Detailed description of Lakewood Shores Resort, Blackshire Golf Course

Lakewood Shores Resort is a 72-hole golf facility located in Oscoda, Michigan. The facility has three outstanding eighteen hole courses and an eighteen hole par 3 course.

Their Gailes Course is a links-style design that features sod-faced bunkers and tall heather rough lining all its fairways. There are two double greens like those at Saint Andrews in Scotland.

The Serradella Course is beautiful with flowers and trees. A wide variety of wildlife populates this course.

The Blackshire Course was designed to emulate the style, look, and feel of Pine Valley C.C. in New Jersey. The course has a rugged and natural feel. The Blackshire's 18 holes are cut through hardwoods & pines, and there are large sand waste areas along the fairways, trees and greens.

In addition to the three championship courses, the resort also has the Wee Links Par 3 Course. The Wee Links Course has small greens, except for two that are double-tiered. Deep bunkers hug the greens, and numerous holes are surrounded by tall fescue. A water hazard stretches the length of the back nine and four holes play over it. If you are staying at the resort, there is no charge to play this course.

The Blackshire Golf Course at Lakewood Shores was designed by Kevin Aldridge.

Blackshire, is the newest course at Lakewood Shores. It opened for play in 2001. The course was designed to recreate the look and feel of the famous Pine Valley Country Club. Although not a replica, it offers a similar rugged feel with hardwoods, large sand waste areas, and undulating greens.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 6898 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 4936 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 2, a par-5 that plays to 589 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 11, a par-3 that plays to 125 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 15, a 445 yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 8, a 315 yard par-4.
