Hit The Links At Troy’s Sanctuary Lake And Sylvan Glen Golf Courses
 

 

(TROY, MI) – Troy’s Sanctuary Lake and Sylvan Glen golf courses are great destinations for those looking to hit the links this summer.  

 

“With gas prices prompting us all to pull back on our driving, area golfers can take advantage of two great courses right here in Troy,” Jake Pilat, Director of Golf Operations, said.  “Sanctuary Lake provides a beautiful venue for the game, while Sylvan Glen also makes for a breathtaking course with a wonderful habitat for wildlife including owls, blue heron and red-tailed hawks.”
