Lakewood Shores Resort, Serradella 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.
