About Sweetgrass Golf Club (Island Resort)
Sweetgrass opened in 2008 at Island Resort & Casino in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, owned and operated by the Hannahville Indian Community of the Potawatomi Nation. Paul Albanese's prairie-links routing includes the kind of architectural template-green collection rare anywhere, a Redan, a Biarritz, an island green, and a shared green that two holes finish on. The course was named Michigan's Golf Course of the Year in 2021 by the Michigan Golf Course Association, then took the 2022 Jemsek National Golf Course of the Year from the National Golf Course Owners Association. Golfweek currently has it #10 in Michigan on its Best in State list. For UP destination groups it sits as the more accessible counterpoint to Greywalls, open-vista links feel where Greywalls is rugged Lake Superior bluff. Casino-tier pricing keeps it firmly in the $$ band.
