Sweetgrass Golf Club

Sweetgrass Golf Club, in Harris, Michigan, is the captivating centerpiece of the Island Resort & Casino, a testament to the Potawatomi tribe's dedication to honoring their heritage through the game of golf. The course pays homage to tribal traditions and native plants, seamlessly woven into the design and experience. This modern marvel, designed by Paul Albanese, unfolds across a diverse landscape of open meadows, wooded areas, and challenging water features. The course is known for its strategic bunkering and subtly undulating greens, rewarding thoughtful play and creativity. Sweetgrass is player-friendly, offering ample landing areas, but strategically penalizing those who stray too far offline. The course favors shot-shapers who can control their ball flight, and the imaginative green complexes test the skill of even the most accomplished putters. While not a championship venue, Sweetgrass is nationally recognized for its commitment to environmental sustainability and its unique integration of tribal culture, making it a celebrated destination for golfers seeking an authentic and memorable experience. The course also boasts a renowned restaurant known for its inventive takes on traditional Native American cuisine.
