Marquette (Greywalls)

Some say Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is a world unto itself, and after crossing the Mackinaw Bridge, you’ll quickly see why “Yoopers” love this part of the state. From the “border” crossing, it’s a three-hour, well-worth-the-drive journey to Greywalls. Rugged beauty is an understatement on this DeVries design, where he somehow managed to carve out a memorable layout though granite outcroppings; the course’s namesake comes into play on several holes, most notably the par-3 6th. The woodsy setting has plenty of ups and downs, plus breathtaking views of nearby Lake Superior, especially from the elevated opening tee. Forget the scorecard and enjoy the ride.
