    Description

    Crystal Downs Country Club
    is a private
    country club
    and
    unincorporated community
    in
    Benzie County
    in the
    U.S. state
    of
    Michigan
    . The community is located within
    Lake Township
    on the shores of
    Lake Michigan
    . For statistical purposes, the
    United States Census Bureau
    defined the community as a
    census-designated place
    for the first time for the
    2010 census
    . At the census, the CDP had a population of 47 and a total land area of 1.26 square miles (3.3 km
    2
    ).
    [3]
    Designed by golf course architects
    Alister MacKenzie
    and
    Perry Maxwell
    in 1929, the par-70, 6,518-yard (5,960 m) course offers views of Lake Michigan and
    Crystal Lake
    . The
    Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
    lies just to its east. Despite being consistently ranked among the top courses in the United States (ranked 10th for 2007–08 by
    Golf Digest
    )
    [4]
    the only tournament of note it has hosted has been the 1991
    U.S. Senior Amateur
    , due to its location far from population centers and the corresponding lack of sufficient facilities (lodging, transportation, infrastructure) needed to accommodate the crowds attracted by major tournament events. Crystal Downs is currently ranked the #19 course in the world according to Golf.com.
