White Lake Oaks Golf Course

White Lake Oaks is a public golf course serving the communities of White Lake Township and the broader Oakland County area northwest of Detroit. Oakland County has long been one of Michigan's most golf-rich counties, with a dense collection of public and private layouts that reflect the state's genuine passion for the game — Michigan consistently ranks among the top states in the country for number of golf courses per capita.

The course plays to a par 70, which typically signals a design that leans on shorter, more strategic holes rather than pure length — a layout where course management and precision off the tee tend to matter more than overpowering the card. That format suits recreational golfers and competitive players alike, rewarding those who think their way around rather than simply grip and rip.

White Lake Township sits in a landscape shaped by glacial activity, and the lakes, rolling terrain, and hardwood forests characteristic of this part of Oakland County give courses here a natural visual appeal that changes noticeably with Michigan's four distinct seasons.
