Kingsley Club Golf Transportation — Private Shuttles to One of Michigan's Most Exclusive Courses
You've secured a tee time at the Kingsley Club. That's no small thing — and you already know what's waiting for you. What you might not have thought about yet is how your group is getting there.
There's no Uber or Lyft in this part of Northern Michigan. Private transportation needs to be arranged before you arrive — and the earlier the better.
Lakeshore Shuttle & Tours runs private, door-to-door golf transportation throughout Northern Michigan, including the Kingsley Club. One vehicle, your group only, driven by someone who knows these roads. We handle the logistics so the only thing your group has to think about is the game.
About the Kingsley Club
The Kingsley Club is a private golf club located in Kingsley, Michigan, just south of Traverse City in Grand Traverse County. Designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 1993, it's consistently recognized as one of the finest private golf courses in the state of Michigan — and one of the better Fazio designs anywhere in the Midwest.
The course plays through rolling, wooded terrain with dramatic elevation changes and the kind of shot-making demands that reward patience and local knowledge. Membership is limited and access is by invitation only, which keeps the pace of play exactly where it should be and the experience consistently first-rate.
For golfers building a Northern Michigan trip around the region's elite private courses, the Kingsley Club belongs on the same conversation as Crystal Downs — different in design and character, but equally serious in quality.
Getting to the Kingsley Club
The Kingsley Club is located at 3550 Clubhouse Dr, Kingsley, MI 49649, about 15 miles south of Traverse City. Most visitors fly into Cherry Capital Airport (TVC), which puts them a short drive from the club. Like the rest of Northern Michigan, rideshare does not operate reliably in this area — plan your ground transportation before you arrive.
The Right Shuttle for a Course Like This
The Kingsley Club attracts a certain kind of golfer — one who's put real effort into getting here and wants the day to run exactly right from start to finish. Lakeshore Shuttle fits that expectation.

Building a Full Northern Michigan Golf Itinerary?
The Kingsley Club pairs well with the other top courses in the region. If you're making the trip, these are worth considering:
Arcadia Bluffs Golf Club — About 50 miles southwest. A top-ranked public course perched above Lake Michigan. One of the best public golf experiences in the country.
Crystal Downs Country Club — About 45 miles southwest in Frankfort. A top-10 ranked Alister MacKenzie design. The natural companion course for anyone playing Michigan's elite private clubs.
Crystal Mountain Resort — About 25 miles south in Thompsonville. A full golf resort with 36 holes and on-site lodging — a good base for a multi-day trip.

The Homestead Resort — About 30 miles west in Glen Arbor. An Arnold Palmer-designed course at a full Leelanau Peninsula resort, right on the edge of Sleeping Bear Dunes country.
