Rapid River, Michigan, USAUpper Peninsula

Nahma Golf Course presents a welcoming 9-hole public layout that combines approachable play and scenic Northern Michigan landscape. With lake views, walkable fairways, and friendly amenities, it suits golfers of all levels seeking a relaxed yet engaging round.

Course Overview

Located along the southern shores of Lake Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Nahma Golf Course offers a refreshing experience for players seeking scenic relaxation paired with approachable challenge. This 9-hole public course balances the intimacy of a smaller layout with the rewarding variety of natural features that define Northern Michigan golf. Stretching just over 2,800 yards with a par of 36, the course invites golfers of all skill levels to engage with its friendly fairways and thoughtfully placed hazards.

The layout follows a gentle parkland style, threading through mature trees and open grassy expanses, presenting a rhythm that encourages strategic shot-making without overwhelming complexity. Each hole plays with slight elevation shifts and subtle doglegs that keep attention sharp, while the greens offer firm, responsive surfaces that test putting accuracy without harsh penalties. Throughout the round, players encounter lake glimpses that emerge with each turn, their presence adding a peaceful backdrop to the game without dominating the playing experience.

Designed with accessibility in mind, Nahma Golf Course welcomes beginners and casual players as readily as returning enthusiasts. Its 9-hole length makes for a convenient outing, whether fitting a quick round into the day or combining golf with the area’s other outdoor attractions. Rental clubs and golf carts are available, lowering the barrier for first-timers and visitors exploring the region. The clubhouse, modest but welcoming, serves as a social hub where friendly staff and local regulars gather, enhancing the community feel that defines this locale.

Seasonal conditions influence playability, with best results typically seen in late spring through early fall when fairways are firm and greens are receptive. Walking the course offers added immersion in the surrounding environment, with well-maintained paths cushioning each step though waterproof footwear is advisable during damp periods.

Overall, Nahma Golf Course stands as a genuine Northern Michigan golf stop that blends unpretentious charm with sound golfing fundamentals, ideal for players looking to enjoy their game in a setting that values both comfort and subtle challenge.

Course Highlights

The course features gentle parkland terrain with mature trees outlining fairways, manageable bunkers that frame greens without excessive penalty, and intermittent views of Lake Michigan that add quiet beauty without distracting focus. Its 9-hole design encourages quick play while maintaining variety, making it suitable for beginners and those keen on honing accuracy and short game skills.

We had a great time golfing and enjoying the club. The course was fun for beginners and we were able to rent clubs and a golf cart. Drinks were cold and the food was great! Very friendly owners. If you want to support local and golf right on the Lake, then Nahma Golf Club is a must do!
