Detailed description of Manistee National Golf & Resort, Canthooke Valley Course
Manistee National Golf & Resort, is a Resort, 36 hole golf facility located in Manistee, Michigan. The facility has two 18 hole courses: Canthooke Valley Golf Course and Cutters’ Ridge Golf Course.
The Canthooke Valley course opened in 1993. The course was designed by Gary Pulsipher.
The course winds through rolling hardwoods and a white pine forest. The fairways have generous landing areas. However, the moderate-sized, bentgrass greens are well-bunkered, and ponds, marshes, and trees threaten your path to the greens

The longest hole on the course is # 10, a par-5 that plays to 520 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 17, a par-3 that plays to 143 yards from the back tees.
Watch out for # 5, a 447-yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 17, a 143 yard par-3.

I'm an average golfer. I liked that I wasn't dodging water. I'm often on one side of the fairway or the other, and could find/play my ball in the trees. I shot a high score on the back nine, but wasn't frustrated, so I must have enjoyed myself.
