The power of nature shaped into one of Michigan's most beautiful golf courses, The Fortress defends itself with its terrain, challenging bunkers and signature island hole. Situated just 435 yards from the front porch of Zehnder's in downtown Frankenmuth, The Fortress encompasses 6,813 yards of formidable play on an 18-hole, par 72 course. About 25,000 rounds of golf are played on the course every season.

Designed in 1992 by golf architect Dick Nugent, The Fortress reflects characteristics of golf's early Scottish origins. Fescue-covered mounds reveal well-guarded, sectioned greens. Bent-grass tees, greens and fairways surround 75 bunkers. Each of the huge greens average 7,500 square feet.

Players can warm up on the putting green, the chipping green with practice bunker and the target-oriented driving range. PGA Master professional and Director of Golf Mark Black is available for private and group lessons. Special events, tournaments, clinics and junior programs are scheduled throughout the season.

An outdoor pavilion is ready to accommodate your golf outing or family gathering. Our Friday Night Barbecues on the pavilion have become a local favorite. We are continuing to enhance the beauty of the course with our master landscaping plan. Come and play one of Michigan's best golf courses.
