Richmond Forest

Lenox, Michigan

Richmond Forest Golf Club is an up-scale course, open to the public and located in Lenox Township, Michigan, which began operations in June 1994. W. Bruce Matthews III, a third generation golf course architect whose family has been in the golf course business since 1925, designed the course. Located 30 miles north of Detroit, Richmond Forest is a 6,700-yard par-72 golf course routed around ponds, woods and open land. The course has 8 holes adjacent to any one of 7 ponds and 9 holes playing through woods of beech, oak and maple. Sand and grass bunkers surround large greens making proper club and shot selection vital to a low scoring round. Forty-six bunkers are positioned to challenge the better golfers, yet the large, varied Bent grass tees and wide fairways provide playing options for all levels of play. A large practice facility features target greens.
