Welcome to Harbor Point Golf Club's opening hole, an enticing 5-par, reachable in two by the bombers.

Most players will play down the left of the fairway, but watch out, two bunkers on the right and trees on the left will gobble up an errant shots

This hole is not without risk. The green is protected by two large front bunkers, requiring an accurate short-iron approach. The green is generous and expansive making this the perfect prelude to an enjoyable round of golf.

Hole 4 is a 187yd par 3 from the tips with a green that seems to sit in the middle of a beach due to the 4 bunkers surrounding it. Hitting this postage stamp size green would make even the best of pro's happy

In a word, "demanding". This 4-par plays tougher than it looks.

A solid tee shot down the middle to middle-right of the fairway leaves a mid to short iron approach uphill to a deceiving back to front sloping green. A three putt on this devil is more common than a two putt.

The green is well protected by a deep bunker on the left and flat bunker to the right, neither are bargains to get up and down from, further emphasizing the importance of the approach. A par on #5 is a precious commodity and a birdie is pretty much a myth.

The 6^th hole at harbor point was just put in this year. Length on this hole is not a must but a while hit drive might end up on the green. But the smart play is a 200yd shot off the tee to avoid the two bunkers at all costs.

With one of the best views of Litter Traverse Bay, this downhill 400yd par 4 has a view that pictures can't do justice to. OB right and a deceiving green that you won't believe make this another hole that par is a great score.

A look back down the gorgeous 8th, a relatively open and generous 4-par shows the natural beauty that is reflective of the entire golf course.

Hole 8 should be a hole to get your scorecard back on track before the end on the front 9. Its a short par 4 that if you avoid the one bunker should yield you a great chance at birdie.

The finishing hole, an elegant 4-par with tree trouble left and hidden bunkering down the right.

The 9^th hole at harbor point is a great finish to the front even though it does not seem to fit the style of the golf course. That and the clubhouse in the background make this a great hole. A hole that if your drive can avoid all the bunkers should give you an easy par.

A beautiful 5-par overlooking picturesque Little Traverse Bay to the left.

A traditional three shot hole, #10 offers long hitters an eagle opportunity with two well-placed shots, but beware of the fairway bunker to theright as it is reachable by most.

For the average player a short-iron approach must be well struck to this narrow green. Well placed bunkering eagerly gobbles up any wayward shots, placing a premium on accuracy.

On this par 3 you may need to bring an extra club because it plays more uphill than you can see. A miss to the right or short is key but anything left will probably leave you with no chance for par. The green slopes from back to front and from left to right.

The 12 hole is the longest at Harbor Point, and it plays even longer due to it going up hill. It is about 220 yds to carry the bunker on the right. The green is much larger than it looks from the fairway and this makes the approach much easier.

At 206yds this is the longest par 3 at Harbor Point. To make this hole even more difficult this is one of the Smallest greens on the course. If you miss the green to want to make it miss right and you could get a back onto the putting surface.

After a short walk across the road you come to the 14^th hole. Anything right on this par 5 will be just fine. Because this hole plays uphill it is best to play it as a three shot hole. The green complex here slopes more toward the front than you might expect.
