Kingsley Club, Private golf club in Kingsley, Michigan, US.
Kingsley Club is a private golf course in Michigan with 18 holes stretching across rolling terrain containing 120 bunkers integrated throughout. The layout follows the natural contours of the land without extensive earthmoving.
Golf architect Mike DeVries designed the course in 2001, converting former farmland into an 18-hole layout. The design leveraged the glacially sculpted terrain to create the final playing surface.
Members walk the entire round, which emphasizes the traditional way golf is played and encourages personal interaction throughout the day. This practice shapes how people experience the course and connect with each other on the fairways.
Members can stay in private cottages located near the 17th hole and request assistance from forecaddies during their rounds. The property is situated in Northern Michigan for easy member access.
The course uses fescue grasses and minimal earth movement to replicate playing conditions found on British Isles courses. This approach gives the property a different look and feel compared to typical American layouts.
