Course Intelligence
Course Character
LochenHeath’s identity comes from the contrast between open links-style ground, coastal views and the surrounding orchard landscape. Firm, strategic lines and bunker placement reward confident shot-making, while the scenery gives the round a distinctly Northern Michigan feel. The Club at LochenHeath is an 18-hole Steve Smyers design in Northern Michigan, laid through a cherry orchard near Grand Traverse Bay. Rolling terrain, wide-open fairways and deep, well-placed bunkers shape a links-inspired course with expansive water views. A Scottish-links course on the Grand Traverse coastline
Major Risks
Blue Tee Strategy
Use the wind and exposed bluff setting as part of club selection; conditions can change the effective playing distance. Wide fairways invite a committed line, but deep bunkers and native areas make recovery expensive. Choose the appropriate tee and plan for rolling links-style lies rather than expecting flat parkland footing. Follow the club's current cart-distance and pace guidance, and use the forecaddie for local course knowledge where available. Course management notes
