Manitou Passage Golf Club
An 18-hole Arnold Palmer design in the Leelanau hills, run with The Homestead resort in Glen Arbor and open to public play.
Manitou Passage is an Arnold Palmer design on rolling ground in central Leelanau County, with a Cedar mailing address. The Homestead describes a parkland course that moves through open meadows, hardwoods and stands of red and white pine, with real elevation change on the front nine and a gentler but still demanding back nine that finishes over water.
The club is tied to The Homestead, the Lake Michigan resort at Glen Arbor, which books its tee times and lists it as the resort’s golf course. Golf Digest lists it as public, and the club reported new GPS carts for the 2026 season.
