our history

Take a walk into history and play golf as it was meant to be...

The membership of the Belvedere Golf Club is proud of its course and its history. The Club was founded in 1925 with the course opening for play in 1927. Golf course architecture was simpler in the 20's when our course was built with 150 men and 5 teams of horses. Like Augusta National, the Scottish resort courses and other golf courses of the era, "The Belvedere" offers challenging 3 and 4 pars, with 5 pars that reward aggressive play with birdie and eagle opportunities.

This unique golfing experience has passed the test of time. Take a walk into history and play golf as it was meant to be. On 39 occasions, "The Belvedere" has been the site of the Michigan Amateur Championship! See The Press section for articles about the 2003 Michigan Amateur.
