Golf in Carleton

Carleton is a small Monroe County community in the flat Lake Erie plain south of the Detroit metropolitan area, a village in the agricultural and residential terrain between the outer Wayne County suburban fringe and the rural Monroe County agricultural interior. Monroe County's character in the Carleton area combines the outward pressure of metropolitan residential development with the farming tradition of a county whose Lake Erie plain has been productive agricultural land for two centuries. Golf near Carleton reflects the transitional suburban-rural character of this part of Monroe County where the metropolitan fringe meets the agricultural interior.
