Welcome to
Mines Golf Club
Up North feel, located in the shadows of Downtown Grand Rapids
Ranked #20 in Michigan’s Best Public Access Courses, Golfweek 2013 America’s Best New Courses, Golf Digest
The Mines Golf Club houses 18 holes of rolling fairways and undulating bent grass greens. The course offers playability from four sets of tees, making your round truly exceptional.
The course gets its name from sitting 150 feet above gypsum mines that were utilized as early as the 1860s. The course features 110 feet of elevation change from the highest to lowest point on the course. Renowned architect Mike Devries and his ability to use the natural features and undulations, has created a unique golf course and “up north feel” set in a unique urban setting.
Conveniently located in the shadow of downtown Grand Rapids, the Mines is an ideal location for your group to get away while never actually leaving.

Back in 2005 when the course was under construction 3 holes for the future par 3 course were fully constructed and built. The course was eventually abandoned and the course was returned to nature. New ownership discovered the untouched Mike Devries layout and hatched a plan to incorporate the holes into a short course. What was originally the first hole has is now the practice area and a new green was constructed on the ridge behind the driving range. The other two holes remain exactly as they were constructed in 2005.
