Yarrow Golf and Conference Center Augusta (Michigan) travel guide

What sets Yarrow apart from most other golf facilities are our wonderful hotel accommodations that greatly enhance your options for large group events, meetings, anniversary parties, weddings and reunions? Bring the whole group in the night before and your golfers will be ready to tee off first thing in the morning. <p><p>We have 42 standard hotel rooms located in the Larkspur and Chicory buildings, separate from our main Lodge. Each room has two beds, a coffee maker, robes, cable TV and other amenities. Three larger hotel rooms are, located in the Forget-Me-Not building, are slightly larger than the standard hotel room and include screen-in porch and two king beds.<p><p>When Raymond Hearn set out to design Yarrow in 2002, he was determined to carefully preserve the natural surroundings, which through the years have made the area such an appealing place to visit. Working from a well-planned design that required very little earth moving, Hearn created 18 beautiful holes that challenge the best golfers, yet still leave plenty of room for errant shots.<p><p>Yarrow has a links-style feel, with wide fairways and large, distinctively rolling greens guarded by strategically located sand bunkers and high fescue. Every aspect of Yarrow contributes to the characteristics of a course that is an enjoyable experience for golfers of all abilities.<p><p>Hearn?s design respects all the natural beauty of the area, sending the track through groves of Scotch pine, hardwoods, native bushes and grasses, a private lake, numerous marshy areas and the meandering Augusta Creek.<p><p>?The way Ray Hearn designed Yarrow and the way Doug O?Rourke built it, the course is as close to a natural piece of property as you can get,? says Tom Barnhart, Yarrow's Head Certified PGA Professional. ?They had to move very little dirt, so it is very well tied into the natural topography.?<p><p>At Yarrow, you?ll experience dramatic views from the tee boxes, extremely generous landing areas, enormous green complexes, subtle changes of elevation and only two forced carries over hazards on the entire course.
