Featured Reserve

Offield Family Viewlands Working Forest Reserve

Formerly known as the Little Traverse Bay Golf Club, this property was an active golf course through the 2019 season. In early 2020, it was purchased by an investor who then agreed to sell it to Little Traverse Conservancy to ensure its long-term protection. This move was made possible because the Offield Family Foundation provided most of the purchase price.
