The Fazio Premier at Treetops Resort in Gaylord, Michigan, is a championship layout designed by legendary architect Tom Fazio and remains the only Fazio-designed golf course in Michigan. Opened in 1992, the par-72 course takes full advantage of Northern Michigan’s rolling landscape, featuring dramatic elevation changes, tree-lined fairways, strategic bunkering, and challenging approaches that reward accuracy and thoughtful course management.

Premier combines demanding golf with impressive scenery, including elevated tee shots and panoramic views across the surrounding terrain. Multiple tee options make the course approachable for a range of skill levels, while its precision-focused design provides plenty of challenge for accomplished players; Treetops also notes that the course has held a 4.5-star Golf Digest rating since opening.
