Alpena Golf Club is an 18-hole public course on Golf Course Road in Alpena, Michigan. The club describes a layout with two distinct architectural characters: the front nine reflects a traditional 1930s style with broader landing areas, mature trees and smaller greens, while the back nine is a later, more contemporary design by Warner Bowen with longer holes, larger contoured greens, rolling wooded terrain and several ponds. Reliable published course data lists a par of 72 and Blue tees at 6,459 yards with a 70.0 course rating and 121 slope.
White plays 5,952 yards at 67.8/117, while Red is published around 5,100 yards at 68.8/114. The club dates to 1939 according to multiple golf directories, consistent with its own description of the front nine as a 1930s design. On-site facilities include practice areas, a pro shop, golf instruction and the Rolin Lynx Grill.

Alpena's front nine reflects the course's early history and is described by the club as an authentic 1930s-style design. Multiple golf directories date the course to 1939.
The front nine is characterised by larger landing areas, mature trees and smaller greens. The Warner Bowen-designed back nine changes character with longer holes, larger contoured greens, wooded rolling ground and several ponds, putting greater emphasis on positioning and shot-making.
The addition or redesign of the back nine produced the two-part architectural character that the club still emphasizes today. The precise date of Bowen's back-nine work was not verified in the sources reviewed.
Alpena remains an 18-hole public course with online tee-time booking, practice facilities and the Rolin Lynx Grill. The club publishes a detailed 2026 rate schedule covering standard, senior, young-adult, twilight and junior play.
