Cardinal Creek Golf Course - Course 1 in Beecher
Formerly known as the Shady Lawn Golf Course, this facility has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. The North Course was built on fairly open and rolling terrain. The signature hole is #5, a 365-yard, par 4, which doglegs around a pond. On the South Course, hole #6 is the signature hole, a 514-yard, par 5, which requires a shot to an elevated green. Hole #3 has a creek in play, forcing a choice of either hitting over the creek or laying up. The Center Course's signature hole is #9, a 162-yard, par 3, which requires a shot over a running waterfall and pond to an elevated and multi-tiered green. Roger Packard redesigned some holes in 1978, and Ernie Shrock redesigned the course in 1987 and 1993.
