About Zehnder's Splash Village Hotel & Waterpark

The Zehnder's Splash Village Hotel & Waterpark was built for family getaways, but golfers can stay to enjoy a round at the nearby Fortress, long considered one of mid-Michigan's toughest and best tracks. The Zehnder's family has transformed Frankenmuth into a vacation getaway convenient for metro Detroiters. The chicken dinners at Zehnder's Restaurant have become a Michigan staple.

Gorgeous Course

Well worth the drive to play. As though as you want to make it by choice of tee box. Absolutely gorgeous course however heavy rain during the week meant the fairways were saturated and pace of play was very slow otherwise would have rated a five. Would definitely play again.

Fortress is a Great Course

Had a great time playing this challenging course. Although the greens had been aerated, it was still alot of fun. All Michigan courses are probably aerated by now. Look forward to playing this course again next year.

Beautiful course conditions

The Fortress was an awesome course. Well manicured and in great shape. Weather was very windy and temps were cold. Front nine was great with no waiting. Back nine was brutal with slow play. 3 hour on the back. Unacceptable. Other than that, will go back without question.

Fortress

Course in good shape. Unfortunately, it rained heavy, and pools of water started to form in some areas of the course in dry conditions this course is a must play.

Best venue in Michigan

Not enough superlatives to describe The Fortress. What it may lack in off-course amenities, it offers in terms of the city of Frankenmuth in walking distance. Shoppes, hotels, restaurants.

Amazing

One of the nicest courses I’ve played. If it wasn’t such a drive for me, I would be there much more often!
