained and the staff was great. I definitely will be back one of these days.
Nice course
The course is in great shape and is a fun course. If your putter is working The course is forgiving enough you can have fun and score
