Timberstone is located in Michigan's UP, two hours north of Green Bay, on the north side of Iron Mountain, on a large, forested tract of land.

True to its name, the golf course lumbers along old-growth forest, iron ore, and granite-lined fairways over varying degrees of elevation changes in a quiet, scenic setting. The fairways are generous, water hazards come into play on six holes, and sand bunkers defend many of the greens and the occasional fairway. It's challenging at 6,938 yards, 74.3/150, course/slope ratings from the tips with five shorter tees, designed by Jerry Matthews.
