Callsign – American Dunes
On the eastern shores of Lake Michigan is the historic Grand Haven Golf Club which was transformed into a national treasure. Sculpted through the deep sands. Inspired by a passion for America.
Built to honor American warriors and fund the legacies of their families. It’s a place of gathering for patriots who share Mr. Nicklaus’ love of the game. And our country.
There is no place like this in America. This is for America.

Often great stories have a crooked road. American Dunes is living proof. Fate brought Jack and Barbara Nicklaus to Grand Haven, Michigan, and with Lt. Colonel Rooney, the three of them cast their vision standing in the sands of what Mr. Nicklaus saw clearly in his heart and mind — American Dunes.
We are humbled and blessed to have Mr. Nicklaus lead this team. His vision for American Dunes transcends golf, serving not only the mission of the Folds of Honor but a safe haven for veterans and their families to find rehabilitation through the greatest game ever played. Jack’s game.
Our logo is a proud presentation of who we are, what we stand for and where we are going. The Golden Bear is filled with the stars and stripes. Each hole at American Dunes will celebrate a Folds of Honor recipient and one of Mr. Nicklaus’ 18 major championships.
A logo to be proud of for a place like no other.
Lt Col Dan Rooney. PGA Professional. F-16 pilot with three tours of duty in Iraq. Husband to one, father to five girls. A friend worth having.
And the founder of The Folds of Honor Foundation.
The beginnings were humble, created by a thunderous life-changing event on a flight to Grand Rapids, Michigan.
The “mission video” recounts that night in storyteller’s detail, we invite you to watch it.
American Dunes stands as a living memorial to the birthplace of this remarkable organization. With a powerful keyword: living. Memorials, by themselves, do not fund scholarships. People do, which is the laser-focused mission of American Dunes — to fund The Folds of Honor Foundation.

Together, we will change lives.
Proudly 100% of American Dunes’ annual profit will be given to The Folds of Honor Foundation to assist in their noble mission — providing educational scholarships to spouses and children of America’s fallen and disabled service members.
To date, Folds of Honor has awarded over $125,000,000 in scholarships to our military families. Our commitment is to Honor Their Sacrifice and Educate Their Legacy.
We encourage everyone who visits American Dunes to become a wingman.
The Camp will be home to 16 patriotic staterooms, carefully curated to honor each branch of the United States Armed Forces. And deep beneath The Camp, The Bunker. A refuge of cold beer, cue sticks and late-into-the-night stories of life and liberty.

The beautiful tradition behind every event is the gathering of friends and family. Our timeless and unforgettable venue was designed to be shared with loved ones – from intimate cocktail parties to elegant wedding receptions.
If you desire an all American theme, American Dunes is your place.
