Crystal Downs Country Club
|
Crystal Downs Country Club is a private country club near Frankfort, Michigan. Designed by golf course architects Alister MacKenzie and Perry Maxwell in 1929, the par-70, 6,518 yard course offers views of Lake Michigan and Crystal Lake.
Despite being consistently ranked among the top courses in the United States (ranked 10th for 2007-08 by Golf Digest)[1] the only tournament of note it has hosted has been the 1991 USGA Senior Amateur Championship, due to its isolated location far from population centers and the corresponding lack of sufficient facilities (lodging, transportation, infrastructure) needed to accommodate the crowds attracted by major tournament events.
