Meridian Sun Golf Club

Meridian Sun Golf Club sits in Haslett, a small community just east of Lansing in central Michigan's Ingham County. Designed by Bob Wilkens and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies gently rolling farmland typical of the region, with mature trees framing fairways and several water features integrated into the routing. The layout serves as a daily-fee facility accessible to the greater Lansing metropolitan area. Wilkens, a Michigan-based architect active during the 1980s and 1990s, designed courses primarily throughout the Midwest with an emphasis on playability for a range of skill levels. At Meridian Sun, the design reflects this approach with strategic bunkering and water hazards that reward accurate shot-making while offering recovery options for recreational players. The property's natural elevation changes provide visual interest and variety in hole presentation, though the terrain remains walkable. The course operates as a public facility and draws regular play from local residents as well as visitors to the Lansing area. Its location near Michigan State University in neighboring East Lansing contributes to a diverse membership base. The club offers standard amenities including practice facilities and a clubhouse with dining services, functioning as a community golf hub in a region with a strong tradition of accessible public golf.
