Black Lake Conference Center
About Black Lake Conference Center
Not everybody realizes that the Black Lake Conference Center - also known as the Walter and May Reuther UAW Family Education Center owned by the United Auto Workers - is open to the general public. It was built in the 1970s on roughly 1,000 acres of remote, idyllic property in northern Michigan. Accommodations range from 228 rooms in the Lodge to a selection of condos, apartments and camp sites. With a massive auditorium, Black Lake is perfect for conferences, retreats, weddings, family vacations and reunions. Rees Jones added the award-winning Black Lake Golf Club in 2000. Other recreation includes exploring the surrounding forests hiking and biking or fishing in Burt Lake, Mullett Lake or its namesake Black Lake, teeming with walleye, bass and perch.Facts

Great fall deals
Obviously in October you'll have the punched greens but for less than $30 a person with a coupon off a hot deal you cannot complain. This week they close anyway but they treat you great and there's a reason we drive 2+ hours to get there.
Black Lake
Arrive early for what I hoped would be a great day of golf. Once we were on the course we never saw a ranger except by the clubhouse. The green were shaggy and appeared not to have been cut. Also there was some damage on the greens. Overall the greens need work. Pace of play was brutally slow. Lots of electronics in the cart...even a clock telling us how far behind pace we were. At the turn we were 27 minutes behind. At 14th tee we were 34 minutes behind with 3 groups on the tee. We left at this point with plans never to return. Far better golf available in Northern Michigan.
Nice track
Fairways were heavily watered and green, but slightly soft due to excess watering.
Bunkers were well maintained
Greens rolled true and fast.
Tough course
Fast and unpredictable greens, breathtaking layouts, great staff, the starter was a little grumpy, love the course!
Always great
This is one of the best courses in Northern Michigan, Championship caliber, greens were great and fast!! Enjoy
Always a great place to play, being late in the season the greens were aerated but still rolled pretty true, we will be back next season 👍
Nice course
Course is in great condition, friendly staff all the way around. Would highly recommend playing here if your in the area.
