Continuing along on my week of posting some of the most dramatic golfscapes I’ve played and photographed over the past couple years we come to the beautiful Links/Quarry Course at Bay Harbor Golf Club in Petoskey, Michigan.

The flagship of the boyne.golf Northern Michigan empire, Links/Quarry grabs you immediately at the clubhouse, then bombards your visual senses throughout the front 9 with 5 holes played alongside the cliffs above Little Traverse Bay.

The Quarry 9 then meanders out into a quarry that features stark changes in elevation, beautiful water hazards and a lot of really creative Arthur Hills design before finishing with two more jaw-dropping holes along the lake, including the fabulous par 3 17th and tumultuous downhill par 4 18th.

What a setting. What a clubhouse. What a departure from the norm of everything I’d ever seen of Arthur Hills’ golf course architecture. We were all blown away by the Bay Harbor golf experience (and Petoskey is a really cool summer beach town, too!), and it got me to thinking:

HOW IS THIS COURSE NOT RANKED HIGHER ON NATIONAL TOP 100 PUBLIC LISTS? ...

Northern Michigan has its own version of quiet luxury — the towns where wealthy buyers escape for long weekends, holiday breaks, and year-round lakefront living. These are the places that define high-end Up North real estate… even in the winter.

We were stunned to have a very special group of readers come by the store for a visit today!  Vice Presidential candidate timwalz his wife Gwen, & daughter Hope stopped by the store to peruse our shelves.

Tim talked with Matt about some of his favorite reads which included Andy Weir’s “Project Hail Mary,” and Adrian Tchaikovsky’s “Children of Time.” And in return, Matt suggested he pick up “Recursion” by Blake Crouch and Reilly shared her passion for “Red Rising” by Pierce Brown!

Hope found our vinyl section and picked up “Dope Lemon” and TSwift’s “1989.”

Thank you to the Walz family for taking the time to come by the store and making this a moment we will never forget. It was an honor to meet ALL of you!

PS: Of course it was Taylor’s Version and yes, Governor Walz is reading True Gretch! 😉
