• Holly Recreation Area has a few holes in open meadows, but is mostly a wooded course. There’s an option to play 18 or 24 holes.

• Newaygo State Park offers 18 holes on the park’s pro-quality course. The tight fairways make it a grueling challenge.

• Sleepy Hollow State Park offers a good mix of holes featuring technical, wooded and open fairways. Elevation and water also are factors.
