Bloomfield Hills Country Club is one of Michigan's most historic and understated golfing treasures. Founded in 1909, the club features a classic course attributed to renowned architect Harry Colt, making it one of the few authentic Colt designs in the United States. The course has benefitted from thoughtful restoration work in recent years, helping to preserve its original character while enhancing playability for modern golfers.
From the moment you arrive, the club exudes tradition and elegance. The clubhouse sits on some of the highest terrain in the area, offering beautiful views of the rolling property and creating a welcoming atmosphere without feeling overly formal. The golf course is the star of the experience. Unlike many modern layouts, Bloomfield Hills relies on strategic architecture rather than sheer length. The routing moves naturally across rolling terrain, with wide fairways that encourage thoughtful shot selection and greens that place a premium on positioning. Recent restoration efforts by Mike DeVries and Frank Pont have reintroduced several original Harry Colt design elements, including wider playing corridors, expanded greens, and restored bunker styles.
