From farmhouse to
clubhouse, from fields to fairways Glenhurst Golf Course was established
and opened to the public May 28, 1932. Owned by Redford Township since
1989 and is still being managed and operated by the third generation
of the Hawthorne family. Glenhurst is the busiest 18 hole public golf
course in the State of Michigan.
Hills, valleys and
old trees highlight this course. Golfers understand that nothing can
take the place of time when it comes to mellowing a golf course, and
Glenhurst, like a fine wine, is aged to perfection. No matter where
you stop your cart there will always be a friendly old tree close, offering
shade from the scorching sun. One tree, guarding the convergence of
four holes in the middle of the course, stands particularly tall among
it peers. According to the plaque near the giant, beautifully shaped
old oak, the tree had been there since the American Revolution.

Glenhurst Golf
Course, on Six Mile Road in Redford, was part of an 80 acre farm owned
by Thomas Paulger since 1854. In the early 1930's, a banker in Redford
and husband to one of Mr. Paulger's granddaughters suggested a golf
course to replace the farm that was no longer profitable. Three granddaughters
of Mr. Paulger, along with their husbands Walter Nacker, Clayton Nacker,
and Dewy Hawthorne all agreed to the golf course and they became Glenhurst's
original family owners. The original course was completed May 28,1932
and has been redesigned three times since then with twenty-two additional
acres added. Over the years, numerous developers have attempted to
purchase the golf course for alternative land development. In 1989,
with assistance from the DNR trust fund money, Glenhurst was purchased
by Redford Township. The assistance from the DNR included a pledge
from Redford to maintain the property as a recreational golf course
facility.
