The Gailes takes its name from the classic Scottish links tradition—Gailes is a storied links complex in Ayrshire—and the name signals an aspirational design sensibility suited to the Lake Huron shoreline setting in Alcona County. Open skies, lake winds, and terrain that echoes the exposed coastal feel of links golf give The Gailes a character unlike most of Michigan's wooded inland courses. The northeastern Lower Peninsula's Huron shore is one of Michigan's less-traveled coastlines, a stretch of beach, dunes, and light stations that rewards golfers willing to drive past the busier resort corridors. A round here combines the links-influenced design vocabulary with the authentic quietude of a county that has never rushed to develop its appeal.
