About this course
The Masterpiece course sits at Treetops Resort near Gaylord in northern Michigan, on land overlooking the Pigeon River Valley with heavy forests and rolling hills. Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed the course, choosing the site in 1985 and opening it in 1987; the signature sixth hole drops about 120 feet with a wide view of the river valley below.
The layout uses ravines, elevation changes and water hazards across 18 holes, playing to a par of 72 from a length of just over 7,000 yards at the back tees. It is generally considered the toughest of the resort's several courses.
Masterpiece is open to the public as part of Treetops Resort, which also offers lodging and four other golf courses. Golf carts, tee-time bookings and a pro shop are available through the resort.
